For me its his vision. Never will forget a NFL Films Steve Sabol interview of John Riggins talking about the most valuable asset to a RB is his eyes, his vision; his balance and burst is maximized because of great vision...

I'm sure our fellow B&G poster Rugby Saints will appreciate this kid's journey. Really good Rugby player, outstanding citizen and college player.

Gotta believe every time he pointed to the sky after scoring a TD, mom was pointing right back.

I hope he does well at the next level. Definitely has the mental toughness.

Henry Ruggs III - WR Alabama

Fast guy (if not faster than J Reagor), burst off the line. He's on the "smallish" size, will need to add more bulk. Good catch radius (perfects the diamond technique) solid hands. A lot of Bama WR;s transition to the next level pretty well.

I hope he ends up in the AFC.

Speed talent is there, but does he have the frame to add more muscle?

My issue with Ruggs was that he disappeared in a great many games.

We've got that Houdini in abundance in the WR room not named Michael Thomas...

K you were so right! I would loved to have been able to coach this kid. He's got all the tools to get the job done. I want him and I want him bad!
