LRZ ran 4.33 in prep. Slightly off at the Pro Day.
No disrespect but this feels a little under researched for the conversation, especially from the perspective of the International Player Pathway.
One of the biggest issues for anyone outside the US has is trying to break through the bias that exists toward them, that they haven’t been bought up knowing football. A number of years ago a guy called Victor Mohammed was on the Jets roster outperforming other RBs but got cut to make room for Blair Thomas.
ffs hes welsh xD didnt do any home work on him
rugby players will tackle the crap out of your biggest NFL guys. NFL is rugby for Girls
Rugby definitely has guys just as fast out there .. I’d argue that there is more speed in rugby than the nfl
It's been done
Maybe Zammit goes OK, maybe he doesn't …but NFL isnt gaining market share internationally over rugby.
Jarryd Hayne, Valentine Holmes we’re good rugby players but couldn’t even make the roster
Welsh he is from Brynamman awesome Welsh rugby player come on get it right guys
Why can’t Americans get geographically locations right ? Having said that, as an Irish rugby fan we’d take Louis on the team any day. Dudes a monster
American football, like ice hockey will never go global. The equipment costs too much.
Will be interesting to see how he does 💪🏼
Every rugby team has two wingers who are very fast.
"I think he's Irish"while showing him in a Welsh shirt!😂😂😂
It’s not hard to do a bit of research to know where he’s from 😂
This has exploded NFL fans in Wales!
I believe he is Irish 🤣🤣🤣 do your homework prior to presenting 😂😂
Hopefully we get to see a touchdown SIUUUUU one day
Rugby players end up playing Rugby. . American Football pretty well stays in the US
Did anyone watch the tape on this dude , he is a freak , KC has a Welsh Beast now , if u haven't seen the highlight reel its redic ,
"I believe he's Irish", 🤦 FFS mate
Pat and the gang, don't forget this man is playing rugby in a raw physical state, constantly clashing body and bone against each other. If anything the pads and helmet will give him more comfort and less worry.
The only thing I do worry about is him remembering and knowing the rules. That's the only issue I see!
I remembered Jarryd Hayne believe he from Australia rugby who was nice for 49ers in the pre season he was fun and unique to watch.
but…Jordan Mailata?? Was rugby first. IPP def making an impact.
The only bit of talent Welsh Rugby had left…
I feel like it’s a similar skill set and similar physical requirements
I’d love to see a play designed around the rugby pass/lateral. That would be so cool.
American football came from rugby
People keep failing to mention he’s 6’3’ and jacked and also the 4.45 time is a big misrepresentation, apparently he’s ran like a 4.29
Irish? He's in a photo with a Wales shirt on.
There are SO many rugby players that would kill in the NFL, i think theres a bias towards american players because if that country accepts that athletes could come over and destroy on the field then that would mean that they arent the best at producing their own athletes. its common knowledge around the world that american leagues favour their own nationality of players ie basketball and football
He’s Welsh 🏴 you edda !!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Can confirm he’s as Irish as they come. Was in my class in primary school🇮🇪🇮🇪☘️☘️
He has strength, skill, and speed, look forward to seeing how he progresses. Personally I'd love to see him in the NFL
The real problem for any rugby player coming to the cowards' parade of NFL will be dealing with all the time he will have nothing to do. A good solid Welsh Rugby Union player expects to play two halves of only slightly interrupted play, during which he or she has to demonstrate skills and tactical awareness in both attack and defence, without pauses for tactical instructions with pictures for the illiterate.
I suppose he's got over the hilarious facts about NFL, It's called FOOT-BALL even though only one player usually makes contact with the ball with his feet and the major purpose is to play the man, not the ball. Hmm… "Play the man" eh? There's a cosy little bar in a side street off the main drag, (DRAG… Get it?) full of men who would love to get paid doing that.
Why "cowards"?
Because in both Rugby Union and Rugby League players do not wear helmets and armour. Not even the ladies hide behind armour and helmets. Ladies are not more fearful than men, but male NFL players show the opposite can be true.
brah – rugby is VERY physical. Watch a game, you'll be surprised. Football transitioned to rugby tackling btw because it was more effective. I think he has a shot if he can get on top of plays.
He’s Welsh start learning, you’ve got a talented lad there
Hey guys- take five minutes and read up about guys before you launch into a programme👍👍👍
as an Englishman i'm so pleased you've misrepresented a Welshman as an Irishman
plus can you explain the new KO rules
He welsh not irish 🤬🤬
Typical American their Geography reaches as far as Ireland 😂 He is Welsh 🏴 Close though 108 miles away for those Americans 174km 🤷🏻♂️
