Army Vet gets one last shot at NFL

[MtnJax]

I actually remember watching this guy play at Army. He did more blocking than catching since Army runs the option

Yeah. He even got a SI article as well. Something about not having a lot of experience, but had the desire to go with the measurable. But, that was a few years ago. Where is he now, as to football?

UDFA for sure. Just for the story. Always good to have one of those stories in camp.

Yes, I remember last year when certified dirtbag Pete Carroll brought in that dude who just got out of serving a bogus 10 year rape conviction. It's a simple, easy way to bring positive attention/pub to your team and your personal brand.

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

 

oh ok yea reese is a stud.. didnt watch the video thanks!

If he is cheap then sure.

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.

 

Near the end when they were talking about who really had a chance.  It mentioned this guy and than someone from ECU and a couple other guys. (actually didn't hear his name and didn't go back and watch it again)

Justin Jones of ECU is every bit 6-7. He has one catch people remember, and that is a Hail Mary against Tulsa on opening week. He's a big guy but nothing more than 7-UDFA.

Just give him a chance at 6'9. If he can catch the ball it doesn't matter how fast he is as long as the ball is thrown high. Good story just helps his draft stock honestly

The ECU player the article was mentioning was Reese Wiggins.  Justin Jones likely won't, and shouldn't, get a shot in the NFL.  The school and coaching staff gave him every opportunity.  The guy was taking remedial summer classes, was given countless extensions, and still wouldn't do his work.  Terrible work ethic, entitled attitude.

I knew the guy. We lived on the same floor in Jones hall freshman year. The guy has the tools you look for but his attitude, as well as many others I met and tossed football with left me with a sour taste forward the team in general. Several players were good guys, named Dwayne Harris and another guy who was a freshmen I met but he was an undersized OLB.

I like the running back for ECU (can't remember his name) and think he could be a priority free agent gem.

Cooper is a beast, but he's about 5'8 and not really that big and doesn't posses top end speed.  Justin Hardy and Carden will be ECU's next two higher picks, and Isiah Jones in a couple years.
