In my humble
opinion
Randall Cunningham Jerseys Stitched , that’s the case with Utah State running back Darwin Thompson.I had an interesting experience with Thompson while
doing film work for another prospect. During my initial evaluation of Utah State
tight end Dax Raymond this 5’8”, 200-pound (school listing) running back kept
scoring. I’m not talking about vulture scores either, we’re talking big play
after big play. In all, he totaled 255 yards from scrimmage and 3 total
touchdowns against San Jose State.I looked him up and found out who he was.
Within minutes I also discovered he was not invited to the NFL Combine. A likely
cause of that is his single year of FBS production, which totaled 1,395 yards
and 16 touchdowns. He was a JUCO transfer and lit up the box score when he got
the chance in 2018.What makes his Combine snub disappointing is that there’s
serious buzz about the numbers he can put up. I’ve seen reports that he’s hit
40-inches in the vertical jump, which points to his short area explosiveness. He
works hard in the weight room too and made it onto Bruce Feldman’s “Freak List”.
His exclusion is a bummer because I want to see if his athleticism, in terms of
burst and long speed, against lower level competition was just a mirage.Before
you see his size (which needs to be confirmed) and throw out some
names
http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-corey-clement-jersey , let me stop you. He’s not Darren Sproles. He’s not Tarik Cohen. I don’t think
he’s Donnel Pumphrey either. He might be more like Tyler Ervin, a fourth round
selection who stuck around as a returner for the Houston Texans for a few years.
Maybe he’s not any of them. Maybe he’s just Darwin Thompson. What that means is
still to be determined, but I’m interested in finding out.I have a fifth round
grade on Thompson after going through his film. I believe that film grade
matches the area in which he’ll be selected in the NFL Draft. There are concerns
but there’s a lot to like about his game. His small frame is built to make life
difficult for tacklers and he breaks a plethora of tackles. He’s also a threat
in the receiving game, where he’s a threat to take screens to the house. The
Philadelphia Eagles would be wise to do their due diligence on him. And, he had
a really cool internship opportunity in college."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Eagles

friends in the Eagles locker roomThe Eagles made a surprise pick at No. 57,
snagging the 6-foot-2, 225 receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside out of Stanford.He
couldn’t help but break down in tears when he got the call from
Philadelphia
Womens DeSean Jackson Jersey , saying it hit him all at once, “Man, I’m going to be an Eagle.” Arcega-Whiteside said that he was so excited about
joining an organization that does it right, and knows how to win games.Here’s
what the newest Eagle wide receiver had to say in his first meeting with the
media:On his familiarity with the EaglesJ.J. talked a lot about he’s very
familiar with Carson Wentz and his game, both at the college and NFL levels.
NDSU prospect Easton Stick is at the same agency as Arcega-Whiteside and they
would often study Wentz’s tape because he’s a great example of doing things
right. Plus, the Eagles quarterback has been “tearing it up” in the NFL too.The
wide receiver also has a good relationship with Zach Ertz, with both hailing
from Stanford. J.J. said that they linked up about a month ago, and Ertz is
someone he’s seen every offseason the past few years at the facility.Ertz isn’t
in Philly at the moment, but wants to get together and catch up as soon as he’s
back. And
Cameron Johnston Jersey , J.J. said he’ll probably reach out by phone in the next day or two to catch up and get some advice about making the transition
to Philly.Arcega-Whiteside is coming in to a very comfortable situation and will
have a lot of friends the first day in the locker room. Regarding his
connections to the wide receiver room, he has the same agent as Mack Hollins and
have hung out a bunch, and he and Nelson Agholor have the same trainer and
worked out together before, as well.He’s excited about having that comfort level
with all the familiar faces when he joins the team this offseason.J.J. was a
team captain at Stanford but he acknowledged that it took time for him to
establish that respect among his teammates and knows that he’s coming in as the
new guy in Philadelphia. He hasn’t played a down of NFL football yet, and is
excited about the leaders and captains for the Eagles that he has to learn from
and look up to.On choosing football over basketballBoth of his parents were
professional basketball players, but they told him they didn’t care what he did
in life as long as it was something he loved, so he didn’t feel any pressure to
follow in their footsteps.He decided on football over basketball during his
sophomore/junior year of high school when he started getting college offers. He
said there was no better feeling than scoring touchdowns, and he knew that
basketball wouldn’t give him that same kind of happiness.J.J. said that he chose
Stanford over other colleges because it was the best combination of sports and
academics, and even met Condoleezza Rice during his visit and even ended up
interning for her last year. He even got to meet some ambassadors and other
important people
http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-paul-worrilow-jersey , so the contacts were incredible.He was asked a lot about Rice and the type of
work he did for her, and her interests in sports. J.J. said that he has no doubt
whatever Rice wants to do, whether it’s coach football, be the MLB commissioner,
or stay in politics, she’ll be successful and impressive.
