GRADES for udfa - jets : A ~ ~ ~

UDFA Grades - AFC
by Sigmund Bloom on 05/01/09

~ ~ New York Jets

DT Ty Steinkuhler, Nebraska
SS Keith Fitzhugh, Mississippi State
OC Michael Parenton, Tulane
WR Britt Davis, Northern Illinois
SS Emanuel Cook, South Carolina
FB Brannan Southerland, Georgia
OL Ryan McKee Southern Mississippi
OT Kyle Link, McNeese State
QB Chris Pizzotti, Harvard
OT Tavita Thompson, Oregon State
TE J’Nathan Bullock, Cleveland State
TE Andrew Davie, Arkansas
DL Matt Kroul, Iowa
P T.J. Conley, Idaho
TE Robert Myers, Utah State
DE Zach Potter, Nebraska
DE Jamaal Westerman, Rutgers

What a group - Steinkuhler, Fitzhugh, Cook, Southerland, Davie, and Potter were all draftable guys on my board, and I fully expect Potter to make the team as a 3-4 DE. Westerman is also an interesting guy because he would have been rated much higher if he hadn’t tore his bicep. Terrific job offsetting the pain of only having three picks because of two trade up deals.

Grade: A

Yeah, get back to me when Pizzotti puts up Tom Brady numbers. Not to mention the 3 SB rings.

Emanual Cook is on Deion Sanders reality show ''Prime U'', he looked like a beast, until he got injured. He's a workout warrior.

You do realize that if you have a bunch of UDFA's making the final roster, it pretty much means your team sucks. :yes:

If your point is that the Pats* suck bcause Wes Welcher was an UDFA, I'm not going to argue with you. :eek:

Prediction: Of all these names, Southerland makes the team. He's the 2nd or 3rd best FB in the draft. He'll be a monster on special teams and learn from Richardson this year before he solidifies into a fossil and then takes over full time next year.

Height: 6-0 | Weight: 242 | 40-Time: 4.68
Brannan Southerland | Georgia Bulldogs
Official Bio

Strengths:
Decent speed and athleticism...Extremely tough...Very strong and powerful...Terrific short-yardage / goaline runner...A great blocker who can really get out and fit on the second level...Solid hands...Good awareness...Team leader...Fantastic work ethic...Great special teamer.

Weaknesses:
Health and durability are concerns...Wasn't overly productive...Not really a dominating lead blocker...Does not look very comfortable as a receiver...Does everything well but nothing amazing...Limited upside.

Notes:
Essentially a four-year starter in the SEC...Was named a captain for the Bulldogs...Earned the team’s David Jacobs Award as a player who by example portrayed courage, spirit, character and determination as well as the Leon Farmer Award for dedication to the strength and conditioning program...Missed spring drills in 2006 due to shoulder surgery...Fractured the navicular bone in his left foot late in the 2007 season and the resulting surgeries and rehab basically wiped out his senior year...Versatile fullback who can be a threat as a runner, receiver and blocker...Definitely has the talent to play in the NFL and perhaps even start in the right situation as long as he can stay healthy.
