Josh has a motor. They had to use a double team to slow him down. I must admit I thought he was definitely going to play center. But I can see him making an impact Glenn Dorsey style on that D Line. The tradition continue. D line University.

Downs looked good. Better than Campbell in my opinion.

Yeah but Campbell is a monster in size and speed. Like Marvin Austin a few years ago. Downs will out work WC. I like the smaller DT that are quick and agile. I think our defense lacked that speed this year. We has strentgh and size but we didnt have that motor and drive to the ball except Alem.

that is a stretch... mcd has all the tools but i will say JD is hard to block one on one. lets see what happens when he gets to lsu

I hear what you're saying about Campbell, but look at 5-star Al Woods as an example of how different kids develop in college...

Youre 100% correct. There is no science to recruiting. I dont like the competition level in MIpersonally. Ohio, LA, Cali, Fla, Tex, Okie , NY/NJ all play some of the best High school football. BUt he was all over the foeld yesterday and clearly showed great movement and agility. I never saw woods in High School so I cant compare but from I have seen. Woods is like a Run stopper. which is horrible against the spread. ask T Cody..

I just finished the game, and Josh Downs really impressed me. Quick off the ball, good leverage, good with his hands, and quick.

Josh was very impressive. I never understood why the recruiting services spent the better part of a year trying to push Josh Downs as playing Center or OG.

Josh Downs dominated the line last night.For a 267 pounder he looked explosive.

What no talent evaluator can ever measure is your inner self. JD reminds me of a little Race horse named Seabiscuit. It's not your physical size that matters, its the size of your heart.
