Don’t know anything about him, but Illinois was decent this year.
It’s not necessarily my ideal style of play, but if we’re going to use tight ends primarily as extra linemen instead of receiving threats anyway, maybe getting some guys like this makes more sense than trying to use theoretically capable receiving tight ends in that role. I doubt we signed him for his receiving skills.Only caught three passes for 20 yards? Strength is suppose to be blocking and has great size for a TE. Perhaps he can get stronger at UK and catch a few more passes?
NO. More like a sixth offensive lineman. He is a blocking TE, you do have to have those you know. Don't you ?So another bench warmer
He is a blocking beast at 6’6” 270lb. Bringing back the Big Blue Wall DaysHope he can block cause he won’t be catching
We have to be able to run the ball effectively because through 12 years, we are still allergic to the forward pass.He is a blocking beast at 6’6” 270lb. Bringing back the Big Blue Wall Days
A TE catching passes at UK? Ha...what drugs are you on man?Only caught three passes for 20 yards? Strength is suppose to be blocking and has great size for a TE. Perhaps he can get stronger at UK and catch a few more passes?
And Beleima is a run guySaw article earlier that said he got single digit snaps each game 2nd half of year at Illinois. Woohoo! Great addition!
