"Junior" mint?

The Seahawks have signed former Auburn SS Junior Rosegreen, further padding the depth at safety. I watched a lot of SEC football the last few seasons, and for my money this kid can play.

Here is a little write-up of Mr. Rosegreen:


Strengths


Toughness is the way to best describe Junior Rosegreen. He is a very talented tackler that hurts people when he hits them. Great aggressive player is always on the attack and does not miss many tackles. Rosegreen is a confident player with a lot of swagger and I like that about him. Will not back down from a challenge and is a fighter. Good looking athlete as well, strong and fast .

Weaknesses

His position might be of some question, he is listed as the starting cornerback this year but he played strong safety last year. I think with his tackling skills he should play strong safety and that would help the defense out having a strong safety that can actually cover as well. Might not have great speed to keep up with the fastest players around but he is a pretty solid overall athlete .

Summary

Love his intensity and ability to hit. Rosegreen is a big time tackler with a lot of skill and upside to his game. Should be a strong safety and I think he will be, doesn?t have great size but he is a play maker. If he plays cornerback and really succeeds there that could help his stock. Either way I think he is a very capable player and his toughness puts him over the top, should be picked the first day .

  3. SHONUFF hit it perfectly...both Junior Rosegreen and Jamaal Brimmer are good players...and one, if not both, should make the team...

    Rosegreen was previously invited to our camp, so i read up more on him, and immediately wanted him signed...guess the FO felt the same way...he could be a great backup S in the league...who knows, maybe more (doubtful with us having Clutch and the Hammer)
