(Merged) Day Two Picks

I think he was the top rated FB according to SI. He also was considered a day one prospect to them so I am sure that we took him due to highest guy on our board.

GREAT PICKUP!!!!!! I have wanted this guy all along. I don;t know why we got the FB from UCLA but because this guy is going to be a stud. He is huge, has great hands, and can block. Best pick of day 2 for us!!!!

you guys think this might be joe's way of improving the special teams ? just a thought.

From what I have seen of him he is a punishing guy between the tackles. He should be a great compliment to Portis as long as he stays healthy. He also has great hands out of the backfield. He is a huge guy. I was completely blown away when I saw him run at the combine were he timed at 4.55.

could it be gibbs is gonna turn these guys into hbacks???

drew54 · 04-24-2005, 05:10 PM

I think White will be a HB and a short yardage RB. This could be the end of Ladell Betts.

I think we're gearing up for some serious heavy jumbo around the goal line

drew54 · 04-24-2005, 06:31 PM

It cant hurt the special teams.

I still think some of these picks might be projects for HB or TE.

That Guy · 04-24-2005, 08:44 PM

I think ALL of our day two picks are projects to play special teams while waiting to see how they do at RB/FB/H-B/TE etc... (ILB for both LBs, though one ALSO played FB in college too)

That Guy · 04-24-2005, 04:42 PM

well, we got 2 FB, an ILB and a FB/OLB with our day 2 picks... hope one of them can block...

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 04-24-2005, 05:13 PM

Did anyone else see this monster on the NFL network's coverage of the combine? WOW! He ran a 4.50, weighs in at nearly 250 lbs., and looks like the biggest, baddest, and most cut monster I've ever seen. The downside is he is 26 years old (he served in the Army before college) and a little raw.

With his size and speed, he could be a terror is coached up. I honestly think this guy is the best pick we made (in terms of value and risk v. reward).

What do others think?

wolfeskins · 04-24-2005, 05:16 PM

is there a link to an article about him ? i havn't seen him and don't know anything about him either.

I'm just glad we kind of have an answer to middle linebacker... at least more so then before.
