[QUOTE="InsideLB, post: 154936, member: 857"] For good measure I watched MLD's senior highlights yesterday (and his junior highlights as well for that matter). It was fun rewatching them and realizing at least one of these guys is going to have to log major minutes at A Back. Of course ultimately and perhaps ideally MLD and/or Marshall end up at BB. The case for MLD at A Back as I saw it from film: --College ready body and good size...might be able to upright block more as Ant Allen sometimes did as an A back --Lot's of receiving highlights in which MLD looked very natural. They even lined him up in the slot sometimes. Cool to see he appears to be a good receiver. --Versatility: He lined up in a lot of different positions on offense and defense generated highlight plays from most of them. --Looks quick enough and fast enough to me to help us at AB for awhile. So my guess of which tr-fr will play to help us at AB in order is (1) Marshall, (2) MLD, (3) Cottrell, (4) Jarrett. All good looking players. For the hey of it I also rewatched Brad Stewart's junior and senior film. Two things stood out. First had he a bazillion jump ball catches where he high pointed the footbal using his 38" vertical. That appeared to be the main way his HS used him....drop back and throw it to him whether he's covered or not. Second, his highlights showed him hustle to get blocks way downfield for teammates. Last year saw us keep a lot of drives alive with Smelter and Waller winning jump balls. I see why Johnson offered this kid. If he fills out in year or two and gives max effort blocking I can see his ball-control receiving skills keeping drives alive. Also I think he'll be able to trick CB's on play action and get behind them even. [/QUOTE]
