UpstateSwagger Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I find it interesting that the one-time UF standout's name hasn't been discussed on this board. IMO we have a good, traditional blocking, possession receiver TE prospect in Derek Fine. What we lack is a stretch the field athlete to line up and open the field. This kid was an absolute stud for the Gators two years ago. He is 6'4" 245lbs and is going to run a 4.5 40 at the combine. He is a freak of nature. If not for a knee injury right before the season, the kid would be a first-rounder, I'm convinced. Because of the injury, he could be there in the 3rd when we pick. This would allow us to go pass rusher/center rounds one and two, and then pick up a bit of a ceiling-less project in the third. As a fan of the SEC, I would absolutely love this scenario: 1: Brown DE/FSU 2: Caldwell C/Bama 3: Ingram TE/UF Watch for this kid to open eyes wide, once workout numbers begin to come out. Thoughts?

H2o Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 He's a good receiver and good in the open field, but what about as a blocker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalonian-at-Heart Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 He's a good receiver and good in the open field, but what about as a blocker? Who cares? We need a receiving threat at TE. We have 18 TE's that can block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Who cares? We need a receiving threat at TE. We have 18 TE's that can block. If he can't block signals by default that the play is a pass. Depends on down and distance but this could be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Who cares? We need a receiving threat at TE. We have 18 TE's that can block. as clever as that sounds, it's not practical... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson from Gamehendge Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Rsie O donnell is a freaf of nature. this is a big black dude with moderate speed. PASS. so instead, you want us to draft this Darius Bey dude? don't ya think we have enough underachieving wide receivers? i have heard he will be taken in the 1st...so i would say "PASS!" I WOULD LOVE THIS DRAFT! 1: Brown DE/FSU 2: Caldwell C/Bama 3: Ingram TE/UF ESPECIALLY the DE from Florida State. But, honestly...I would rather get by this season, and hold out hope we can get Jermaine Gresham next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
