Newera Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Can you imagine this team after three of ScottyMac drafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stp240 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Yup, Keneen Robinson ran a slow 40 also. I think it was a 4.8X 40. But his game speed is a lot faster then that. False Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LD0506 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Like this kid a LOT! He's been on some peoples radar for a while now, smart, instinctive player, you see him reading plays consistently and putting himself in position to make a play. He's thumper, can really hit but time and time again you see him tackle, not just going for a highlight hit but wrap a man up and hold him until reinforcements finish him off. No, he doesn't have the straightline speed to run down open WRs but good acceleration at the point of attack. Liked the draft overall but this is the kid I'm going to be watching for especially, a nasty rebuilt D line will gives him lots of opportunities.

I figured he would be much faster than that. He's actually really quick for a linebacker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koolblue13 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Paging Koolblue13. Koolblue13 to the white courtesy phone. Still feel this way? Seems this guy is getting some real praise in here. touche olsThe more I see from this kid, the more I think you're right. I still am not sure if he's ideal as a thumper and think Riley improves this year. What jumps out at me about this kid, his vision, patience and closing speed, once he decides where to go. Our ST are going to be sooo much better this year, that's for sure. Outside of FS (both stating and BU) I am loving this defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aireskoi Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Check out his workout at the link. Turn down your speaker first or put on headphones. He's a screamer, he wouldn't last 1 rep in Planet Fitness lol. His feet are too fast for the camera and he has some crazy endurance. Didn't see the workout posted yet, might as well build the hype. http://www.wholehogsports.com/videos/2012/dec/18/7999/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0crates Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I think you guys are really going to like Spaight. Flew under the radar after only 1 year of production coming from junior college, but will outwork anyone and plays with some fire. Not easy to lead the SEC in tackles. And yes, he did light some people up on kickoff returns. We called it getting #SpaightedThanks for this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanut0862 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 At his size we could move him to SS and let him and Jeron Johnson fight it out to fill that void Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Always A Commander Never A Captain Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 ESPN's article on him sounds amazing: http://espn.go.com/blog/washington-redskins/post/_/id/17243/bret-bielema-on-martrell-spaight-incredibly-intelligent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peregrine Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I really really like this guy from what Ive seen of him. Not much, admittedly, but out of all of the 3-7 round picks, out of all 8 of them I think him and Crowder to me look like they will make the most impact. Spaight seems tough, smart, and while not flashy decently quick. I could see him replacing Riley next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genghis Khan Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Posted this when we drafted him. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a lot of playing time as a rookie.http://www.wholehogsports.com/videos/2012/dec/18/7999/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonez3 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Soooooo, it seems he likes to hit people....HARD. Just got through his tapes, WOW, love the aggression and just overall effort into each tackle. And I mean tackle, actually seems like more times than not he actually wraps up and will try to stop forward momentum. Very nice... Led SEC in tackles, not a bad accolade.
