rebusrankin Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 1. If Charles Roberts had possessed the work ethic of Milt, he'd have set every rushing record and been the GOAT. 2. Guy was still an all time great and its amazing what he did given his lack of working out etc. blue_gold_84, the watcher and Tracker 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted February 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 and he's still an odd duck. Ed and Darren did a "Handled Internally" podcast with him, and it was......awkward......in a lotta spots. Dude is still just kinda weird...

Good power rush and spin move, good lateral pursuit and doesn't let up until the QB is horizontal or the ball carrier is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good power rush and spin move, good lateral pursuit and doesn't let up until the QB is horizontal or the ball carrier is. Hes exactly what our scout team turns up year in and year out. A guy whose biggest weakness is he doesnt fit in the nfl or didnt get a real shot to play. Athletic, high motor, good technical skills. Hes a 4i tweener in the nfl but here he fits perfectly with what we do at DT. Hes got the versatility and pass rush skill to excel in several roles, stunts/twists etc. Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy looks like the exactly what we look for in OL on the DL side. Nice pedigree, 30 starts (51 games) for VT with 30.5 TFL 113 tackles (53 solo), 8 sacks, and 6 swats thats pretty good. Getting a TFL per start and more solo tackles then games played from the inside is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted February 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 I'm only part way through the CJOB Bombers Mid Winter Special, but one note is that Justin Medlock has started a new job that he really likes, apparently. Osh wouldn't say much other than to say that they've talked, and they're going to work with whatever he decides. They seem very comfortable with moving along to Legghio.

As they should be Liegghio is a blue chip K prospect. Would be nice to have Medlock back but the Bombers prepared well for him to ride off into the sunset.

Stickem Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 I wish someone could come up with a clip on Leggs, that shows him pounding field goals through from 50 yds. with no problem...This kid is real good and if we're going with him I hope he can transition to the CFL game easily....The TiCats are still fuming over the fact we grabbed him in the draft.....tough for them....that's the way the old ball rolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebusrankin Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 Hopefully Young Legs steps up and we don't miss a beat. It does give us another DI which is interesting. wbbfan, Stickem, M.O.A.B. and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good point...and during Osh's segment of the CJOB show, he talked about how they are really high on all these returner guys they've got, and that they would like to be able to work the roster to get them in on offense. So having the extra DI spot would go a long way to getting more of those guys on the game day roster... JCon, wbbfan and rebusrankin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
