Ekom Udofia DT, Stanford

CantonLegend · 04-24-2010, 09:39 PM

seems like we picked this guy up as an UDFA

6'2.....320lbs

WHO DAT, WHO DAT!!!!!!! Proud to be a member of the Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints, feeling blessed and even more motivated.....

quote from his twitter Ekom Udofia (Ekom54) on Twitter

Udofia is a solid player. He can occupy multiple linemen, while adding some pass rush when left one-on-one. At 6'2" and 310-pounds he has the body size for an NFL nose tackle.

NFL Draft preview - Ekom Udofia

projected as a 7th round pick......struggled with an ankle injury during his senior season

projected as a backup NT in the NFL

well then hope he can bring it

"Scouting Report: One of the top juniors in the nation, Udofia has incredible strength and quickness. Great explosion off the line of scrimmage, breaking through double teams before blockers even get set. He bench presses 390, squats 605 and vertical jumps 30-inches. He carries a 4.1 GPA (on a 4-point scale)."

This should be a physical, nasty training camp.
Gonna be a lot of competition.

He is a beast!!!..REPEAT!...lol

He has the size of a decent sized bear and the strength of one too, from the sounds of it!

This is his chance to shine in the NFL with the Super Bowl Champion Saints!

We'll soon see if he can step up when it counts the most...

Good Luck to him.

The article says, "The Cardinal linebackers can roam freely thanks in large part to Udofia's ability to take up multiple blockers." Anyone else think we oughtta be looking for some of those linebackers to put there behind him?

Sounds like a good player, trainingcamp will be interesting.

He's smart too and some more depth at DT I like it.
