Army Vet gets one last shot at NFL


Recommended Posts

Would you take a chance on a 7th rounder or UFDA on this guy?

 

It was an interesting story.   At 6'-9" at minimum you have a Red Zone threat?  I don't care how much a vertical leap a DB has he is never gonna out jump a 6'9" TE.  (Well most of the times)

Story also mentions a player from ECU.

wheres the part of the story about the guy from ECU? i dont see it at all..

 

im assuming it would be about Justin Jones since this article is about a tall TE [Justin is 6'8" ; but he was off the ECU squad this year] but only see a brief mention about an app state player.

Ummm. Yea plently of tall guys have given it a shot but height even 6'9 isnt always enuff. Id rather waste a 7th on de anthony or archer from kent state. To much talent in this draft to waste a pick on a novelty player like this guy. Undrafted sure wht not bring him to camp. But not a pick.

In the video there's a quick mention of "Kendrick" (aka Reese) Wiggins being draft eligible. Guy called him by his first name instead of the name he goes by

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
