KRL Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 We signed him as a UDFA out of Ohio St. He's a WR/KR/PR after looking at his scouting report and highlight video he be could someone to watch at camp. He's the "anti-Kerley" from what I've seen: Scouting Report http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/profiles/jalin-marshall?id=2555475 Highlights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuscanyTile2 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I would love to come back to these threads in the middle or at the end of next year and see how many of these types of guys (WRs Robby Anderson and Charone Peake,, Jalin Marshall and our UDFA punter Tom Hackett) actually made it. Marshall seems impressive (maybe a punt/kick returner?) as does Hackett (who looks like he could be a pro bowler). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRL Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 In addition to Jalin Marshall, Lachlan Edwards and Tom Hackett we also signed Ross Martin a kicker out of Duke. From his scouting report he could challenge Folk: http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/profiles/ross-martin?id=2555377 We could have rookies at all the "special" spots this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, Landry has made his mark in the league, but watching Marshall bounce off guys and fight through arm tackles and keep his balance..... a guy can hope, right? Landry is such an excellent Punt Returner.... hope this guy or someone else can fill the void. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriot Killa Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 We may not even need this beast at KR/PR if he shows promise on offense. He seems to have hands. Let's see how this plays out. I really like the last few WR signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redlichtie Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 As others have said KRL I always click on a thread you have started as I always know there'll be valuable info or a well thought through opinion. as for Marshall/Kerley I'm obviously in the minority in recognising the value in a Punt Returner who never turns the ball over which is exactly what JK was, he was rock solid under the ball, contrast that with the myriad KR's with tried in the last few years (Powell, Saunders! Smith)who've been dumped after fumbling away or dropping kicks after a handful of reps in game situations. Priority number 1 is you need a reliable pair of hands fielding the ball and for all the criticism of his lack of splash plays and the many fair catches ask yourself when was the last time you worried about us muffing or dropping a punt? that said Marshall looks fantastic(as with Peake and Anderson I'm wondering how the hell these guys go undrafted)but then these UDFA's and late rounders always look good in May and June but once training camp starts, reality kicks in. Really hoping that one of Marshall, Peake or Anderson can prove to be a hidden gem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetster Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 He reminds me of Lavereous Coles. Runs like a running back with a very strong base & balance when he cuts. You can tell he's not afraid of contact which I believe is Devin Smiths issue, other than not having a starting QB who actually throw to match his speed.

But yet I'm still a sucker for this stuff. I could see this guy being a good KR/PR and 4th WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, there have been a few UDFA's who have gone on to have very good NFL careers, but the reality is the vast majority are nothing more than training camp fodder. There is a reason why they are UDFA's in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also a better idea to watch the prospect against better competition instead of the "weak sisters" they often play at the college level . Try a game the team lost .

sourceworx Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 My brother-in-law is a big time OSU fan (and alum). He absolutely loves this guy. Says a lot of people feel if he stayed one more year in Columbus to refine his skills a little more, he could have been a high pick in next year's draft. Fans were very disappointed that he left this year. He's a Percy Harvin type of RB/WR tweener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
