Re: Hightower signs with 49ers
Thanks for all the effort Hightower, you ran hard and made sure you left everything on the field when given a second chance in the NFL.

A one cut guy that is a much better between the tackles. He does have a great ability to break tackles, pick the correct hole and a nose for the first down. He gets those hard earned yards and create yards when there does not look to be a hole. Wyoming did not throw to him much. He stayed in to block a lot and developed into one of the best pass blocking backs in the draft. This is probably the reason he was used as blocker more than a receiver. The few times they did he look pretty natural catching the ball. But short yardage and goal line duties look to be his ticket into the NFL. Pass protection and blitz pick up skill set will keep the door open to expanding his role. (4 - 5) |
