    Re: lendy holmes

    I saw that the official site has him as a DB now, so that should quash all the "it's just a rumor" talk over on the dorks site.

    Re: lendy holmes

    it doesn't look like anyone else changed positions though they have zaslaw as a running back. fred strong and alonzo dotson still being on the roster does raise some eyebrows.

    here's the quote:

    Holmes dominated from a wide receiver position making a number of great catches. He went up with two defenders all over him to make one long T.D. catch and a diving catch on a tipped ball for another. He runs great routes for a kid that spent most of his high school career at quarterback and has great hands.
    what i read is that in THAT game, he played well and ran good routes

    perhaps against a D/FW metroplex all star game, he might just be able to have done that......ya think?

    Well, they didn't say anything about him fielding punts in that game. It begs the questions who is cliff and what does he know about talent evaluation though?

    That's what I was wondering. Isn't that just some doofus like us posting on an ag site?

    Either he ran great routes..or the more likely that he ran busted routes and was capable of making adjustments to make catches seem more spectacular or difficult than they should/could have been.

    Re: lendy holmes

    I should also add an addendum that this was from what I can tell by that other thread linked here an all star game of sorts. So any routes would have been minimalist at best and freelancing them would have been more likely just due to the nature of how long a preparation period they had.

    Re: lendy holmes

    it was a dallas area (only) all star game....he was likely a man among boys in many respects

    regardless, the author of the post in question never proclaimed to be anything other than a casual observer of a football game.....i didnt see where he said he was a paid scout of some sort

    it was just an opinion and should be left as is.....besides, Lendy Holmes has 3 more years to make a name for himself. i say we sit back and see if he can......
