drivey, what are these guys afraid of?



Strange Gyro, perhaps a new trend? Harrison Jr ghosted the entire process. Fautanu should have gladly done it, but JC is a legit monster.

-85 inch wing
-35 1/8 in arms
-11 1/8 (!) hands

And the TAPE matches the measurables. Dudes a people mover in the run game (which Fashanu isn’t) and is just as impressive pass blocking, and can recover if initially beat.

Go to YouTube.com and type in “JC Latham vs” and tell me when I’m telling lies!

He’s got the potential to be the best T of the class for sure. I think many have Alabama OL fatigue and just write him off a bit. That and he’s at RT. We need a road grader just as much as we need better pass pro, if not more

That said, he can hold his own day 1 on the edge. Absolute worst case, he’s your starting G for years
