I'm still rooting for this guy to make the team! 270#'s and only 9% body fat? he's going to be solid this year!

As long as that little fight doesn't come back to haunt him, he should be on the team. Before that incident, Parcells and Co. really gushed over him.

I'm really skeptical he gets cut at this point. If they have not done it by now, I doubt they do it.
He's just got too much upside, and can do things your average fullback 30 pounds lighter cannot. He was raw last year, but there were times where he showed flashes of what he can do. There are instances where he was taking defensive linemen out of plays. Not 250 pound DEs, either, but Crunchtime's .GIF gallery(Club Level access) has got some plays I can point out where seals the edge and knocks Mario Williams off the line, and catches Vince Wilfork with a cut block and puts him on the ground.
You've got to remember, this is a guy who essentially learned to play fullback last year, there's a learning curve. He wasnt a lead blocker in college, he was essentially a halfback, whose job essentially consisted of standing next to Colt Brennan in shotgun formations and picking up blitzers.k-bayfinfan, Bpk, alen1 and 1 other person like this. -

I want to like this kid, but I want to know why he punched out that guy, if he had good reason I can live with it. Hope he turns into a mauler on the field for us though.
