Apparently, the veteran combine's 40 timing method makes times slightly slower than the actual combine's time, so his time would likely translate to somewhere in the 4.40 - 4.49 range.

 

5'11 & 177 lbs measurables. Not terrible for a potential scrappy slot receiver type. Plays professionally in Japan and it seems as if he dominates the competition. He was invited to Atlanta's 'international practice squad' a few years ago and Baltimore's training camp in 2013, apparently impressing.

 

 

Caught some awfully thrown passes in this highlight video, and seems to have some shiftiness and tenacity.

 

Training camp fodder? I'll take it 10 times outta 10. Love guys that have something they're trying to prove. He likely can't hang with NFL talent, but deserving of a look IMO.

      Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts?

      It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
