Of course not... he's only 374 pounds. Now if he was 375, maybe... but just a little.

...well it is but the fact he can run faster than most TE's in the league and as limber and athletic, whew. OH THE POSSIBLITIES. If he is nasty day in and day out, we'd be badass. I'd have him in camp trying out for different positions as well can you imagine this guy catching a ball as a TE and running over DB's???

I can imagine him leaping over tall buildings and changing into his Saints uniform in a phone booth. However, his lady is named Liz and not Lois. DAMN.

Sean said a "look see", you damn right it will be a look see, a LONG ONE.

It's just unbelievable all the hype this undrafted kid has received. This youngster has two college games under his belt, and with all the talk you would think he was a first round pick. It's not just the Saints forums, he's the talk all over the net.

D24pick · 05-03-2007, 10:09 PM

Actually he only had two games last year, oh wait maybe you're right

But the guy is a monster. Huge size, atheletic, speed, frame, and amazing strength! I'd love to see him develop on our team then on anothers. I'd like to see him roomed with Whitehead (A super vet, who gets the job done) and Will Smith (Helps From His atheletic Production standpoint). He'd be fine with some good strait forward mentoring. If he wants to be a "n" word, then he needs someone who will give it to him straight up with no play play.

Sorry if it offended anyone, but its true. He has too much talent and potential to get in trouble and wind up like a Quincy Carter.

You got me wrong I'm in this kids corner 100%, it's just amazing to me all the hype. But trying to be the N-WORD is a little of the mark, you have to a little more broad mined, he's just a kid, period. That mentality is across the board, no matter the race all these kids are the same wave length, kids in every race have that same mentality, so in future reference that's not the way to go.

Bobaganoosh · 05-04-2007, 01:34 AM

I refuse to get excited about this guy. All of his physical attributes are wonderfull...but there is no reason to think that this kid has his head on straight. I wish him the best but i wouldnt be surprised if he got cut before training camp.

blacksaint · 05-04-2007, 02:36 AM

That is definitely a possiablity, I'm just hoping he will be a Eric Swann type for us.

mikesaintfan · 05-06-2007, 11:43 AM

this kid has the potential to be awesome but if he is not then no harm no foul
its not like we wasted a draft pick

I feel the same way Bobaganoosh. There's a lot to be excited about with him physically, but in reality, there's a reason why he only played a handful of games. The way I'm taking this situation is that I don't expect him to do anything, but if he does then great. If not, he's just a camp body.
