Did anyone see Lamont Jordan from Maryland last night?

KCTitus · 09-29-2000, 10:36 AM

He was rated as the top senior RB comming into the season, but hasn't had a good year to this point. I see where he had 114 yards against Florida State last night on only 17 carries including a 74 yard TD. Just curious to what you all thought of him if you got to see the game?

It was another case of Football State University beating up on a weak sister. Jordan had a few runs, but the line was stacked against him because the Terps have no passing game.

The 74yrdr was a thing of beauty. Jordan was able to run away from the FSU db's. Almost no one can do that.

I wondered about them stacking the line, and weather or not Maryland even has an offensive line. Lamont was rated the highest of any RB's prior to the season, but hasn't been able to post any numbers as a senior. Consequently, he has been passed up by a few other RB's.

I wonder if this could be another Dan Marino case when he was a senior? He was at the top with Elway going into his senior season, and his production dipped a bit. We all, especially Chiefs fans, know how that turned out.

I hope I catch a replay of the 74 yarder.

ck,

I guess why I am asking this is because I expect us to be picking around #20 again. i also expect the big names like McAllister and Tomlinson to be long gone by our pick. This could be a guy who might just be on the board when we pick, and was hoping he actually might be closer to his preseason hype than what his numbers show.

This wasn't really a game to judge him. FSU is just [b]so[/b] good. And the Terp offense is basically Jordan left, Jordan right, etc.

One of the announcers commented on how two of his linemen from last year were high draft picks and he was suffering this year. Also his QB looked lost everytime he went to pass. I don't think they'd completed a pass by halftime when I left.

As far as RB's and where we'll draft I'm assuming Jordan, Tomlinson, and Deuce will be gone. I'm personally scouting T. Henry.

He looked [b]real[/b] good in the FL game.

I take away the one 74 yard run and I see a 2.5 yard per carry on the other 16 runs which looks a lot like the rest of his season...

If the Chiefs continue to win, then I think you can take Henry off your draft list also.
