no way jose

I think he has a shot.

LOL. I'm pretty sure there won't be a meltdown. Dobbs is a good player too! This is NT...tough extreme crowd. If he plays well, the "faith level" will be at an all-time high and if he blows, he'll get run out of town instantly.

respectfully disagree. I feel he has gotten to the nate davis status on the web zone where he will be forgiven all of his transgressions no matter how many times they occur. i agree that NT is a tough crowd but if a player is lucky to break through to the other side and join nate davis and bj daniels on the untouchable list they will always be worshiped
There is absolute no way Okoye is considered a NT in any situation... he's played the game for ONE YEAR lol. NT is the hardest position on the line in terms of technique, vision and leverage. They gotta diagnose the play while determining what side the double team is coming from within a split second or they get blown out of the play. Im rooting for the Brit like everyone else but the reality is it would be a huge win for him to even land on the PS... way too early to think he could back up multiple positions.

You may very well be right on this one. After all, it IS NT!
Have to admit I cannot wait to see what the kid has learned. Is he just butt ugly strong, or does he have some finesse, some moves. If so, this should be a show. If it is just brute strength, no technique...well, it will be disappointing. I don't see him being tutored another yr and not make a contribution...no matter how strong. What do I expect? I expect to be thoroughly entertained.

Everyone is talking about this guy playing different positions when he hasn't even played one position for an entire season... let's just wait and see. I hope he pans out and becomes a solid back up on the D line this year.

Also, have the coaches considered trying him out as back up (mascot)?

Yup. I see no plans intention to put him at NT tonight unless it is extreme garbage time against pop warners.
