I know absolutely nothing about him but that FB


Recommended Posts

Isnt there a ilttle matter of his obligation to the Army after his graduation from West Point?

 

No. Apparently they passed some new rule where persons in service academies who are drafted to the pros can serve their time working in recruitment centers and doing the bi-weekly Army Reserve reporting. They were making a big deal about it on ESPN after another player from Army was taken in the draft.

He does look like a beast...but isn't he only like 5'9"?? Not sure why that sounds bad for a fullback, as I suppose they don't need to be all that tall...

 

Lets hope this kid can turn into another Jason Peters-like project.

 

Actually, the lower center of gravity for this position is a bit of a benefit.

You dont need to be tall to block people below the waist, guy lowest to the ground wins the battle, should be a good blocker.

Probably, but no ones even seen him play. It's just a little silly. He might struggle vs Darian Barnes for all we know.

Agreed but given that we are only bringing in one rookie Fb and that the FB we have on the roster isn't established here in any kind of way at worst he's got a 50/50 shot at making the club.
