Who the Hell is John Nalbone

That has to be a typo.....I thought Mothman was a movie???
 
"He's been compared to an Anthony Fasano-type player. I hear the Dolphins have some interest in him. Bill Parcells loves those Jersey guys, and John is a true Jersey guy. He's got that personality and swagger. He's a very confident kid who believes in his ability."

Sounds like our FO was big on this guy...
 
Trust is Bill and co. How easy we foget we were 1-15 and they changed our team around with thier type of players and we saw are 11-5 turn around happen. Have some faith people.
 
I lol at people who are mad about this pick. I knew it was coming for months (getting a TE). Parcells likes complete Tight Ends and now we have 2. I can not wait to see Fasano and Nalobne on the field together killing people. Have some faith..we have 2 more picks coming right up!!
 
I like Nalbone, but I think he would have been there at our second fifth. The only one's I dislike are the WRs.
 
OMG, Duke Robinson goes right after, I am really questioning ireland's thinking at this point..
 
according to the article he ran a sub 4.6 forty and is 255. It also mentioned how Parcells was interested in him. And this was an old article so Bill must have been planning this for a while
 
Coming out of Lawrence High School, John Nalbone had hopes of playing for a major college football program, particularly nearby Rutgers, but never received a scholarship offer. Instead, he landed at Monmouth. During his second year on campus, though, he realized the Football Championship Subdivision isn't so far from the NFL, thanks to teammate Miles Austin, now a receiver with the Dallas Cowboys. "Here I am, I became friends with this kid, and he had scouts coming for him," Nalbone recalled this week after a workout at the TEST Sports Club in Martinsville, where he has trained for the past four months. "I saw it and said, 'Hey, if you're good enough, you work hard enough, they're going to come find you." Sure enough, three years later NFL scouts also uncovered Nalbone, a well-built 6-4, 255-pound All-American who holds all of Monmouth's tight end records after starting for four seasons. He impressed in his Pro Day workouts, with a 40 time in the 4.6 range, and has the talent to be the second diamond in West Long Branch. Over the past few weeks, he's taken visits to the Jets and Jaguars and has also worked out for the Eagles, Patriots and Dolphins. He is a potential late-round pick during this weekend's NFL Draft but is also prepared to sign as an undrafted free agent, as Austin did. - Jenny Vrentas, The Star-Ledger
