Not the best of fits for him, but for his sake I hope it works out. The fact 13 DBs were taken ahead of him, some coming off ACL tears, is extremely alarming. At this point I'm just glad he got drafted.
Not necessarily. He might have gotten hurt again like Exum and fallen to an even later round. Plus can you blame him for wanting to get away from the VT medical staff as quickly as possible?
Great pick by the skins, excellent value at this point.

# | ODU to Host Penn State, Maryland and Michigan in June; Coach Wilder Said He Would Call Coaches Fuente and Mendenhall to Attend I like the idea of VT doing its own camp. Something about it being
under ODU didn't seem right. Look forward to seeing how it plays out.
Never been a Skins fan but with all these Hokies I'm a convert.
Nice that Kendall can play so close to home. Too bad about round 3
but I guess you never know in the draft. Hope he has a good season.
Do y'all think Hokies are developing a reputation with the skins?
Real happy for Kendall. DC is a great place for him to be.
3 Hokies DB's!
You always need something to soak up a blowout. AmIright?
Just heard this gem on the radio r.e. the draft:
Myles Jack should've wrapped his knee in a gas mask, he'd have been fine.
You can't get an agent until you declare for the draft.
It's not like it wasn't his choice to play on a bum knee.
Not where I expected but still deserving a....
Student athletic fees are almost $1,000 at a school across the street from Michigan's Stadium, whose students never, seriously never attend events. All events, not just football. And they are decent at none of them. There has been rumors that the athletic boosters practically folded after changing the name to Eagles from Hurons. Apparently, they couldn't figure out how Utah uses the eagle mascot, and keeps the Utes name.
His agent should be fired. Completely misread the draft and extent his injury would damage his prospects. He would've made millions more if he had stayed an extra year. I feel good for Fuller, of course, but it could've been so much better.
None of this sounds encouraging, but as for the names on the wall, is it possible that its only letter holders listed? For example, I'm pretty sure that for the Monogram Club you had to have earned a varsity letter. Don't have a clue how letter holders are determined on the football team, but if the player in question was not a starter that could be a reason. For example, in swim/dive the athlete needs have been on the championship meet squad or scored a certain number of points during the season to earn a varsity letter.
Just a thought. But even if this is the case, I think all team members should be up there. These kids live the life for their teams.
Microfracture surgery is no joke... Unlike repairing torn ligaments (which seems to get better from year to year), microfracture surgery is like the equivalent of a skull with crossed bones beneath, because seemingly players aren't able to come back from it 100% like they were on a consistent basis. Yes, Kendall had 1st round talent... But what if he never produced to his full potential again? This is most likely the thinking of NFL GM's and their scouting staffs. Because we saw what happened to Fuller while he was injured.
On a side note, I was very disappointed to see him fall past the first part of the second round. He's a great player, and he probably fell a round for the same reason Myles Jack did (although with Jack, it is scares that he may have to have the surgery in the near future due to degeneration of ligaments in his knee). Fuller was EASILY better than almost all of the DB's in this draft class when he was 100% (barring Ramsey and maybe Hargreaves) and I will miss having him lock up one side of the field for use while Facyson locks up the other side.
IDAHO DROPS FOOTBALL like a hot potato
No one?
Shame dudes aren't weren't in DC.
Effing Hail!
THIS is SWEET!!!!
3rd Round is still good, but I'm sure this is a bit of a bruiser. I'm sure he thought he would go higher. Wonder if this would have changed his decision.
Yeah, they filmed all around where I live in Upper Matecumbe. It was fun to look at the scenery in the show and recognize all the places, and bust on them when all of the stuff was wrong (like mile markers where a particular place was, for example).
I watched it...well...tried to watch it...but gave up on it after 5 to 7 episodes because I thought it was terrible. My son told me to stick with it because it got better - and he was right. I guess it takes time to get these things to develop, but I think it is fairly entertaining as season one ends. It's no "Breaking Bad", but the scenery is exceptional, they capture Keys life fairly well, and the plot finally seems to be moving along now with some unpredictable intrigue...so...I'm in for season 2.
Hey the Skins are having a pretty great draft am I right? Kendall might be the steal of the draft!
A crime that he wasn't drafted earlier, and that the VT staff decided to play him with a torn meniscus.
May take a little while, but this guy is gonna be special. Good luck throwing on a team with J-No and a full strength Kendall Fuller.
As a Panther's fan I don't know if I'll ever forgive Gettleman for not only passing on him once, but then trading up to take a wvu db...
Hail yes!!
