In-A-Gadda-Levitre Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Anthony Bialy is usually full of drivel, but his article on Trevor Scott is interesting. A more egocentric young man may have thrown a tantrum if requested to start over at an entirely new spot, but he took on the conversion and did what coaches thought was necessary to benefit the team. It was a selfless move that worked out well for him, anyway: He totaled an impressive 19 sacks over the two seasons he spent as a defender, enough to get him noticed as a borderline draft candidate. and At 6-foot-5 and 258 pounds, he’d need to add mass to get to and much less stay in the NFL as a defensive end, although Scott happens to possess decent size for a tight end were he to be switched back. Hmmm, would a team that needs all the help at that spot obtain take a flier on him? Regardless of where teams see him aligning, one thing in Scott's favor are reports that he ran a 40-yard dash in 4.54 seconds at the Bulls’ pro day, decent speed that would theoretically render it difficult for pass blockers to hold him back or pass defenders to stick with him. DE? maybe. Revert back to TE, sure. Character, speed, pass rusher, big receiver... what's not to like? Another Jason Peters maybe. Any thoughts?
deep2evans Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 As UB student, I watched him a number of times. Solid player. Who knew he could run a friggin 4.54 though? That's pretty amazing...no reason Buffalo shouldn't snatch him up as a URFA.
CJPearl2 Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Pick him up. Cuz nothing wins championships like attitude!
lets_go_bills Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Deep sleeper. Sounds like a good talent; size, speed, flexibility, and character. Some team will sign him as a undrafted FA.
PromoTheRobot Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Trevor Scott would make a terrific addition as a UDFA, or as the "Mr. Irrelevant" pick. He would be a project but you have to love someone with his speed, flexibility, and attitude. FYI, despite what some moron commented after that article, UB finished 1st in the MAC East last year, and there are other UB players in the NFL. Most recently Ramon Guzman, a LB on the Colts. PTR
