Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2446926, member: 1899"] He's a diamond in the rough but gee there is a lot of rough there. It's been that way since the 20s, this isn't some kid who dominated down there and has been exposed, he's always played like this. One moment he can do something amazing then you won't see him again and when you do it's him making a dumb mistake. He's been that way since I watched his NYC debut against the Cowboys in R1 '09. I don't think he's all there as a playmaker, I don't think he knows how to adjust to a situation and what's the right play. Watching him, I feel like Hook has basically told him to stick to the left hand side, get the ball and unless you're a 100% confident the pass or kick is on all you're going to do is run and kick to the corners. That's why we're seeing the improvement in this aspect of his game at fullback, because he has more freedom, he can interject himself either side of the field & doesn't have the same amount of pressure on the last tackle plays, the play would be decided by the other halves. It remains to be seen whether he'll be our long-term five eigth. Based on this season it's a flat no & I think both halves should well and truly be under the microscope. [/QUOTE]
