McCloughan sees this kid as gym muscle. All show no go. He is a big dude maybe if he doesn't work at the HB position he can make a career at the FB position.
He could make a nice career here with SF. I think Juice is the kind of dude that would help.

If the plan is FB that's f**king horrible. Folks gotta realize Juice is one of one as far as playing fullback goes.

once he's done the FB position isn't gonna be what we think it is with him.

I am curious as to why you think they can't develop another's player. Juice was a TE in college that converted to FB in the prison. Why couldn't the 49ers do the same or take an actual college fullback? I do think its interesting that they haven't tried (on record) to groom another player, but I'd really like to know why this isn't possible.

😳

So that was supposed to be league. How that came out as prison....idk lol.

I've often wondered about why some of these guys that have all the physical tools fail in the NFL. The only thing I can see other than poor team fit is they can't handle the competition. In high school and college the biggest and fastest get by on their physical skills. In the NFL everyone is good and physical ability alone won't cut it. That's where the mental part comes in. Some can't handle the fact that they just can't outrun or out jump everyone. They have to think. They have to perfect their skills. They have to endure pain every week. They have to face the fact that they aren't the biggest, baddest guy on the field. Some can't cope with that.

He has all the measurables and tangible skill, like speed, power, blocking and catching, but so do many busts, because they lack these intangibles:
Intangibles for a RB:
#1. Vision and instincts, feel for where the hole will be
#2. Decisive burst into the hole hard and fast
#3. Elusiveness and short area quickness
#4. Mental toughness and fearless
#5. Contact balance
