Viking Coach: re Tiny

[Volador]

No contract yet, so they are being patient.

Don't y'all think it would be cheaper to pay Tiny vs feed him??

Someone mentioned an injury that scared the NFL scouts away.

Yep

Well, he went from being a first or second round pick in the preseason to an undrafted free agent so you do the math. I wasn't one of the guys calling him our worst OL last year but he surely didn't play near expectations. Could've been because he was playing at 65% as he said. Hope the kid has a long and prosperous NFL career.

A troubled knee at the time is all it takes to explain it, so science first, then math. We all wish him well.

I thought that was James that man handled JC.:unsure:

No, it was Tiny. The one play may have decided aided the game, but shutting Clowney down kept us in the game.

Any hint of a knee injury hurts an o-lineman's stock. So much of line play is about balance and your lower body. I always remember Michael Munoz when I think about OL and bad knees.

He has got to work on the false starts, he got way to many last year, I remember a lot of 3rd and 2 turned into 3rd and 7, he hurt us a lot last year, I know he had bad knees, but he is not in the same league as James. I hope he gets healthy and works on his game and become a 8 time all pro, I wish him the best of luck like every Vol.

Actually, I think he and James are in the same league... unless the NFL has wised up over the past couple of days and relegated the Vikings down to the CFL.

Saw an article on All for Tennessee that said Zach Fulton was getting first team reps with the Chiefs as well.
