PCS Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Welcome to the Redskins young man. Now go get 'em. HEIGHT WEIGHT ARMS 5' 11" 182 lbs 29 7/8” HANDS 8 3/4” Prospect Grade 5.25 NFL BACKUP OR SPECIAL TEAMS POTENTIAL Combine Results 40 Yard Dash 4.48 SECONDS Bench Press 16 REPS Vertical Jump 33.5 INCHES Broad Jump 113.0 INCHES 20 Yd Shuttle 4.45 SECONDS https://www.nfl.com/draft/tracker/picks?pick=23 Quote Player Bio Given Tech's history of producing NFL defensive backs and emphasizing special teams, it's no surprise Stroman will get interest from scouts. A dual-threat quarterback in high school (1,544 yards, 17 touchdowns passing; 1,233 yards, 15 touchdowns rushing), Stroman played a role in all three phases of the game as a true freshman in 2014. He played in 13 games, starting once while playing on offense (two carries for four yards, one reception for six yards), defense (three tackles, pass breakup), and special teams (36 returns for 249 yards). Stroman carried a bigger role on defense as a sophomore in 2015 (24 tackles, two interceptions, five pass breakups), though he still contributed as a rusher (seven carries, 12 yards) and as a punt returner (31 returns, 241 yards, touchdown). He was a second-team All-ACC selection by league coaches in 2016, starting nine games at cornerback (13 tackles, three interceptions, 10 pass breakups) and excelling as a kick (22 returns, 460 yards) and punt (25 returns, 221 yards, touchdown) returner. Stroman moved up to a first-team all-conference defender in 2017 (20 tackles, four interceptions, 11 pass breakups), and also an honorable mention selection as a return specialist (35 returns, 397 yards, two touchdowns on punt returns).

SkinsHokieFan Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Now Jamison won’t be needed to fumble punts Torrian Gray is going to build a dynamic secondary. I can’t wait. Stroman will shine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaLazarou Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Another aspect apart from his punt return ability is that as a best bud of Tim Settle he could help to get the best out of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crabbypatty Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Thank God we finally got a returner. Hopefully he sticks and can be our full time guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redskin21502 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I assume Gray recruited him to VT so he should know all about the young man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 What I am most jazzed about relating to him is he's a big time punt returner. A number of TD returns, etc. i like Crowder as a slot receiver but to say he was a train wreck last year as a punt returner doesn't quite even cover it.

Est.1974 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Hopefully Crowder never gets on the field as a return man again. With the pick up of Quinn, he's on notice big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panninho Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 "The summer before Stroman's senior year of high school, he worked out as a cornerback at Virginia Tech's one day camp where the defensive backs coach said that he would play on Sunday's. The coach was Torrian Gray who will now coach him for the Redskins." https://247sports.com/college/virginia-tech/Bolt/In-state-safety-hearing-from-Virginia-Tech-Others-118034329 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OVCChairman Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 This is the sleeper pick I'm rooting for the most. My wife actually used to work with his mom so I've got a bit of a personal connection that way. I have a feeling his return skills are going to make him valuable, and he could push some of the other DBs for a roster spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardshock Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I feel like we may have got a steal here. Let's hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OVCChairman Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I agree What kills me is he ran a 4.48 which in the standards of reality is really fast, but in football terms is not breathtaking. When you watch those punt returns, he looks like the fastest guy on the field by a large margin. I hope it translates, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t wait. Stroman will shine @SkinsHokieFan, Given that you're a VT fan and likely watch all of the games, what's your take on Stroman as a possible 4th CB in the depth chart? How does he stack up to Fuller or is he a big step back? Starter potential? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does he stack up to Fuller or is he a big step back? Starter potential? If i can chime in.... I could see him in the slot, but he's a little undersized to do it. Hes got plus instincts and ball skills, but you wonder about his open field speed on the outside, and how he plays at the LOS. If he can add a little weight without forfeiting speed, he absolutely could be a dime corner. Quick feet and good vision would help him inside against shifty type WR that you generally see in the slot. His draft profile primarily focuses the concerns on size, and very little concern about football ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I noticed this part, too. They mentioned "bone thin legs" and "unlikely to carry much more additional weight on his frame" in his draft profile. I'm guessing that special teams is the most we can hope for with this one and we'll have to hope that one of our CB draft picks from 2016 develops into a starter.

Malapropismic Depository Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 DeAngelo Hall is the only player in VT history to have more Return TD's than Greg Stroman. So, what's the story on why he fell to the 7th ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like an NFL training staff, diet group, and weight lifting regiment can help, but you can see his legs in this picture. As a contrast I put a picture of Fuller up too.
