I don't think most thought the NFL was really an option unless the goal was simply to get drafted. FB is kind of obsolete...that said, he can definitely find a niche role and be a key H-Back type piece and coming back is only going to allow him to improve as a blocker.

NFL doesn't look as kindly on fullbacks as they did 15-20 years ago. Just not a highly valued position anymore.

Even if you're an All American Fullback, most teams probably wouldn't take higher than a Day 3 pick on you. Maybe a few teams out there that would consider it, like the Ravens. But otherwise, your only hope is impressing someone at a FA camp.

He won't be a high draft pick no matter where or when he goes. But I believe the young man will be in the league for a long time and make a lot of money, we haven't seen all his skill sets come together. Quick for a big man, good hands and a trusted agent on short down situations

He was on Shane Morris's 7 on 7 team. Who would have thought that he would now be a key in our goal line offense next season. Go Blue Panda !
