    similar body size. Masoli was running routes today in Srping Practice. Have you seen footage that proves he cant?

    He's never played a down in college at RB. He's MAYBE 5'9" but probably closer to 5'8". The link you provided about Hester has pretty much every potential NFL prospect in the country. Even guys from Portland State. Masoli isnt listed anywhere that I can find. Why do you think that is?

    Jordan Kent also only played barely more than a year of football. 6th Round.

    Kent was also a fantastic athlete. Teams are more likely to take a chance on a great athlete they think they can mold into a football player, as opposed to a running QB with legal troubles who's never played RB, and think they can make him a RB. There's so many legit RBs in college, who have spent years running the position. If Masoli was a supreme athlete, I would say maybe. As is, is the CFL still around?

    Well I think him being molded into an RB is part of the reason he is hanging around personally. But I doubt it would be because he thinks he is an NFL QB.. if so, he will be dissappointed.

    Still, his thinking is he's going to stick around all year, and then all of 2011, and hope to get drafted in the late rounds and stick with a team? He should try to get on a CFL or arena team now as a RB, and learn while getting paid.
