He'll add solid play. He's nothing special though. he has Taco like speed.

We talking taco bell taco, or genuine Hispanic taco speed?

Good. Maybe Marinate can get him to play.

Marinate the Taco and hell definitely play better

 

[kskboys]

This is a New Englandesque signing. A guy w/ a ton of talent who hasn't worked out. Low risk, very high reward type. And we have the type of coach in Marinate who has a knack for getting guys to play.

Isn't Rivera from the Tampa 2 tree. One thing Marinelli may help him with that was one of his weaknesses coming out is hand usage.

Weaknesses
Needs more time in the weight room. Still developing positional instincts and awareness to blocking schemes. Pad level is too high. Exposes his frame and gets locked up. Does not convert speed to power. Unrefined hand use, counters and pass-rush moves. Needs to learn to use his length advantageously. Does not provide enough resistance at the point of attack. Crumbles vs. double teams.
