fullnelson9999 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 interesting article on ESPN, i dont know if we or anyone drafts him but he seems to have potential http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft08/columns/story?columnist=chadiha_jeffri&id=3354379 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jweisk1 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 ESPN featured him...he will probably go in the first round now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[[ghost]] Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 ESPN featured him...he will probably go in the first round now.... I hope you're being sarcastic, because he probably won't get drafted. His injury was quite scary, but you have to feel for the dude. Losing as much as he did in his life, its not fair that he has to lose football too.

Jesus, Mary & Joe Gibbs Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I'd take possibly take him with one of our three 7th rounders and see if he can make a roster spot competing with Mix and whoever we draft at WR early on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I hope he gets picked up and stashed on a practise squad somewhere just to see what he has. Good luck to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooley4President Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I hope someone will give him a chance. Teams take late round risks with players all the time, I'm sure he'll find a home somewhere and get a chance to make a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullnelson9999 Posted April 23, 2008 Author Share Posted April 23, 2008 yeah i hope this guy gets picked and becomes a pro bowler... what a story that would be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCdangerous Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Of all the years I have been a Redskins fan, the one thing I know this team has is heart. If we can take this guy in the 7th round, this will only strengthen our element. And with Jim Zorn having the same religion (or maybe even AS religious) as Joe Gibbs, he just might agree on this one. AND he is over 6ft tall AND he is speedy. Screw the injury. But then again all 32 teams have seen this article and they might want him too.

[[ghost]] Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I hate to put it like this, but I hope he gets a chance and just gets a decent contract. It'd be comforting to know that while he may not succeed in football, at least he prospered financially. It would never replace the loss of his parents and best friend, but it'd be a start.

Truant Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I'll be looking for his name late in the draft. I wouldn't mind taking a flyer but he should gain an invite to camp somewhere. Can't help but wish this kid the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullnelson9999 Posted April 23, 2008 Author Share Posted April 23, 2008 i think the best part is that he could be among the best steals ever, maybe tom brady like...6'2, 205 and a 4.3 forty...wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laxpunk2006 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 i think the best part is that he could be among the best steals ever, maybe tom brady like...6'2, 205 and a 4.3 forty...wow I wouldn't get too excited about the 4.3 he's running a 4.8 right now. That being said I would love to take the kid late in the draft or as an UDFA. Even if he can't contribute as a WR what a character guy to have in the locker room. I don't think we'd ever have to worry about someone complaining when they have a guy like that around them. He seems to really have his head and his heart in the right place. If he can catch a break he could really succeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
