Australian plays Madden and finds it fun, makes NFL roster 1 year later.

Who cares?

You asked the question about Messi and I answered, now you taking your ball and going home cause you know not a single NFL player could transition.

But in the end, why would Messi take such a massive paycut to play a niche sport

 

[I AM WARHOL]

If NFL players are the best athletes, why can't they transition

Cause the NBA requires being proficient with a ball. And also has an average height of 6'5". You're limiting athleticism to what you can do with a ball in your hands

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

actually I just about thot about it, this happens all the time in the nba as welll.......

Depenidng on the coaching:
Undersized centers become pf's.....

PG's become SG's
SG's become PG's
SF's become SG's
etc.....


Doesn't always workout, the only reason its more frequent in the nfl is because there's more positions to swap from.....


But a PG isn't going play the 5, unless they're on some LBJ or NBA 2k myplayer steeze.
Just like an offensive linemen isnt going magically start doing kickoffs or play safety....

Shutup nikka.

NBA players are anomalies when it comes to height

Actually, that's because he has a base in the Real Football, if you want your child to be a good athlete start them off with the beautiful game If you can dribble a ball with your feet, you can pick up any sport.

Real talk. Soccer was my first love. Personally, as much as I'm caping for football there's no way I'm letting my son play past like 6th grade. Concussions are no joke. I'm giving my son a soccer ball, a basketball, and a tennis racket. Love watching football but Ima let another persons son do that

 

[ProfessorXavier]

You NFL stans crack me up

*girl walks in front of the tv, gettin her model on in some lingeré*

Dude: "bytch, get out the way! Im tryna watch the combine!!!"


(Later during the season, his girl let's him have his Sundays all to himself to watch football, while she fukks his friend who is a casual football fan)

No one is denying that the NFL has incredible athletes.

What we're saying is that the game takes very little skill outside of 2 positions (QB/kickers.)

Cream of the crop athletes from every sport could come into the NFL for tryouts and have a legitimate shot because the sport requires so little skill. But even the freakiest of the NFL's freak athletes couldn't just walk onto an NBA court, an NHL rink, an EPL pitch, because those sports require immense amounts of skill that're cultivated over years on top of being athletic.

Then how come track stars don't become top wrs? Any 300 pounder should be an all-pro left tackle.

Track stars stand to make more money just running on the circuit and killing endorsements, why would Usain Bolt play football when he makes $21 million a year and does like 10 events a year. Work smarter, not harder.

Cool.....

Odell Beckham vertical - 38.5"
Jordan Farmar vertical - 42.0" (Farmar is taller too )





What am I supposed to be seeing here?
Am I supposed to be impressed?




He couldn't cut it in basketball, switched over to Football with very little training and is a star, thank you for helping me

46" vertical, couldn't even make the NBA, he should have tried out for the NFL since he's 6'5" and jumps higher than anyone that has ever played in it.







Gronk would be a better basketball player than football player?


He's 6'7" 255lbs and is called "undersized" for the NBA, he's a better athlete than Gronk as highlighted by that struggle dunk you showed



6'5" 260lbs and far more explosive than that shytty dunk of Gronk These guys could have transitioned to football like Gates, Gonzalez or Graham, but they can make more money playing in the NBA. We know for a fact guys that played basketball and are around 6'5-6'7" and 230-260lbs can make the switch to TE in football, that is a fact, everything you've posted is assumption. The undersized NBA power forward is 6'7" 245-260lbs with a 35-40" vertical, Gronk had a 33" vertical.....the perfect NFL TE is probably in the NBA right now and doesn't even know it.






@ Real Football, sorry but the shyt with the odd shaped ball is not real football, and it's far from global. It's participation rates are under 3 million globally, meanwhile the real football is played by 2.6 billion people, while roughly 1 billion people have played basketball fukk otta here. Nobody outside of the US gives a fukk about handegg, 98% of the viewers for the Superbowl were in the US, the other 2% was from Canada & US bases abroad.

The point is all those guys I posted could play in the NBA (Gronk and Graham even played basketball at one point) and it isn't a dunk contest don't matter who has the best dunk as long as they all CAN dunk, and most of them are big guys that would be used just for their size alone the way scrubs like Kwame Brown are used for their size.



Like Stephen A said to Jalen Rose in that exchange its players in the NBA strictly for their size but these guys are freak athletes too so they'd definitely have success, you frontin like every NBA player can play and is skilled like Jordan or Shaq but its a ton of scrubs in the NBA (and even more mediocre role players) yet you never hear of scrubs in the NFL cause its more elite even the cats you namin who transitioned to football are skilled at their positions. And don't think I ain't notice you skippin over JJ Watt cause you couldn't argue against him(he'd be a legend in 3 sports) you just picked certain parts of that post to respond to while ignorin the rest when you didn't have a comeback.

Those stats you pulled out your ass on how many people play which sports confirms what I thought that you on some troll shyt in here, it doesn't change what I said that football has a presence in Europe Asia North and South America along wit Australia. You gettin giddy at more people likin soccer worldwide as if popularity is a barometer for skill/talent, by that logic I guess you think Drake is the best rapper alive.

Every fast player isn't a great wide receiver. Its pure hate to say the NFL positions don't require skill. Every position is a specialist, as opposed to the NBA where everyone does the same thing, basketball is a much more simple game w less moving parts. Its like checkers vs chess.

And there's a pretty good chance bolt would do nothing in the NFL.
