I like him, he keeps his feet moving after first contact when blocking somebody also it looks like he has some pretty soft hands for a fb.
Like him....
What round is he projected to go in? Might take a flyer on this guy, FB's aren't too coveted anymore, and He could probably do better than Tim Castille and Mike Cox.
Would be nice to draft one and keep him for awhile kinda like how T-Rich wash before we let him go to the Jets. (Dude is still kicking, slowly but he's kicking)
T- Rich is still doing big things up in New York even though he is 80 years oldQuote:

I wouldn't have a problem using a 5th or 6th on him if he is that good, but anything else I would rather take a flyer on hoping to land a diamond in the rough WR, O-lineman or even QB to replace Brodie. Oh don't forget taking a shot on a pass rushing LB or Nose tackle.
I agree with you FB just aren't worth a high draft pickQuote:

Niceness!
For some reason he reminds me a little of T-Rich although T-Rich was used more to open up holes for the RB rather than a rusher himself.
Id have to see more of this guy blocking before I would begin to say its something we should waste a draft pick on, those little FB passes and scrambles the guy wouldnt get 2 yards on in the NFL.
I would gladly spend a 4th round or later on him if we don't get a FB through free agency. We are going to be running a "meat and potatoes" offense and as much as i like castille and cox, the fb needs to be upgraded for our offense to improve. Ideally, we could grab him with one of our 5ths.
My thoughts exactly. The video starts with him making a couple of nice blocks. I would want to know that he does that on a consistent basis before drafting him.Quote:

Uh...I did NOT expect to get that jacked up about a full back. That guy looks like a Boomer Grigsby, but with the ability to match the heart.
He enjoys blocking. Sign me up.
