Hey man, was'nt sure if you had a chance to island hop and paddle that carved out tree canoe to check out any Warrior games this year??

Caveman gave praise to a couple Warriors, one was Leonard Peters -S

Any insight on the cat?

As far as my alum USF... Not to much to get the blood flowing to the penis other than Stephen Nicholas the OLB. Pretty solid guy, but as a season ticket holder of my beloved Bulls, I dont see him panning out in the NFL

So drop the skinny on Peters if ya got it
 
Peters is a bubble guy at best that if he makes it, it will be as a special teams guy ala Crazy Johnson... He really throws his body around but the knee injuries have taken away the speed he had coming out of high school.... I know he lost two years to injuries and is older than probably any prospect that didn't lose time to Mormon missions...





I think this is the article you are referring to, I saw it in my morning paper...

I'll see one of the UH defensives coaches on either Wed or Thursday, so hopefully he'll give me some Ryan insight... FWIW, alot of teams are looking at Alama-Francis as a potential DT from what I understand, though the Ravens were looking at him as a stand up end ala Adalius...
 
Well so uch for that, I'll take your word on it as I have only seen 1 Warrior game

Thanks for the reply

Give me the low down on Alama-Francis...

His size-speed-measurables are very intriguing, and he had a heck of an all-star game, but I see him everywhere from early second round to mid fifth round in mocks...

He's one of my sleeper favorites, btw. He's barely played football, yet is a natural 6-5 270 with good athleticism to play a base end.

Hard worker, yes sir, no sir type kid who the coaches love and still has a walk-on frame of mind... Lives in the weightroom from what I understand...


I've seen him in the weightroom and he still looks like he hasn't maxed out his physique... I know he's 270 lbs or whatever, but he only 'looks' to be in the 245-250 range... No bloat or belly at all to the guy... I personally thing he should stay in the 265-275 pound range and be developed as an Osi Umiyuera-esque rush end, but from what I heard, alot of teams are looking at using him inside as a young Trevor Pryce type DT...

I'd be wary about wanting to put more weight on the guy... To go from 190 pounds to 290 in a five year time frame?... I mean he put on the weight the correct way under a really good strength and conditioning coach, but I'd still worry about the stress on the joints and ligaments... I really thought the guy made a mistake out of high school by persuing basketball over volleyball because many felt he was an elite V-ball player, I mean the guy had some wicked hops and was left handed to boot, but it seems to have worked out... IMO, he's probably a late 2nd-early third round prospect though his versatility may push him higher...
