Ping: gstelmack
 

Someone around here (I won't reveal it's you Josh!) pointed out to me that you should be pinged about the latest rookie I drafted for my team. The Maassluis Merchantmen of the IHOF selected Hunter Stelmack at the 13th pick of the 6th round. :)

I heard that he has no shot at actually making the team

I heard something similar, but after seeing he's from Virginia Tech, I'm guessing his odds are better than said.

Jessie Eckberg is soooo much better... ;)

I can see it now.

SLO picks up Stelmack after Maassluis cuts him, leading to a scenario in which Dennis Cressio tosses a screen pass to Hunter Stelmack. Stelmack turns on the jets, blows by Jessie Eckberg in the secondary, and romps to a touchdown.

Eckberg would never make it on the field to allow that.

Never underestimate the power of nepotism...

I've got an outside linebacker mentor I'm not using if you want to add to that power a little bit, Jeebs. ;)

I'd love to see his combine numbers. It would only be justice if he was one of those slow burners that was a 60+ in 3 or 4 years...

Don't hold your breath...
Solecismic Score: 26 (tied 11th-13th amongst RBs)
40-yard dash: 4.82 (48th amongst RBs)
Strength test: 15 (tied 20th-25th amongst RBs)
agility test: 7.39 (tied 38th-29th amogst RBs)

The reason he got drafted were his kickoff return and special teams skills.
