MrEpsYtown Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 This guy is versatile and did some interesting things for the Hokies a couple of years ago. Also a former walk on. https://www.sbnation.com/nfl-mock-draft/2017/4/24/15295318/sam-rogers-los-angeles-rams-virginia-tech-fullback-2017-nfl-draft https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/08/15/bills-sign-fullback-sam-rogers/
TigerJ Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 It may interest some that new Bill Albert Havilli is thought to also have potential at fullback. NFL Draft Scout lists his primary position as fullback and only secondarily as DE/DL.
Marv Levy Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Nice signing. What happens to DiMarco? On a side note, its amazing that the so called "Flagship" station of the Bills, WGR, does not have this info on their website!! I have to come to "The Stadium Wall" to get that information. 2

Gotta have another for preseason and camp reps regardless. and i think Daboll might like two players who can lead block at the ready
Bills757 Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Rogers is a workaholic....he’s tough.... he can block, catch and run. FB is a rarity these days which is why he’s available.

Expand I like the nice reports from you and B Rush. like i mentioned i think Daboll likes a lead blocker. Now one that can do all these other things ? That is icing on the maraschino cherry. I love Full backs and i miss Sam Gash 1

But having someone clearing that lane / gap always makes me smile. am old school admittedly. Love the running game. Kyle is my Hero : ) he should trot the ball into the endzone unscathed, unfettered and looking fantastic. We have Kyle. ☺️ 2

Bills757 Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 (edited) Here are some Sam Rogers highlights. Good all-around player. Blocks, runs, catches passes and even throws passes...haha. By the was, you'll see Wyatt Teller (#57) and Cam Phillips (#5) in these highlights as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SlhGeR4zkk&t=49s&frags=pl%2Cwn Edited August 16, 2018 by Bills757 1

Expand ....DiMarco probably stays....Olstad is gone..... The team signed Rogers to take over the backup fullback role after Zach Olstad was waived/injured because of an ankle injury. He was injured Monday. 1

Worth a listen to get in the mind of one of the best minds on offfensive football . Highly suggest a listen. Find it in podcasts. Pardon My Take. 1
Kmart128 Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 Anytime a FB gets drafted he has to have some skill. Surprised Rams gave up on him so soon.
BuffaloHokie13 Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 Sam is an absolute fan favorite in Blacksburg. I'm thrilled for hiim to get an opportunity with us. 1

I can't block the sun, even with a sombrero. I drop keys even when they are in the ignition, and I don't "run" so much as I "lean forward". I like it if for no other reason than pure envy. 3
