Will Jah-Maine have a legitimate opportunity to show his value given that rookie mini-camp is just in shorts and t-shirts? His value lies in his ability to get to the second level and break away. I'm not sure how you show that.

I'm not sure how you show that. if he runs a legit 4.5 forty or less, he'll get a serious look. he can explain why he had an uncharacteristic season last year due to injury and his jr. year highlights should be enuf to get a foot in the door. so i believe if he proves that he's 100% healthy and runs a 4.5 forty or less in front of the coaches,i honestly believe he'll get a legitimate shot to come back for camp and make somebody's team... |

I wish him the best, but it will be tough. Hopefully his training has gotten him there. Ron Hunt was the fastest player on our team and he ran a 4.56 at Pro Day.

Runningback is tricky, you have to be able to do more than just tote the mail. You have to be good at blitz pickup and pass catching out of the backfield.

Yep. I'm not even sure you have "tote the mail" at all anymore in today's NFL.

i think his biggest weaknesses are no experience playing "special teams" and not an elaborate track record of "pass catching". but make no mistake about, there is still a place in the nfl for a "rock toting" rb, especially one who can take it to the house for big gains...
