No doubt. But he doesn't fit the BCS model, right? Too short, only 6' 1-2" tall. They want 6'3" at Minnesota as a bare minimum, and hopefully taller. If you listen to any Goopher game on the radio, they frequently mention Amaefula and how well he plays, "despite being too short to play DE". Amaefula is 6'2" and is arguably their best DL after Hageman.

That whole height requirement crap is ridiculous. Glad it works in our favor though because we've made a killing by taking kids who are just a little to short or a little to slow and turning them into very solid football players.

In a perfect world everyone is 6-5 like Jirik. But Emmanuel is only 6-3. Is an inch shorter that big of a deal? Besides Menards game is speed and quickness as a speed edge rusher. Worst case he will be a situational pass rusher which is very valuable

I think we can say John N. nailed this one. He is starting to do KE types of things.
