Training camp fodder or the real deal??

Tim Tebow wanted him to be a Jet... so it is a good signing.

Wonder if this means Bolden doesn't make roster or if there is no FB?

Ridley,Vereen,Woody,Bolden,Demps ?

Ridley,Vereen,Woody,Demps, Larsen/Kettani?

Definately need a boost on field position from kickoffs/punts.

How good a player was he in college? Any thoughts on where he would have been drafted had he entered the draft?

Great signing, and also funny since JI had a megathread going about how badly they wanted him.

I wouldn't read to much into it now. IMO this means BB realizes we need help at KR and that RB is thin so why not kick the tires. I think it is way to early to assume that he will be taking anyones roster spot just because he is fast. He has to first prove he can return kicks and probably prove he can at least start to learn the RB position on this team.

Definitely a fun signing though and something we will all be looking at closely.

The knock is he struggles breaking any contact, but he is as fast as it gets. So we will see. If he is good enough he will stick. I'm hopeful>

He was thought to be about a 5th rounder. Though if he ran a 4.1 or 4.2 40, as he reportedly can do, he may have shot up as high as the 2nd round.
