Clifton Geathers'

 

South Carolina DL Clifton Geathers' arms measured in at 36 3/4 inches at the Gamecocks' Pro Day. Geathers, who stood on his 4.96 forty from the Combine, also has whopping 11 1/8-inch hands -- bigger than Alabama man child Terrence Cody's

He has the family pedigree, his father was a 3rd round pick by Buffalo in 1981, his brother Robert Geathers plays for Cincinnati as a starting defensive end. His uncle Jumpy Geathers had a 13 year NFL career where he posted 62 sacks in total. So football runs through his blood. He also stands at an impressive 6'7 299 lb's

Dude should be able to swat a ball or two down at the line. He's long and tall. A couple blocked kicks here and there are real possibilities as well.

 

 

I agree on the kick blocks.

 

 

I have often thought that if I was building a team how tempting it would be to have a kick block specialist....a really tall, high jumper, and then coach the heck out of him on timing....study the opposing kicker and get a feel for when his kicked ball reaches the LOS...Put him out there with the least equipment allowed in both quantity and size allowed.....for him it's all about jumping.

 

It wouldn't take but 3-4 blocked kicks to justify the spot. You could also count missed kicks that may have been altered....kicker trying to get the ball higher or adding a little more hook.

 

 

Surely there are a few 6'8" leapers out there who for whatever reason didn't have what it takes for the NBA.
