.......Thought the Cajuns looked very good today....RBs and WRs caught the ball very well....skilled offensive guys it sure looks like we have on the offensive side......also I think the biggest TE ever to play for other Cajuns...300 plus I was told and he did look it!!!

Is a 300 lbs tight end necessarily a good thing? I'm thinking a tight end should be big enough to block, but quick enough to get open and get to the block.

Probably gonna use him in special packages where basically an extra tackle would be needed as that is where he played previously.

I imagine you are right and I also imagine that most teams will know exactly what is coming when he is in there. Just like when Ray comes into the game. We will be so predictable as in the past that it won't be much of an advantage at all.

Believe our huge tight end had played receiver and qb before.

Says he has great hands. We will see

The big TE did catch well and had not bad route runs .....the flag/up were a lil challenging however! Lol

The question is not his hands or speed, its whether the coaches are willing to actually use him in all capacities or just their comfort zone. Again, Ray is a perfect example of this. I understand his passing skills are not up to par with the rest of his game but when he's in there, everybody will know exactly what we are going to do unless the coaches allow him to keep people honest by passing from time to time.

Still timing him from yesterday's practice. Boomer using a sun dial.

300 pound tight end...I know what Hud is thinking...he is the perfect guy to beat people deep over the top.
