Yes but he was UDFA for a reason and that reason was multiple serious knee injuries. It never hurts to add another day 3 body to a competition for short yardage back with Hampton and Dixon.

HA! Similar skill sets already, he says. He might be the same size, but I think you're far off to think that a PS squad player has around the same skills as Frank at the moment.

if that's the case, I have a similar skill set to Patrick WIllis. Put me in coach!

LMJ looks like he has already gotten stronger than the preseason. The time he waited on the pine obviously was well used as he looks pretty strong. Can't wait to have Hunter back. Gore, Hunter and LMJ is one hell of RB/HB depth list.

Lamike is going to be a star once he gets about 1/2 a season's worth of playing time. Sprinkle him in next year just like we did with Hunter and I can already see he is going to blow it up. To be honest I would love to see those three backs split the carries equally to keep Gore fresh and extend his career as long as possible. When Gore retires (hopefully with a ring) that could be a scary combo with Lamike behind Hunter.

I hope LaMike gets a ton of work running routes out of the backfield, in the slot, and split out wide in the off season. Turning him into a dangerous receiving threat that LBs and Safeties can't cover would make this offense very difficult to defend and extend a lot of drives.

I don't care about the size small but small size is too good. If the LB and Dline can tackle him so hard. James will get hurt too easy his knee.. he was lost game at Seahawks last sunday night.. did u watch it? I already watch it..

After watching the game, props to the guy for good pass protection. He cleaned up a blitzer on several plays and on some key KAep runs.
Also, he is so compact he hides that run option real well. Its a dangerous play with Kaep, especially if Gore and James can keep having success in the middle.
Gire and LeMic, FTSB!
