My son goes to ECU, so I get to see this kid play a little bit. All I can say is that he’s pretty small but he’s a gamer. Kid goes all out, and was a huge part of ECU’s offense. Considering that ECU’s QB’s are all pretty bad, I’d give the kid props. I don’t think he will stick with the Steelers or any NFL team, but for me, it’s fun to see him even get signed. Hope it works out for him.

No stone left unturned. If there's a smurf to be had , Tomlin will find and sign em.

Is there a website that lists the height of players? Tomlin would love a copy of the last page of that.

In high school, there was a midget offensive lineman on our team. I'm not kidding. He was as thick as any stud man, just about 3.5' tall. Maybe Tomlin wants him.

Smurfs unite!!

Maybe someone needs to TELEGRAM Coach Tomlin that it's illegal to midget toss in the NFL.!!!

His success in college is very doubtful to translate to NFL. Small fries in a big world appetite.



Salute the nation

Probably highly effective. Everyone gets blocked in the nutz.

Tomlin will find the next Sproles or die trying lol

Camp tryouts aren’t the worse thing … but as you get smaller players in your sight their speed and quickness need to be astronomical… too often our targets are average in those areas

Driiiiiiiiii !!!!!!

The Archer template at work.

Ah- the best receiver from Ompa Loompa University

 

[BLITZ]

the worst part is going to be watching this kid going down the middle of the field and getting blown up

Obviously never want anybody hurt but I hope they don't hold back in training camp because of his size. I would want him to get a taste of real life NFL football instead of some build up coach speak. He can then make his own assessment as play or not.

they needed someone on the roster to make Austin feel tall

Assuming he wasn't the center?

Guard

 

[bermudasteel]

Why???

 

[madinsomniac]

Why???

If you are asking about the midget guard, im guessingeither he was a master at leverage or he was easy to trip over….

If you are asking why about signing yet another munchkin receiver, im guessing tiny wrs are like pokimon to Tomlin, he has to collect them all and hopes to find another legendary one like sproles… lol

 

[speedicut]

There are ways to make him taller

5'7" 169. No thanks Rainey/Archer...
