Right now, Josey is the guy everyone is whispering about quietly hoping no one hears the conversation. Talking out loud everyone says "well he was hurt" and "small back couldn't take the wear and tear"...."doesn't have breakaway speed". (Well yeah, but you just described half of the RB corp in the NFL) He's not going to be a breakaway back, but he's got all the skills to be a Sprole's type of player and his character/personal life are what GM's and Coaches have wet dreams over. |

Well, I had a pipe dream of Josey making it to the fifth round where we would snatch him up. His 40 time alone probably kills that dream. Good for him, though. I will pull for HJ no matter what team he ends up on.

If Josey goes to the Raiders or Broncos then we can't be friends until he leaves those teams.

Charles ran a 4.38 on a faster track (old RCA dome). Josey ran a 4.43 (official) in Lucas Oil. If Charles was a breakaway back, and I think we can all argue he was, then Josey surely is.

In the scheme of calling him a breakaway back, yes he has the skills to, but I guess I don't see him like I do Jamaal. JMO and yes I can be wrong as rain. |

I still wonder if MAYBE another ounce or two of speed might be in those legs (maybe getting him to a flat 4.4, officially?). But can't overstate how excited I am for Henry. Kid deserves it.

I also disagree with the NFL.com scouting report in many regards. One knee injury does not mean he has serious durability concerns. Guys who are repeatedly injured have those concerns. It also said he didn't get extra yards. Josey consistently moved the pile this year, getting yards after contact that other Mizzou backs didn't. Sometimes, I think they just look at a guy's measureables and extrapolate those to perceived performance.

Urban Meyer paid his bail and extended him an offer.

Losing the Davis twins to Nebraska is a ****ing shit sandwich.

Their uncle played there. Need to keep digging and try to overcome that. Nebraska falling on its face this year and Pelini getting fired probably wouldn't hurt, either.
