JoeF Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Derek Fine is #85--receiver is Aqib Talib (who played O for KU at times). Fine had one of the top 3 20 and shuttle times of any TE's at the combine. Shows some good speed here--and man what a block 55 yards downfield.... Had not seen this posted..sorry if I missed it..
BBfan4lifeJH81 Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Nice block. Hopefully we will see a lot of that this year
Bleed Bills Blue Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 A thing of beauty. It's not only his speed which is impressive here, it's the way he changes direction while covering a lot of ground to take the perfect angle to make the block. That's pretty good instincts to go along with the ability to lower the boom...HA! A lot of folks here are pretty high on this guy, I hope he has a long and successful career. It'd be cool if he was the TE we've been waiting so long for!
ax4782 Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 From what he showed there and from what I've seen from him during the snippets of OTA that are available on the Bills' website, he looks like he could be pretty darn good. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
marauderswr80 Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 laid it on the line for his teammate to score.......Nice......however Robert Royal does the same thing!

It'd be cool if he was the TE we've been waiting so long for! Yeah except it was a block for a fellow GayHawk
scribo Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Yes, Fine shows some good wheels in that clip, but that also shows Fine has a good handle on the angles of football, which can make a really significant difference at this level.
Mark Vader Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Yeah except it was a block for a fellow GayHawk Come on Stl Bills, when college players become Bills, we've got to cheer from them no matter where they came from. Believe me, I'm a Michigan fan, but I'm thrilled that Donte Whitner is a Bill.
Pete Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Great play all around. That is a heckuva leap by Talib and Fine blew that guy up!

Tcali Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Nope. yeppp..i said it louder so im right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beerball Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Here's another video of Mangino's weekly show. Nice reception by Fine about 2 mins. in, and a decent block on a TD run about 2:30 in where he allowed the back to turn the corner. Another nice reception in the middle at 9:35.
buffaloboyinATL Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Damn, Jordy Nelson looked good in a few of the other clips out there. I think he's gonna be a hell of a player. Nice block by Fine btw.
