[QUOTE="SoonerPack, post: 609307, member: 9838"] I think he is more athletic than many on this board are giving him credit for. The post(s) about his injury and how none of us know if he was truly 100% last year both mentally and physically are spot on to me. When you combine that with the fact the young man only played a true ILB for one season I am surprised that more people aren't excited to see what he can do opposed to labeling him a 2 down guy and nothing more. The fact is he is going to get better at the position now that he will receive top level training and his 4.65 FYD tells me is isn't some lumbering sloth. The kid is pretty good and I like to look at the entire picture and when I do I like what I see. Ryan has above average athletic ability, a great motor, passion for the game and he uses angles to his advantage to compensate for the lack of top notch athleticism. To me, that sounds like a kid that will be able to make some plays for us. How many times have you seen or read about a guy that is a combine freak or a workout warrior but when he pads up you are thinking to yourself, "who the hell is this bum?" I want a guy that can play the game and that's what I expect from Jake. I am not saying he is going to make the PB the next 10 years but I do think he is going to end up being a really nice player contributing to a couple championship runs. Call me a homer or whatever but I am just stating how I honestly feel about him. G P G! [/QUOTE]
