It seems like Rambo is out of the picture, which breaks my heart, but this guy might be a good fit as well.

From what i've read he's a great athlete. He has solid size for the position at 6'0 210 lbs. Only concern is the level of competition though. Not saying it will hurt him cause a lot of guys from smaller schools have enjoyed success in the league, but watching tape when he's playing against a bunch of lower class athletes doesn't help much tbh.

Not sure why Rambo hasn't received more mention. He's a perfect fit for our D and I think he'd be available in the 3rd. I guess the whole weed thing has scared off Jerry and co.

...who needs a "LINE" on either side of the ball? Boring, mundane, drudgery of "BLOCKING" is left to teams like the 49ers, Ravens, Seahawks, Packers, Giants, Patriots, etc....

I love rouse being from fresno state, but the guy is too small. IDK, unless they're looking at him as a KR/PR type guy athlete type.

I like 5'7" backs lol don't know why, but always have. But I am impressed as to how he plants his foot and just goes whatever direction he feels. And the guys vision is pretty good at finding the holes. I think the zone-blocking here is perfect for his style. He has to get better in pass-protection, but that comes with coaching(still a vacancy at this moment).
Again, for me, it's just how he plants his foot, then "BOOM" he's off. I also like how low to the ground he runs at the goal line, he is a hard back to locate with a nose for the end-zone and great receiving ability.
If you build it, he will run...

Interesting that everyone skips over this part and just assumes we aren't concerned with the lines.

Typical.

I don't know why the team would be interested in Jonathan Cyprien. He is more of an in-the-box safety and played very close to the LOS more often than not. I don't think that is the type of player you want playing 2-deep zone in a 4-3.

It's still the same defense though. He didn't mention the year, only the defense.


Plus he's wrong about Cyprien anyway.
