Dalton Nixon to football?

Why?

Why not. Has eligibility for 1 season. Try him at TE.

Yeah there’s no cons if he walks on

We have 9 TE on the roster for fall.

Yep. See if he can use his giant 6’7 frame as a jump ball guy

6'7" TE that plays physical on the court. Might translate to the field.

Jordan Cameron road to success: Basketball, College TE, NFL TE, Tiger's ex-wife

Tiger's ex-wife, so that's what all this Tiger King is about.

Guy only has one year. Don’t make him a DE IMO

puntersarepeople

4/2/20 7:19pm

Probably right. I think it would tougher to crack the TE rotation though.

He’d be a specialist for sure

Isn't understanding blocking schemes really important for a TE? If so, seems like it would be difficult to learn that

Read my post above, he’d be a pass catching specialist

puntersarepeople

4/2/20 7:41pm

Fair enough, but if that's all he is, I don't think he'll see the field. In 6 mo of training I don't see him jumping

First step quickness, make him a DE rush end specialist. WAAAY more need.

Dalton isn’t the athlete that Gates was . . .

4/2/20 8:08pm

Totally agree. I meant to say more about that. Gates was a much bigger body and moved so well for a bigger

I really wish Charles Abouo would have played football. He could have been WR,
