Mike Posted January 21, 2015 Author Report Posted January 21, 2015 Rodney Lamar, LB, Northern Michigan Transfer from Florida Atlantic. 6'1", 230 ... has played OLB and DE in college. Here's a highlight video filmed on a potato https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xH9X2SM7Mds

Here's a highlight video filmed on a potato https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xH9X2SM7Mds I'm assuming these new players you are posting here are already signed pending announcement, correct?
Mike Posted January 21, 2015 Author Report Posted January 21, 2015 Rodney Lamar, LB, Northern Michigan Transfer from Florida Atlantic. 6'1", 230 ... has played OLB and DE in college. Here's a highlight video filmed on a potato https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xH9X2SM7Mds I'm assuming these new players you are posting here are already signed pending announcement, correct? They're players who have been offered some kind of deal with the club. A few of them may run into a situation similar to what happened to a player at our camp that I talked about last year. He was signed, went to mini camp and released after mini camp - all before they ever bothered to announce the signing
Tracker Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 Making judgements on the basis of grainy film highlights is always tricky but he looks damned quick for a 240 lb man, he doesn't seem to get caught up in the wash too much and doesn't showboat after a tackle. A 240 lb outside linebacker is appealing, though and if he can play the position in the CFL with authority, he basically cuts the field for runners in half.
bearpants Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 His highlight video lists him at 6'2 240.... at that size he seems more apt for MLB... but if he has the speed to play WIL... I wouldn't have a problem with that...
mbrg Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 Making judgements on the basis of grainy film highlights is always tricky Dwayne Slay doesn't think so.
SPuDS Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 Wil or mack prospect.. Either one works as we (should) have vacancies at both spots..
Mike Posted January 27, 2015 Author Report Posted January 27, 2015 Former USC safety Demetrius Wright ... really like the look of this guy as a potential SAM
gbill2004 Posted January 27, 2015 Report Posted January 27, 2015 Former USC safety Demetrius Wright ... really like the look of this guy as a potential SAM Reading up on him he's quite versatile. Has played safety, linebacker and running back. His 40 time was clocked at 4.49. Was considered a rising star a couple years ago. Definitely like this signing.
James Posted January 27, 2015 Report Posted January 27, 2015 I agree with Mike, seems like great competition for SAM. Wonder what happens with Unamba though if we get Sears Back.
rebusrankin Posted January 27, 2015 Report Posted January 27, 2015 Excited about Wright. Potential SAM? Replacement for Sears?

bearpants Posted January 27, 2015 Report Posted January 27, 2015 I agree with Mike, seems like great competition for SAM. Wonder what happens with Unamba though if we get Sears Back. He fights to keep his position... nothing wrong with a little competition... being a ST ace also works in Unamba's favour

He fights to keep his position... nothing wrong with a little competition... being a ST ace also works in Unamba's favour And he played WIL last year, so maybe he can play both sides. Great use of a DI if he can back up both positions and be a monster on special teams. M.O.A.B. 1
gbill2004 Posted January 27, 2015 Report Posted January 27, 2015 Dunn still hasn't re-signed. I wonder if he will be asked to come back.
Mr Dee Posted January 27, 2015 Report Posted January 27, 2015 I agree with Mike, seems like great competition for SAM. Wonder what happens with Unamba though if we get Sears Back. He fights to keep his position... nothing wrong with a little competition... being a ST ace also works in Unamba's favour And he played WIL last year, so maybe he can play both sides. Great use of a DI if he can back up both positions and be a monster on special teams. Maybe he's even been asked to put on a few pounds to patrol the middle and solve two problems at once. Unumba - the new #1. Chant... Unumba 1 Unamba 1.
Stickem Posted January 27, 2015 Report Posted January 27, 2015 Wright looks like he'll be one to watch come tc. Solid hitter and looks to have a great motor. Looking forward to getting a first hand look at him.
