I bailed early but a guy that brought it was Jobity

[shu 49]

He’s a true sophomore. Signed at 6-4, 250, listed at 263 this year . His father was a hoops player and he grew up playing soccer and basketball if I’m not mistaken. He’s going to be lean to begin with. I don’t think he started playing football until,his junior year.

if he could get to 275 next year that would be great.

Yeah he isnot a cuttoff shirt gun show type of kid yet. lol

I know u guys are gonna pick on me but Jobity needs the dreaded weight room workbig time. He did a great job and never quit but he still looks skinny. is it just me or no. i think 15lbs of pure muscle would make him pretty unblockable. what do u guys think.

I don’t disagree with this - but he played as a true frosh last year and really should have redshirted. I’m sure Fran and Co will work with him this offseason.

He will Probably fly south

But will he carry a coconut?

Depends if he’s African or European.

Would love to add Raikes (inside DL), long shot with MacKinley, and don't sleep on Perry (almost 280 and an animal). At CB we're decimated. You have more faith in Bellamy than I do (bust IMO). Delaine has potential, but we're looking pretty good for Harris and Barnes - both immediate upgrades. Would be amazing to add them.

Lastly I had Caden Brown on the DL because that's where he's listed, and there has been commentary from money3189 (Post 273), GoSU96 (post 274) and sutomcat (Post 290) that his skill set is DL not LB.

Yup Caden needs to bulk up to get in the DL rotation. He can get away with playing LB if he's in a rush OLB type of role. He's just a natural edge guy. I wouldnt force a kid to do something outside of his strengths.

Yeah, I could see Caden used in a 3rd down personnel package as a rush edge at some point.

Do we think Thompson can get back to pre-injury form?

That's racist.

Only he knows that. And maybe his medical team.

If they go to a 4-2-5 I think he would definitely drop down , but he needs to get his first step back. Kid was explosive off the line with really good lean. He’s lost some off his change of direction as well.

He’s been ok against the run this year, still a good tackler

Great points.

If we’re being honest i don’t think Caleb made more than 3 plays the entire season. I believe he will move on.

Caleb has been around for 6 years. He would have to apply for a medical red shirt to get another year.

 

[GoSU96]

Great points.

Not as in effective as Von, but the injury had an impact. Should be better more time to recover, the kid was such a playmaker . I thought in his role he was better than Jones and Wax

I don't see where he fits in the new scheme. I don't think he's quick/explosive enough to play DE, and to small for DT.

I truly think he may have nfl potential. hope im right.

I thought he did great last few games. why the other backer went to wisconsin.
