Holley was an awesome special teamer. The best player on that show was Andrew Hawkins though.

Yes, I thought that and was disappointed when Irvin picked Holley instead.

That's what I'm guessing though it hurts my Dan Vitale in the 6th dream.

Not sure it does. Falls would essentially just be a camp body since he isn't at all proven as an NFL fullback.

He looked much better at FB...decisive, quick, caught the ball.

At LB, he struggled to get off blocks, and what they called chase downs was more of him running and hitting a guy the team was holding up...lol.

Roosevelt Falls will be getting his shot at the NFL.
The indoor football star of the Duke City Gladiators in New Mexico has been asked to workout for the Dallas Cowboys this week. Falls received the news in late March.
“I said are you serious? I’ll be there! I’m humbled to have this opportunity," Falls said, via Andres Trujillo of the team website. "I am blessed with this opportunity.”
In 2010, Falls went undrafted out of Louisiana Tech where he played as a fullback and special teamer.




Here's my question: How does one become a star in indoor football as a Full Back?

Hawkins was already gone by then -- I think to Kansas City.

No. The winner of the reality show was guaranteed a spot in Dallas' camp. If Hawkins had won, he would have been in Dallas' camp.

Of course, I think he went to CFL after Irvin's show and didn't end up on an NFL roster until a year or two later.

scoring TD?

Maybe. When I read "star," I assumed QB or WR. Rarely do you ever here the word "star" and "fullback" in the same sentence....let alone referring to the same player.

I agree but he lead the league in rushing TD. Seems they used him more than just a traditional FB he caught passes for TD as well as ran for TD. As I said earlier I don't know if he can make it but I like seeing guys get the chance when it looked as if they would never get the opportunity. Here is his chance

Thanks for taking the time to share this news.

:thumbup:

I think that this team can upgrade the fullback position over Tyler Clutts.

can you get rid of that sig pic of yours already? why do you continue to shame Tom Landry?
