RE: Scott Fujita has scheduled visit
Haha yes, definitely an upgrade. My family lives in Dallas so I got to see a couple of Cowboys games this year, and Fujita was not spectacular but very solid. Here's a scouting report on him:
Quote:
Fujita is a tall rangy linebacker who has long arms. He delivers a great blow and plays with good leverage on the line of scrimmage. He has a knack for getting rid of blockers and does not stay blocked. He finds a way to get to the ball. He has very good upper body strength and has very good block protection. He is a long strider who shows the ability to run plays down from behind. He can accelerate to finish a play and shows good ability to come off the edge and challenge the offensive tackle to the corner. He does an excellent job of getting hands on and re-routing receivers and shows good awareness in zone coverage. He is fluid in his movement and does a good job with play recognition. He is somewhat vulnerable to low blocks and does not have the initial foot quickness or the running ability to stay with tight ends beyond a short area. However, he plays with good intelligence and takes advantage of angles. He has good change of direction skills and gets a great break on the ball. He is a very aggressive hitter who wraps his arms on the ball carrier. He plays with a good level of intensity and is a very productive player.

ESPN.com has graded him as a 72 which means "good starter." They also have him listed as the 8th best sleeper FA this year. Another good thing about him is that he has NEVER missed a start. With all of the injuries that our crappy LBs have had, a little bit of consistency would be nice. |
