I was watching this game from last year with the sole intent of checking out E. Wilford. I watched the game very sporadically. I unfortunately never seemed to catch the plays with him when I was watching. The ones I did see however he looked pretty good.
First of all he's a real big receiver as we know and I know we've all wanted one here for a long time now. I noticed how he is a great blocker down field. He made a great block down field that I saw, which enabled the guy with the ball to score the TD. He should really help in that department and with blocking on screens etc...and obviously with his height and strength, he should be able to be a real good red zone threat. He seemed to give a lot of effort when he played. When some receivers don't get the ball they don't give full effort in chasing the play down to make a block etc...
I was real happy when I heard we signed him. I think he was one of those quiet, under the radar type signings, but I have a hunch he's going to be a good player for us and turn out to be one of our better signings. At least for the short term to help with the gradual youth movement:up:
