C-A-T-S Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 Then again, Okoye is a grown man. A potentially still-growing one, in fact. He's 6'2'' now, but he could be 6'4'' in a couple of years. If he's currently 295, maybe his ideal playing weight is 310 or 320. Say his speed improves: Should he be kept at tackle or moved to end? Or will he take snaps at both? "His age is only a positive," says Eric DeCosta, the Ravens director of college scouting. "In two years, he can be a monster." He will become the youngest player in NFL history...He is on the front of ESPN.com, I wish the man (boy) the best and he will be a legend when he leaves the NFL... http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft07/news/story?id=2830642

ladiesbballcoach Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 Would love to see the Bengals trade up if necessary to get this young man. Think he has tremendous potential to be a game changer.
Pancake Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 Would love to see the Bengals trade up if necessary to get this young man. Think he has tremendous potential to be a game changer. This kid has not even started to tap into his potential yet... :walk:
RowdyRedRam Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 He has excellent potential to be an outstanding pro.
Pancake Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 I hope he does well, except when he plays against Pittsburgh...
Son of Bear Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 Will Bobby Petrino draft him with the 7th pick?
The measT Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Says one NFC GM: "Okoye has a pro's football knowledge, a senior's body and a freshman's age." - from article I hope he has a great career

RockPride Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Will Bobby Petrino draft him with the 7th pick? Unless there is a sick WR left...he should.
SouthernSportsFan Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 ... He entered college when he was 15?!
Cdirty107 Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 ... He entered college when he was 15?! He was actually 16 when he enrolled at UL. He'll turn 20 on June 10. Just an incredible athlete and student. Was Pre-med up until his last semester when he switched to Psychology so he could graduate early. He's gonna be an absolute stud in the league in a few years.
