He's big enough to play DT in a 3-4?

Any reason why he didn't succeed at LSU?
Prob one of the only 5 star signees that I wasn't super excited about

6'5 280,m yeah plenty big...I think you are thinking NT. I am talking about DT in a 3-4/3-3-5, so he usually plays on the edge (of the DL)

Not a clue about his pro stock. Woud be very happy for him if he has his name called though. It's so rare to see a transfer go out under Miles and see any success.

Hope he'll make it in the big league.

Yep. The one "attrition" player I can recall making the NFL without LSU is Akiem Hicks. Of course, Hicks was not a transfer, never played a down for LSU, and was not permitted to play for reasons other than talent.
Still, 3rd round pick, now starting for the Saints - man what could have been, huh?

I thought of one, but not a Miles player.

He's definitely 6'5 300 Glen Dorsey works out at La Boxing in the off season and Chris looks more like a physical specimen than him

Did you see him in a Marietta Walmart?

He also played REALLY high, and being tall himself, that's a huge no-no for a DT.
quote:So, Brick Haley couldn't teach him how to play lower? That's what good coaches do. They correct technique problems. Some athletes never adapt though and are basically "Uncoachable." CD couldn't make it on offense or defense so he most likely falls into that category.
Good point. I think that's a big reason why he was moved to offense.
