Jake Ferguson and his grandfather

[Hayseed]

Jakes Grandfather is none other than Former Badger Head coach and Athletic director Barry Alvarez. In Wisconsin he is known as...THE EMPEROR. There is a statue of him at the stadium. The man who single handedly resurrected Badger football from the dead all those years ago. Jake was given no quarter because of who his grandfather was,....in fact he was pushed even harder because thats how Barry rolls! Jake is a tough kid with a nice set of hands that goes up and high points the ball. Hard worker,....all about taking care of business. You guys are gonna LOVE this kid.

Slow and not a good blocker. Hoping for the best though

Damn,....all those safety's and linebackers from places like Michigan, Penn State, Ohio state, Oregon, and Miami must REALLY be slow then!

Sounds like Dalton Schultz. Similar size and speed as well.

4.81 v 4.75 in the forty. Do you know how small 6 one-hundredths of a second are?

People here were saying the same things about Schultz on draft day. Now they call him SARGE!

Both 4th round picks, practically clones physically. This place cracks me up.

So those clips of him blocking on running plays and doing it well must be CGI.

Called highlights for a reason.

Who calls him sarge? The board was split on bringing him back ...

So I assume you're referring to me? Check my start date. Who do you suppose I am if I'm hiding my identity??

Weird.

He averaged 400 yards and like 3 tds a year... Get real

You get real. Wisconsin is and has been one of the most run heavy teams in the country. They dont throw the rock much,....and when they do Ferguson is getting a lot of the defenses attention.

Looking fwd to seeing what he brings to the team… seems like a great kid

Thanks for the inside scoop!

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Jake will do just fine.....means Dallas will not have to extend Schultz next season. The Cowboys are not looking for a Kyle Pitts at TE, wouldn't know what to do with him.

 

[OGCowboy]

Cool story. Barry was a helluva coach and football guru.
Kid has some good genetics.

In terms of speed......that's a lot. That's 4 yards difference in the 40.

Weird.

I don't care what your name is, I briefly looked through your post history so I stand by calling you Nancy.....

Stop repeating what you heard Mel Kiper say.
Dont watch highlights. Watch game tape.
