Don't think he is worth that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark F Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) If he plays like that video.... Bombers will be able to win games with a couple of field goals for points. The hitting will be "off the charts" Looks like the NFL screwed this up. our good luck. scouting report, just read it "Eric Martin is about as sure of a tackler as any player in the draft."

Looks like the prototypical wedge breaker the nfl used to employ. I dont watch the nfl any more, but iirc in 09 the out lawed it is it still against the rules? Even so gunner on teams all day.

rebusrankin Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Hurl's deal was for $120,000 plus a bonus of $1000 per game started. So we likely save $18,000 on that this year. TBURGESS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't see anything above the head & below the knees. He has one that is most likely a horse-collar tackle but other that he's very good. Hoping he adjust to the CFL nuances in short amount of time.

Tracker Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 A very good analysis, thanks to MOAB. Sounds like he has all the tools to be a Ty Jones rush-backer type player. He sounds smart and young enough to adapt to the CFL game and excel at it. I'm looking forward to seeing the impact he makes. The Bomber scouting looks to be paying off big time.

Rich Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Technically whole articles shouldn't be posted. Articles behind pay walls should definitely not be posted. It is a copyright infringement. It costs money for those other websites to create content and they should get the traffic and potential ad revenue for creating it. It isn't something we've always stringently enforced, but could easily become something we have to enforce if other sites complain or becomes common place. johnzo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Articles behind pay walls should definitely not be posted. Like I said, it isn't something we've stringently enforced, but it really should be avoided if at all possible. Something like this would be the preferred method: Quote Eric Martin is an excellent pass-rushing athlete who played for Nebraska in his college days. However, his NFL outlook could constitute a position switch. He's a quick, strong and athletic player who would benefit from a move to an outside linebacker and defensive end hybrid role. He should be taken late in the draft as a rotational player and project for a team needing one. Explore what makes Eric Martin a potential NFL player here: Overall Strengths + Martin has great athleticism and good size for an outside linebacker in both 3-4 and 4-3 sets. + Rushing the passer is a true strength for Martin. + He's a very secure tackler and delivers hits with good pop. + He shows good hand usage for a defensive end, but it would be great at linebacker. Overall Weaknesses - He was never used at linebacker and always had his hand in the dirt compromising his potential in college. - He was rarely used in coverage and therefore is very unknown there. - There are times when his size becomes a huge disadvantage against the run, and he gets blocked out of plays. ......

Then the site that created it gets the traffic for the author(s) they had to pay to write it. Noeller, Atomic and johnzo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
