drocksthaparty Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 There have been several teams that have expressed interest lately in a former Marine, who is now 30 years old and plays WR. The Jets, Redskins and Ravens have all expressed interest in the 30 year old freak of an athlete. This is the interview I read on the kid, check him out. He told us at NFL Draft Zone that he has talked with 3 NFL teams, the Jets being one. What do you think, are they just making sure they leave all stones unturned or could this be a kid that really gets a shot because of talent? Here are his highlights, and there is an interview below, what do you think? He looks like he has good hands and is strong. http://www.hudl.com/athlete/2162427/highlights/33683397 http://nfldraftzone.com/draft-news/draft-zone-spotlight-brandon-obrien-wr-montana-state-northern/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbatesman Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 He's gritty, that's for sure. Maybe too gritty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New York Mick Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 He's worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drocksthaparty Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 I like the fact that he is still going for his dream. The guy is cut up and I am sure he is better than the guy we just signed as a future free agent. That guy has been on 3 teams already and been cut by all of them. Give this kid a shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redman81 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Give him a shot in the late rounds if no options really stand out above him. See what he has in camp. Can't teach heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Every. *******. Stone. Seems like the Jets will continue to use that in their process. How long does the good will of having a Freedom Fighter on the roster last if the Jets were to land him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsFanInDenver Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 First of all I would thank this Marine for his service to the nation. I am not sure what he brings in as a WR but i would definitely give him a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 He's gritty, that's for sure. Maybe too gritty. His grit is only amplified by his football IQ and coachability. Spends a lot of time in the film room, real gym rat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 His grit is only amplified by his football IQ and coachability. Spends a lot of time in the film room, real gym rat. But ya gotta wonder about his athleticism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergen Jet Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Doesn't hurt to work him out and maybe give him a camp invite to see what he has. Good for him for not giving up on a dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 i bet hes better then that draft pick we used on one of sanchez's friends LOL. Lucky for us he didn't have a ton of childhood friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernJet Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 LOL. Lucky for us he didn't have a ton of childhood friends. LOL, agree.

Thai Jet Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 He's worth a look. Absolutely. We have nothing to lose and need all the help we can get . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slats Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 In the interview, he says (or is misquoted as saying) that if he doesn't get drafted, he'd like to sign somewhere as an underrated free agent. Lol. He'd certainly be worth a look in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New York Mick Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Absolutely. We have nothing to lose and need all the help we can get . He's also earned it. He's worth a 7th round pick or FA tryout. If he does good in workouts then a higher pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
