It will probably come down to his intelligence and ability to read CFL defences. He's an aeronautical engineer. The guy can be an astronaut or work for NASA. I don't think figuring out motion & the 12th man will be a problem for him. Staying healthy & longevity will. Tracker and ddanger 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark F Posted July 30, 2023 Report Share Posted July 30, 2023 (edited) I am skeptical about skills from other fields transferring to football. navy seal, Engineer, computer scientist. Eg grey is an engineer, but how is that helping him figure out who to block during a game? engineers dont have three hundred pound guys squashing them while they calculate.

Stickem Posted July 30, 2023 Report Share Posted July 30, 2023 Looked Tyjuan Garbut up and tuned into some of his hi-lites.....The guy certainly can move for a big man....always seemed to be around the ball and might just fit in here at a position we're currently lacking in....Hope we get a good look at him soon Tracker and bb1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't practice when he had the opportunity after 5 weeks on the 6 game injured list. He's been put on the 6 game list again.

Much better than old man lemon imo. Big de and exceptionally good pass rusher. Under rated hands, great size, exceptional quick twitch guy.

Booch Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 Size grade is pointless and should only be referred to in analysis as player being "undersized" compared to league average If you can do the job ..u can do the job...many undersized guys excel The one instance where that could/should be a grade consideration is for short armed on-line guys ..as that trait makes a huge difference..

I 100%. When I see a 6’0 linemen or wr succeed and become a prospect at the level of high upside oversized guys I expect the 6’0 guy to over achieve. Des in specific should be rated more like basketball players. Used to be you had to be 6’10+ to be a pf or c in the nba. Till teams finally recognized that 4 inches of forehead doesn’t do much, where as 4” of standing reach / wing span does. Habba has been excellent so far and we’ve seen a bunch of 6’ and under dl excel for the bombers in the past. Lower centre of gravity and the ability to get under tall guys is a huge advantage. Two of his sacks came from him basically ducking under the arms of tall tackles. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were talking receiver, or even FT DE/DT you could be right. However, it is not hard to get even a raw rookie up to snuff enough to be a successful rotational DL. He can definitely help us this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It translates pretty well between American and Canadian football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
