Neiko Thorpe

Not someone i really know a huge amount about but this guy has been outstanding on special teams this year. Made a load of good plays. No idea if hes any good at corner back though.

He's been an impressive gunner. Deandre Elliot has played well also.

Agreed. Those two guys have been in the returner's face in every game so far. Great to see.

Remember, this is why we brought MikeRob on with the Seahawks. Not only was he a good FB at the time, he was a damn good ST player.

There's something about a great ST player, that with training, translates on to the field.

Are any of the backup DBs getting any game reps at all?
Excepting McCray, obviously.

THORPEDO!.....should catch on pretty quick

Definitely one of the coolest names ever...

:2thumbs: Thanks.

I'm not sure what that means, considering most games this season have been nailbiters, and I'm sure you'd have to drag Earl, Sherm, and Shead off the field kicking and screaming.

It seems like ideally we'd want Elliot, Powell, and Thorpe to get some reps. It has to happen sooner or later.

I'll say as long as we keep seeing flashes of Ricardo Lockette in him on ST, that'll be good enough for me, his speed as a gunner is pretty impressive
