Guess who is back? Your friendly Intergalactic Agent. I’m taking a hiatus from my destruction of Earth research. I needed the break.
I can hardly breathe. College Football is around the corner. Florida State’s first game is 60 days away. So today, I’m taking at look at a Seminole. One of the most dynamic football players in the Country: Jalen Ramsey!
Talk about a playmaker! Jalen Ramsey is just that. He does it all well, tackles, covers and even pressures the QB. He might be one of the most dynamic football players in College Football in 2016. And no one should be surprised by it. Ramsey was a 5 star recruit out of high school. He was one of the top prospects in the Country in 2013. An original USC commit, he switched to FSU and began making an impact on the field immediately
Ramsey started at CB as a freshman. He was the first freshman to start at CB at FSU since Dion Sanders. But don’t box Ramsey into the cornerback position. A lot of NFL scouts are projecting him to be the first safety off the board in April 2016.
Ramsey is a great tackler. He is a solid hitter who never gives up on plays. When he gets to the ball carrier he arrives FAST. Ramsey is a two sport start at FSU. He runs tracks for FSU as well.
If I were going to compare Jalen Ramsey to an Alien Weapon of Destruction. Ramsey would be my circumplanetary bomb. He is ready to explode on the National scene in 2015. Get ready to hear his BOOM!

Thanks for the report Piggy! I hate getting hyped about guys like this because (hopefully) we will probabaly have no shot at him when we pick. That said, I’ll keep an eye out for him just in case!
The hardest working alien in the business. Thanks Wedge. Ramsey looks pretty good.
I wonder if Jalen Ramsey is like Gordan Ramsey.
Yelling in his team mates face after they screw up – You f__cking idiot, how F__cking stupid are you?
I don’t think we will catch Jalen Ramsey doing this
Great job Piggles!
Brian – Safeties don’t usually get drafted very early, so we may got a shot at Ramsey
Well it looks like the Fins stayed out of trouble this weekend? 🙂
That’s called Suh-afraid, it’s a good thing.
We have a couple of guys on the roster now who if they show enough this year will make taking a Safety a non issue. Thomas, Aiken and Ced Thompson. All three have an arrow pointing way up.
Ramsey does however fit the mold, so to speak, that we’ve seen with Hickey so far about taking guys with a lot of versatility. Ramsey could surely give you some playing time as a corner and at safety as well.
Ced baby! I like that kid!
I hope everyone had a great 4th of July weekend.
I’m not looking at safety as being a concern at all at this time. We have proven guys and good young talent competing. In fact I’m not sure we have great needs at any position until we see that’s the case after this season.
We had a great 4th Tim, was a great day with friends and fireworks.
Yesterday we had a huge storm, not the kind that hits and runs like usual this thing sat there and pounded us for a few hours.
Cool, same here. My brother-in-law did the fireworks as usual along with the neighbors down the street. We usually have a battle and they beat us this year but everyone got to enjoy the display. We got a little rain right after we finished which was good to dampen any remaining cinders.
I had a fun weekend. I went glamping with my sister and another friend of ours. We stayed in a restored 1955 Spartan camper named the Silver Bettie outside Asheville, NC. Very retro but had a hot tub on the deck and some other conveniences like indoor plumbing! We had planned to do this before I broke my foot, I wasn’t going to go, but they talked me into it. The location where the camper was was straight out of Deliverance. First thing I said to my sister and friend when I pulled up to the site was ‘I hear banjo music!’
They did some hikes in the area which I couldn’t do. Then on Saturday evening, we were supposed to hike up to the top of a mountain in Black Mountain, NC to watch fireworks from above. Since I couldn’t hike I rode up in a 4 wheeler with some of the organizers of the hike. They had a supply truck carrying everyone’s chairs and coolers. About 100 people in total including the guides. Very cool vantage point.
When you have a broken foot and go into the wilderness its called glamping.
Sounds like a lot of fun, must have been cool to see fireworks from a mountain top. Good thing you got a ride so you didn’t miss it.
I’m guessing glamping is a combo of camping-glamorous-limping
LOL @ glamping
Cool stuff, Herd. You didn’t hear any squealing did you? LOL

I had a great time on the 4th. We did fireworks too, you may have heard, we had a little accident with JPP. I feel a little guilty.
What happened with JPP?
It was nice to see Matz pitch well again and the Mets have a hitting party. 🙂
Ha ha who knew “Glamping” was a real thing? That trailer looks cool, I would love to stay there.
Herd
Way to take it to the punctuation police! 🙂
No kidding, I thought it was a typo at first
Me too! LOL
Herd,
That looks awesome. I may have to try that sometime. We recently stayed in a place in Gatlinburg, but I could see Glamping….that would be fun. 4th of July was awesome……fireworks by the lake Saturday and Pool party at home yesterday!
I hope everyone made it through safe without burnt fingers or a blown off head.
If we draft Ramsey, Jones might as well pack his bags. I think if we go for a Safety that high then we are looking to shed an expensive contract with a start right away rookie. I dont support doing this but i dont deny the possibility of it. Saftey, like pointed out before, isnt a big concern for me, so drafting one in round one would be a business move.
That’s a good point
JPP had a fireworks accident, damaged his hand. Didn’t blow his fingers off, but he has some nerve damage and burnt skin. Apparently, something like a cherry bomb went off in his hand.
He’ll be playing this year with his nub. lol
JPP = Just Partial Paralysis
Tim
I’m thinking maybe Matz can play SS when he doesn’t pitch. I’m sure he can make any throw, and it would be nice to have his bat in the lineup.
Lefty? LOL
At least you were thinking baseball, I was trying to figure out what throws a Strong Safety has to make.
Hey, he can hit!
LOL @ Son – Hopefully just throwing down a spike after returning an INT for a TD.
I think our main safeties will be R. Jones, Delmas, Aikens and Thomas. Delmas needs to show he’s back from knee surgery but early on in OTAs he was running around with everyone else.
45 min. fireworks show over Corpus Christi Bay was a great 4th !! Got a table at a restaurant a few hundred yards from where fireworks were launched off a barge… after a great dinner the bartender let us through the kitchen back door to an amazing deck for an unobstructed view with the kitchen staff. Yup, he got a great tip. 🙂

“He just continues to work.”
Chris Chambers on Jarvis Landry: http://oak.ctx.ly/r/3ahj3
He wants to be great. He knows he’s not the biggest and fastest WR so he works on every part of his game including speed and strength.
Go Jarvis!!!!
Attitude determines your altitude….
D, Jarvis has Jerry Rice’s work ethic. He did the same offseason work Jarvis is doing. He waned to be the best he could be.
I know, i dont think he has anything keeping him from being a star. His attitude is good so his chance to rise up is high.
Yep! He along with Jennings will be a great influence on Parker and Stills and any other young WR we keep. Lead by example.
Wow, FSU goes from one QB with controversy to another.

2014 Michigan State Cotton Bowl Blocked Punt Tony Lippett Block of the Year https://youtu.be/leS7fBIACnM via @YouTube
I like Lippett but don’t see how that block is anything special. The entire right side of the Baylor formation collapsed under the MSU rush. 2 guys were in the backfield.
eh, left side of the Baylor formation (right side of MSU’s formation) but you get the idea.
He’s a playmaker in all phases, just roll with it. 🙂
lol, i mean, i was commenting on the blocked kick and lead in title to the video but Lippett wasn’t in on the block just pancaking the kicker who wasn’t looking while chasing down the return man.
Al, just joking. Let’s hope Lippett is one of those right place right time guys, we need some more of those types of players.
Tim,
I hope so too and I think he will be.
Too bad Lou isn’t as optimistic for other Fins DB players lol.
He’s been on a rampage crapping all over Will Davis.
You’d think Davis is the worst DB ever reading his comments lol.
I’m most excited to see the competition play out at LB & CB in terms of training camp.
For me it’s G, depth at TE, the 5th and/or 6th WR, the 4th RB if we carry one. Then the possible 4th and/or 5th DT, SOLB and total LB depth, and the entire secondary with the exception of a few.
Grimes, Taylor, Br. McCain, Bowman, Bo. McCain, Davis (coming off of knee surgery), Lippett and Seamster with Aikens being cross trained for depth or the best spot for him in the secondary. I think we’ll find a solid group from competition.
I see 5 CB and 4 S with one for both at DB (Aikens) for a total of 10.
Don’t forget Cedric Thompson as well
I didn’t mention any safeties by name. We know who they are. 😉
If Ced Thompson shows enough in TC he could make the 53 man as a 10th DB who will be inactive until needed. He has upside but probably not ready to beat out other guys for playing time now.
Ced could make it as the fourth Safety with Lippett and Aikens as swing men but it would signify a strong youth movement:
Grimes, Taylor, McCain, McCain, Lippett
Jones, Delmas, Thomas, Thompson, Aiken
We’d lose out on Davis and the experience Bowman brings, unless Bowman beat out the older McCain in which case we lose experience as well. Don Jones gets cut again too.
I think Aikens is ahead of Thompson in playing time at this time. But that’s my roster. 🙂
A young guy has to outplay Bowman.

Hey guys
That video is not Lippett blocking the punt
It’s Lippett blocking or CRUSHiNG the punter in the quick return
It’s pretty awesome
With the replay just before it ends
