[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 567233"] It's a copycat league. Everybody wants tall corners now. There are lot of teams who screen out guys who are 6'0", 190 lbs. on dimensions alone. There are a lot of teams who will look skeptically at a guy out of Catawba who's only tape is against small college players and NFL second and third stringers. There are a lot of teams who did not have him anywhere on their board and who's research might be sketchy. Thompson probably has gentlemen's agreements with some GMs that if you don't touch mine I won't touch yours, further narrowing the field. And I don't think we can say he's a "young good corner". We can say he's looked good and has that potential. It boils down to whether a team, without benefit of an interview, perhaps sketchy research and working in a tight signing window, open a spot on their 53 man roster for a small college player who had some good preseason tape against backups (or worse) while not caring if they p*ss of Thompson. Teams have a 24 hour window to make decisions on PS, with a smorgasbord of options before them...hundreds of names suddenly available, some predictable, some not, with a natural disposition toward signing their own cuts who they now know thoroughly. So the question is not whether Rolle has value in his potential; the question is whether some team will want him for their 53 man roster. [/QUOTE]
