Positive Shump Post

[horshack.sixpack]

While not a fan of him up the middle, I did notice him running hard and making a few moves when the got the ball on the outside in space. If he's going to be in there to block, I'd much prefer we use him in that way. Maybe him seeing how hard Williams ran lit a fire, but it was the hardest I can recall seeing him go this year.

Felt obligated to note it since I've definitely made negative observations...

He's great on punt coverage too.

Yep. Noticed that as well. He was working hard on ST.

So what you're saying

is he could be a good defensive player...

I've been saying that for 3 years...

Plus he caused a fumble with his hit on kick coverage.

Just sayin...

Should have had a TD receiving last night as well.

I see him as a third down back in for blocking and catching passes out of the backfield. Although he has a couple of key drops on difficult passes he catches well.

Shump is always working hard on ST. Every punt or kick off he is usually one of the first to get to the ball/returner.

It's a shame because he would be a hell of a safety, or LB even but he wants to play RB, not play in the League.

He caught a pass for a TD last night that was called back. I think the obvious holding helped him get in though. But you gotta give the guy credit for trying.
