YoloinOhio Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 Ran a 4.62 40... Hardly seems like NFL speed That's why he was only brought in for a try-out, and played at East Central. Likely a PS at best with roster at 90 now. Good size and vertical though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dollars 2 donuts Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Man, it makes you really appreciate how for some of these guys have to come, and some do, like Freddy. From Coe College, the lower arena league, living in his mother-in-law's basement to making 10 plus million dollars over the course of his NFL career and probably finishing as the third leading rushing in a franchise's history. Not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 A quick google search said he had a 38.5" vertical leap. 6'4" with that kind of vertical is pretty impressive. Congrats to him for the opportunity. Maybe he can be this years Da'Rick Jasper trick football thrower guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at the table Karlos Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) More interested if Ramsese Barden can do anything as a redzone specialist . do redzone specialists ever work out? The only one I can think of is mike vrabel. Also if they are good in the red zone wouldnt they still be good anywhere else on the field?

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'm going to wager that zero of them make the final roster. I suspect they are fighting for one or two spots. I think these 4 make it for sure: Williams, Watkins, Woods and Goodwin. Then you have the rest.... Easley has the whole special teams rockstar thing going for him. I wish Barden could play. He's a monster. Graham is in for the fight if his career. Lots of tall guys with decent speed. They are definitely trying to find a player with those physical parameters out in the weeds. Indeed... Red Zone specialist skills should translate to chain moving skills, imo. Like plexiglas Burris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 I think the Bills are being generous on his height.

The Oklahoma heat in August and September caught Holley off guard. “Oh, I was cryin' — I almost passed out,” Holley said with a laugh. “I kept saying, ‘How do you keep practicing and playing in this weather?' It was just so hot when I first got here ... but then again, I'm not fond of the weather back home. It's already freezing up there.” Another interview.

Mark Vader Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Do you fellas think any of them will make the team?? I think Barden has the best chance, with Elliot having a slight chance.
