rskin72 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Well, if Kelly wanted him, we know he is quick. Watching the film, he seems to have s second gear....seems to have great cutting ability....and while maybe a little slower than McCoy, certainly shows some flashes of potential talent like that. I think Royster, Helu, and maybe DY are in trouble here. I think Gruden will opt for speed if other variables are equal. I think CT will have a good shot at making our roster because of his speed.....granted that he can show improvement in his overall game and maybe as a returner in ST. Helu, to me, has lost a step....agree with others who have mentioned noticing this last season. Helu is just not as dynamic as before, IMHO. I will be looking for impact this TC/Pre-season from the rookie, and CT...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEONAWARPATH Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Who would be the 3rd RB, then? Helu has good hands and speed (even after returning from injury)...I just can't see anything in Thompson or Royster that would leapfrog them ahead of Helu. From the things I've heard/read, Thompson would ideally be the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyHolt Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I disagree... in fact, I think Helu faces an uphill battle to make the roster Overall good post and you may be right about who is running uphill. I don't know Gruden well enough to say, but is he likely to carry just one back of significant girth? I feel like Young could handle a bigger work load, however, and fill the void should we go Thunder and Lightning aka Morris Lache/CT as our halfbacks. Maybe Royster re-emerges but fear he may need more time to heal fully. I am intrigued at the idea of speed speed speed and being more pass happy than us hardcore Hogs are THE key to Victory long time fans are used to.

Hunter_R Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 Thanks for making the thread, Hunter. Nice job. Welcome Lache (pronounced "lake"). No problem. I didn't want him to feel left out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLongshot Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I disagree... in fact, I think Helu faces an uphill battle to make the roster. I don't see either back replacing Helu this year from the simple reason that Helu has proven he can be a full time back and no one else really has. Thompson so far hasn't stayed healthy long enough to prove anything. Seastrunk probably will take a bit to learn protections and be comfortable back there. Unless Royster suddenly becomes a better player than he has been his whole career, Helu would really have to stink it up not to make this team. Now, he might not be back next year after his contract is up, but that is a different conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexx1240 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I really, really like this pick. I feel like all he needs to do is show strong pass-block ability but I feel that's what the coaches are here for. I also wonder if there's a way we can make him our primary return man. looks pretty damn good to me ... I know its NCAA ball but if he can do this in the NFL I think we have finally found a change-of-pace back to complement Albert Morris http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q3CZNKgnNE Lol just kidding.

jtpop Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Royster is gone IMHO, with this guy in the fold and with Helu being a free agent next year gives us backup options if we let him walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRAVEONAWARPATH Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Chris Russell @Russellmania980 Seastrunk "RG's a great friend, a great person.Just happy to be in the backfield." Says "not a lot" when asked how much he talked w/ Rob Sat Chris Russell @Russellmania980 .@TheGreat_Lache on 980 "I'm trying to go there to earn my keep, so I can earn my spot" says 4.46 is "very inaccurate" 4.34 is his time.

Riggo'sRangers Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Weaknesses Does not run big or keep his shoulders squared to the line. Will press and try to do too much -- can improve patience and do a better job of letting his blocks develop. Very limited career receiving production. Played in an offense that featured big running lanes and helped inflate his production. Can be tracked down from behind. Beats to the tune of his own drum and can be susceptible to hanger-ons. Nope. Yes....when he pulls his hamstring. LOVE this pick-hard worker. Make him room with ALMO for training camp. Difference maker he can be, in Yodi speak.

SWFLSkins Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2013/11/7/5072458/lache-seastrunk-baylor-bears You might remember Oregon's near-disaster with Willie Lyles, the scouting analyst it paid $25,000 a few years back and who just may have steered some recruits, like one five-star Lache Seastrunk, back to Oregon. The NCAA didn't come down hard on Oregon, but Chip Kelly ended up fleeing for the NFL, and Seastrunk promptly transferred to Baylor—the nearest BCS school to his hometown of Temple, TX. http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/news?slug=ys-robinson_scout_details_deal_oregon_kelly_070111 Detailed story about Lache and Chip. Wouldn't it be nice if Lache could eventually run Kelly from the Eagles like he had a part in running him from Oregon? Of course this time it will be by scoring TDs on the Eagles DEF. This and that video have me Seastrunk, like sea sick and drunk all in one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasSkinsFan Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Decided to treat myself to an early present. Every year I buy an autographed rookie card of every Redskin rookies. Here is my first card I got from the 2014 Redskins class It's inscribed with Sic Em, the Baylor hand gesture and limited to only 10. I usually do not post these sorts of odd ball things but thought someone here might like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
