******* hate comparisons to former good players unless its a body of work after a college career.

Not the talent, just the body type. I think he has potential to grow out of the TE position like Winston did.

DaMareus Finnegan

6'7" WR 4.27 40

His dad is former Mets pitcher Sid Finch and his mom was an East German track athlete in the late 70's.

I'm sure If you go to ancestry.com, you'll find that this guy is a descendent of Goliath.

Under the radar. They LOVED him at the camp though.

LoL at the 40 time, anyone actually believe that? anyone know how to spell his 1st name? I couldn't find him on google.

I may be off on the spelling of the first name.

This cat will most def be playing OL. Dude is 6'6'' and not even outta HS yet, wait till he gets in a weight and nutrition program here hes only gonna get bigger

Based on that film alone, positives are guy has a great motor, does not stop blocking and get to the second level quite well. Would love to see a bit more of push back from his run blocking and keep his feet moving more and get lower but the guy is 6'6 and bend at the knee which is nice to see and doesn't lunge with his head. I thikn he isn't highly ranked because he is in a run offence and rarely passes but he can, shows athleticism. I really think he is a potential OL down the road and potentially a solid starter, which seems to work for a lot of universities not only ours. Good pick up, keeping it real in So Fla.

Was thinking the same thing. Another Eric Winston

We need TE's now, not down the road OL. I hope this means we arent out of the running with the TE from North Carolina.

 

[NorthFlaCane]

Why do we need TEs now. We've got 2 sophomores who are going to see a ton of playing time this year and a big TE recruit already on board.

His offer sheet should blow up now that he's no longer at that charter school. Expect big things from him in '13.

Word is he showed up Coley a couple of times. Kid has swag.

Cleveland's a Junior, but I still agree with the point.

We need to usher some promising TE prospects in, but we have other roster spots in worse shape.

Yes. We actually have 5 TEs already plus an elite prospect in Dobard. THat's 6 and all will return in 2013. We dont "need" any more in terms of depth. The only reason why we would "need" more is if the current TEs dont work out and we have to cut them loose (Dye, Perry, etc), which would open up slots for more TEs.
