Mike formerly from Florida Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Poster on BB.com who is a UK fan said we will love this kid. He's intense, hard working and plays all out. He will make the big catches to keep possessions alive and will "will" himself to get better. He is a true TE and not the H-back people keep mentioning.

Brandon Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Hope so. The best thing I can say about that pick right now is that he's probably better than their backups, although perhaps that's more a reflection of my opinion of those guys than anything.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Not sure what the knock is on having an "H-Back." Dallas Clark and Chris Cooley are pretty good "H-backs" who play a lot of TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dallas Clark and Chris Cooley are pretty good "H-backs" who play a lot of TE. I agree. I think the problem with the 2007 Bills H-Back was the personell not the concept.

Stl Bills Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 You mean KU? He went to Kansas, right? Not Kentucky. I wish he went to UK then I wouldn't be forced to hate him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grouse89 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 played in a pretty aggressive O there. he is a real athlete too. i think he has a shot. A lot of people say he isn't a recieving TE but idk about that I think he could be a decent one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Real Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 If you watched his combine workout the kid looked like an athlete. Ran well for a guy his size and seemed to be able to catch the ball pretty well. I'm not really certain of his blocking skills but I can say I've seen him make a few pretty good catches. 46 receptions in his senior year with impressive athletic ability. I'm excited to see what this kid can do. The Bills have 3 or 4 options at TE coming into '08. I'm certain they'll find out which ones excel. Hopefully one is Derek Fine.
