6'3" 225 lbs, 4.3 sec 40 yd dash. I had forgotten how big he was, did not know he was that fast. I really enjoyed watching him play. I first heard him mentioned by a guy from Texas around 1980-81 when Dickerson was at SMU. I kept up with him somewhat at SMU after that and thought he might not do that well in the pros. I thought his legs looked a little small for his size and that he might not last long in the pros if he made it. I was wrong. He had great speed and good power. Great running back...he made it look so easy at times. A lot of people took him for granted, myself included. Thanks for the video.

      Time to Start Roughing Out the '26--Needs and Pecking Order

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Ok, we ain't making the playoffs unless something insanely crazy happens and plus it's November, time to start planning for the draft this spring.  Pretty simple, list our positions of need, address in the draft (or left to FA) and round we should draft that need. Currently we have 8 selections, the actual slot in each round still to be determined by finishing order, but I can't see a huge swing one way or the other. (This as of Week 10) Needs: (no particular order) ILB, CB, DL, Edge, S, QB, IOL, OT Rd1: ILB/EDGE Rd2:OT Rd3:Edge/ILB (opposite of round 1) Rd4:S Rd5-a:CB Rd5-b:QB Rd6:IOL Rd7:DL

      XL is a bust

      Isn’t XL the player Nicole Tepper told Canales to trade-up for during draft day?

      Yeah it is along the lines of ‘fraud vitiates everything’, it just prevents an honest assessment.  You got guys with some acknowledged issues, really swimming upstream due to the quality of the QB.    I think back to game two this year when he got a lot of targets and was unable to do anything. When you look back nothing, or maybe one, was in a decent place for him to get.  I think it was week two. And ‘a lot’ maybe be overstating but there were a few.
