Shaquem Griffin UCF Good Story

[jitter77]

I did not hear of this guy till today but checked out his story. Pretty impressive for a guy playing with basically one arm. I heard he got a combine invite based on turning heads at the senior bowl. I would definitely give this guy a shot in the later rounds. Here are some highlights

I have to hand

it to the kid that is determination.

I've seen him play. He's All Right...

 

[AggieSteel]

He’s got all the athletic ability required to play ILB and then some. And he’s got insane amounts of heart and competitiveness. If he’s still available in a late round, we should def take a look. We need depth at ILB

The guy was all over the place against Auburn.
Pretty quick guy.

His twin plays for Seattle

I watched a couple of UCF games and he was a stand out. I wish the best for him and his NFL future.

50% less chance of being called for holding.

Great story, but seriously?

Great story, but seriously?

seriously what?

there is always one player who always bucks the odds one way or another.

Why not him?

The muscle mass in that hand-less arm seems to be noticeably smaller, you do of course wonder if that could hold him back. But maybe the kid could develop a Reggie White type move to compensate. Club yinz to death. Ala Captain Caveman.

If Jim Abbot could play baseball with one hand, a defensive player could certainly play football with less difficulty.
