Fins sign a WR/DB

I didn't know we signed him, but I have most definetly heard of him. Just the same as i've heard about Chris Jackson. If you'll remember we signed him last year and nothing came of it. I thought Jackson was amazing and was extremely surprised when he didn't cut it. :dunno:. Maybe Sippio will go the "Gadsden" route :lol:
 
how will we use him? He was a DB in college but seemed to step up as a WR in the AFL. Apperantly he is a good athlete but has lacked a position.
 
I don't know much about him I do know those are pretty good offensive numbers even though the field is shorter.
 
He played QB in high school. And while playing for Greensboro in 2003 he had 57 rec. for 1,009 yds. and 27 touchdowns. Defensively he had 66 tackles and 5 interceptions and won the ironman award. I don't know those are not bad stats at all.
 
Maybe they are still looking for that third receiver. From what I've been reading know one has been all that impressive.

No record of him being a returner at any level. With that size and speed he sounds like a safety or slot corner if he doesn't go offense. Still he is a long shot at best, but if he shows something he could make NFLE next season or perhaps even the expanded PS this year.
 
if hes 6 2 or taller.. he seems like he can be an OG type guy.. remember OG was slow as hell but he could catch anything and get open.. and could jump.. and could push off .. he wasnt weak.. remember when they brought in thompson they foudn out that he isnt as aggresive as OG was therefore he couldnt play like OG could i think thats why we were all so disapointed when thompson let us down..
og was definetly one of my favorites to watch when he would catch passes in the corner of the endzone with like 3 fingers.. bc his damn hands are 2 feet by 1 foot.. lolll
