Scouting Report:
The
Good: Big, powerful, smart
fullback that dominates opponents when he puts his mind to it.
Sees
the field, looks for someone to hit and
enjoys doing the dirty work. Quick
getting out in front of the ball carrier, puts his shoulders
down into opponents and displays both jolt and
strength at the point.
Opens big holes for his running backs.
Solid short yardage runner and
receiver out of the backfield.
The
Bad: Not quick or explosive and limited skills outside of tackle.
Had a rough off season in which he
reportedly lost his mother which he took very hard. Put on a lot of weight, then lost his
starting job.
The
Skinny: Must get back to
where he was at the
end of 2001; should he a terrific lead
fullback in the future.
