HuskerShark Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Jr. offensive highlight film: I'd take him as a DB or a RB. It looks like he runs almost as fast as Taylor but also has some cutting ability and breaks a lot of tackles. This game is about athletes, and from this tape, it appears that's what this kid is. Bring him in and see where he fits. Link to comment
NoLongerN Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 I couldn't imagine another Martinez even considering the Huskers. I'll bump my previous statement ... this kid should stay away from Husker Nation. Link to comment
Atbone95 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 How come there aren't any highlights of him thowing..? Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 How come there aren't any highlights of him thowing..? Because Drake us more of a runningback and safety. Biggest difference between the two is Drake sure isn't afraid of contact Link to comment
TonyStalloni Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 If Marcus McWilson is indeed having second thoughts, the door may have opened wider for Drake to accept our offer. I hope he becomes a Husker and shows us what hard work can do to make a great college player. Link to comment
HuskerT Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 If he were to come here I guess it would mean that Taylor actually likes it here. You'd have to think that Taylor would tell him if he didn't. Link to comment
gobiggergoredder Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 He looks like an athletic LB to me. Something we need. Link to comment
ADS Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 He looks like an athletic LB to me. Something we need. I like the idea of adding 10 pounds of muscle and letting him run around the field making plays. Almost in a Eric Hagg type of position. Link to comment
C N Red Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 He definitely has better hips than TM. He is shiftier and changes direction nicely. I could definitely see him at safety. Link to comment
macroboy Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 why wouldn't he be a walk-on? No real offers from other programs. Is it just too disrespectful to the family? Link to comment

StPaulHusker Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 He definitely has better hips than TM. He is shiftier and changes direction nicely. I could definitely see him at safety. I hear this statement a lot about hips. I am kind of new at looking at game film but from the distance these games are being recorded, I am not sure if you can tell this or not. I would think you would need closer footage or some kind of combine tape, wouldn't you? I am not disagreeing with your assessment so much as I am not sure how you can make this determination from 100 yards away. Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Having said what I just said, I would like to see him here. I like his height for a DB and he appears to be very physical. He and Gerry look like they could do some damage in a few years. Link to comment
Creighton Duke Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 why wouldn't he be a walk-on? No real offers from other programs. Is it just too disrespectful to the family? How many offers did TM have? Not many. Link to comment
