I don't mean to be a jerk... but did you guys even watch Hester run this year????

Not a contact runner???

Not a Bruiser???

Short Yardage only????

You may want to go back and watch his games this year guys.

I won't say his an Alstott, just because Hester has never played an NFL snap. However, I will say he is Alstotts NCAA mirror image. I really doubt anyone (who likes/loves LSU) was worried when the ball was in his hands. So give the kid SOME credit.

Anyway, No, I wouldn't take him. We just don't need a FB, right now. I think he would just be taking up a roster spot on THIS team. I think he would be best served on another team, as far as his career goes.

I believe if anyone was a Alstott image, it would be this guy.

Jehuu Caulcrick, Michign State

In 13 games as a senior, Caulcrick ran for 872 yards and 21 touchdowns (seventh in the NCAA) on 222 carries (3.9 average).

Honestly I was gonna try and discredit Hester because he had more carries, but I see now that they were equal. Alstott 6-1 249 Calcrick 6'0 253. Hester 5'11 222. Alstott and Calcrick were situational rushers when only in the red zone while Hester was used every play. Personally I think Hester shouold go to a west coast offense that can use him to run catch and pass, while traditional offense he would just block.

Thank you kindly Pakowitz for the Hester update. I look foward to seeing Hester play on Sundays, no matter which team or position, well, as long as he doesn't go to the Falcons... lol.
