^wellsaid^. He's like 'MEAT" from Porkys. lmao..I luved his interview. He's just a big nasty Country boy that luvs the game and luvs to play violent. He thrives on being nasty. Its in his entire demeanor. For him, playing with aggression is like getting dressed each day. I like it.
Love the Porkys reference!

"I had the Ridgeway pick pegged since way back in the 8th grade
when we went cow tipping on Old McDonald's farm."

Bohanna isn't going to give up the job. Just saying.

Hopefully, Bohanna improves quite a bit. He didn't make much of an impact last year as we mainly used Watkins on the nose. I expect Ridgeway to be about what Bohanna was, but maybe he'll surprise. We could definitely use someone on the nose who crushes single blocking and forces doubles.

Not great athlete even at 6'5 321.



I think my guy is not only BIGGER but more fluid.


Kiper was a big fan of Noah Ellis, son of former Lion Luther Ellis. He is now an Egirl and I would not be surprised if he at least makes practice squad.

Ridgeway is more of a disruptive presence, but has trouble staying low, and so loses the leverage battle and gets washed out of plays. It all comes down to whether he can stay low.

What I'm hoping is that the increasingly better attitudes of the players we are bringing in starts rubbing off on guys like Bohonkey.

I mocked him to us several times. Mostly in rd 3. He's a great pick in rd 5. I really like his tenacity and power inside. He can bull rush well but doesn't have great pass rush moves. I bet DQ can show him 1 or 2 that will help him there. He can stuff the run and hold up inside, really likes to punish ball carriers and I dig that.

It's tough at 6-5 to keep low and keep your leverage. Hopefully, we can teach him because we need a force in there to clog up those middle lanes. I think Watkins did about all he could, but he just doesn't have the heft to hold up to doubles.

He was the NT I wanted in UDFA.

Very fluid for 6'4 360.



Also wanted this kid as 3-4 DE.



This guy good too.

Odd for a HS Heavyweight State Champion wrestler to lose leverage battles.
