Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Wow. My only two questions: (1) How low can he get; and (2) How well can he move his feet. Someone that big with leverage and agility has an incomprehensible ceiling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtiger 1,744 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 I imaging he would struggle as a DT, as a OT the sky is the ceiling. He should probably keep his weight down under 325. Tall, long, lean, athletic just give up trying to pass rush on his side. Drive blocking could be an issue. Tallest player I was ever on the field with was a kid from Twin Springs, was probably 6' 9" or so. He was a great Bball player, played football for a year or two. Pretty good QB, would have made a great WR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMan 3,569 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Did you watch the video? Watch the kid for the other team that's about 5'8", 230 get leverage and put him on his butt as the ball is snapped. Several of the guys on WVTailgateCentral who have seen him play say he isn't very good, he's slow, he's got terrible foot work...only has size in his favor.

I was looking for more firsthand accounts than snippets on video, really. The video doesn't lie, but I can't tell much by looking at >1% of the kid's body of work.

redtiger 1,744 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I just read the article at work and the video wouldnt pull up lol Being that tall it would be hard to maintain leverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
