I’m not surprised to be honest.  I thought that’s where he’d project, and they didn’t have much luck on that front in recruiting this year.  It’s a position of need and depth right now.  Hopefully, his skillset will translate there.

They got Kandron Boone and he’s a beast out of this years class. Sheppard is a great athlete but I agree he wasn’t a QB. I hope he’s a good as all his hype.

That’s pretty much all they used him for anyway. I think he is more dangerous as a WR/RB who can throw vs a QB who can run.

Should complement Randle well.  One signing and a few guys that have the potential to be there, given they are thinner at the position than they’ve been in recent years, would be less successful than they’d hoped.  Especially considering their offensive struggles of late.
