But I think his "football personality" is a MAJOR turnoff for both DC and Holmes... We'll see... Maybe they got to know him better and are convinced he is dedicated to the game in a way that they believe in him, as CC is saying... They have passed on physical freaks before that didn't love the game enough though... specifically Jalen Carter with the Eagles (or was it because he went to Georgia instead of Alabama...? HAH!!!)

Jason_R Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago The Alabama connection is probably just coincidental. Big-time programs get big-time athletes. But I suspect they also liked prospects coached by Nick Saban. Per https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Kadyn-Proctor-OL-Alabama: “He was a consensus All-American and finished second on Bruce Feldman's Freaks List: 815-pound squat, 535-pound bench, 405-pound power clean. Alabama handed him the ball five times during the year as a nod to his athleticism.“ The only “character” concern I’ve seen is weight. Apparently he got up to 370 pounds and suffered in pass protection. But at the combine he weighed in at 352. Quote
