Saw this kid was a last minute JUCO recruit, and figured he would be a project... bus saw some comments from PSU coaches and thought I'd check him out...
First, sounds like he's around 280lbs. now, though the film was when he was around 260lbs..., that said, the kid is REALLY quick for his size... running down RB's in the backfield, and WR's down field... He was aparently a TE also in HS, and he looks like COULD play DE and be quick enough to get around the edge... BUT, with another 20-30lbs of muscle.. this kid could be a MONSTER at DT... which might be exactly what Franklin & company have in mind...
All of a sudden, DT might not be nearly as big of a problem to me as I had thought it might be... We'll have to see how grades and pre-season practices go...
