Most of the time, when a young player steps in and exceeds expectations, we see it coming.
Dennard was one of the best corners in D1 football. Jones was a hot commodity on draft day, with athletic bloodlines and arms like vines. Deaderick was always seen as a guy with some NFL potential because of his prototypical 5-tech body. Sterling Moore? Raiders fans thought he was the best corner at their camp, so we knew he had ball skills. Woodhead is a D2 god, won the D2 Heisman equivalent twice. Bolden was one of the best backs in the SEC and scouts were buzzing about him in 2010. There was something about all these players that got us legitimately excited.
Justin Francis? Average looking tackle/end tweener with mediocre production from a Big East school, who looked terrible in the 4 preseason games. Lousy pro day numbers. Yet in every game he's played, he's racked up a couple of QB hits and pushed the pocket, with 3 sacks to show for it. No undrafted defensive player has made the same impact as he has this season.
Shout out to the Pats scouting department for finding this kid.:rocker:
