Div III but obviously he was head and shoulders above the competition, with those numbers... Reminds me of a certain sac state alum who rushed for 409 yards in one game and had a nice lil career here... (more then fred reid any way lol) Normally when you see a stat line like his (especially in sub d1 competition) you think its horrible gap assignment issues and running through wide open holes (like the fred reid game up here) but he seemed to run through arm tackles or better contact on all most all those plays. Reminds me a bit of cam marshall. Short stocky rb, good speed, good strength, runs north south a lot. Likes the contact doesnt shy away at all. Lots of run plays out of the gun which should translate well, and had a couple catches which is allways good too. Should be fun to watch him in camp.

Tracker Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 Roberson looks like one of the best off-season signings. Looks perfect for the CFL. I hope he has his head screwed on properly. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he has his head screwed on properly. http://www.goetbutigers.com/athletics/directory/2922/kendall-roberson/ not a lot there but sounds like a good student athlete and like some one who loves football, and had deep roots with his program. pro day numbers of 4.48 40, 34.5 vert, 18 reps 225, 3 cone of 7.00, 4.16 shuttle, 9'9" broad jump. and measured 5'8. Certainly one of the more interesting rookie imps to watch for camp. http://www.nfldraftblitz.com/470-2/ http://herosports.com/collegefootball/east-texas-baptist-running-back-kendall-roberson-desire-greatness “I heard a running back say there’s a hammer and a nail in every football play,” explained Roberson, “you get to decide what you want to be. In a muddy game, in the rain, someone’s gotta be the hammer.” Roberson provides easy banter, doesn’t talk about himself or his attributes, instead focusing on his teammates and his faith. He truly feels blessed for his abilities and the opportunity presented to him at ETBU. Ya sounds like hes got a real good head on his shoulders and that hard nose hard work ethic that mos loves. Tbh, if he is gonna have any chance of making the active roster he is gonna need to be versatile and play teams. He does look like a serious threat to be the no2 back, the imp DI / pr incase harris gets hurt. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 I think Roberson is going to be great competition for Flanders. I like the look of George Stone too, but I suppose we don't really have a need unless they plan to put him in the middle. He strikes me as a guy who could be like a Tony Burnett, though. wbbfan and Atomic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
