Well to be honest the more inside you play, the less bright you need to be. A boy his size will have to now two basic thing. Beat up the three guys in front of you and go get the ball. Kinda like in a bar room brawl.
Well there is third.
FUMBLE, JUMP ON THE BALL, JUMP ON THE BALL.
All I want him to do is break a few noses and make people sh*t themselves when he hits them. Collecting heads is good thing. You do not need a high IQ to do that. I am a bit old fashion about interior play.

I think he just found BOTH!! Missile, you're absolutely correct: You must run around this guy. Especially if he's next to Hollis!!

Hagan, I just bought a pretty big HD TV...... I HOPE he just hits 'em real hard. I don't wanna see sh*t in HD!

We'll see, but I'm a big fan and supporter of this kid. I hope he makes it because he could turn out to be the biggest (no pun intended) find in NFL history. Let us not forget, Hollis Thomas was undrafted as was Norman Hand.

He sounds like he has everyting he needs physically to be an excellent DT for us. The problem is he also sounds like he's the type of guy mentally to jump offsides on 3rd and 4 with the game on the line and all we needed was a stop to seal it. Maybe he can be coached up, maybe not.

Lets not even talk about a Fry station with this guy.....

Not only does he have a problem academically, but he already needs to lose wieght. You think that's going to be easy in NO? Is he going to be the second coming of Grady Jackson?

is making sure this kid stays our of trouble. Ya know he was cut from Oaklahoma for 'Conspiracy to comit robbery'. They need to get his ass in line and hopefully he realizes someone is taking a chance on him and giving him an oppitunity so its up to him to make the best of it.

I think he'll be okay playing around 340-350. He is going to be put thru our conditioning program so I don't think getting there will be a problem. We need a space eating run stuffer... it's not like he's going to have to drop to 320 -330. Look at Hollis, he's well in that 340-350 range.
