There is absolutely no reason to doubt MRs ability to play NFL ball. He has battled head-to-toe with some of the best college talent and won. That same talent is moving on to the NFL and so can Rodriguez.
He's something special.
His work ethic alone coupled with his wrestling skills gives him a balance and power that guys bigger and stronger guys can't do. Wrestlers are superior pound per pound.
I just hope he goes to a team that I can watch his growth. Like Dallas or Denver.
I know there are rules, but do we really want to follow them now?

One of my favorite players of all time.
One of the most unbelievable sure handled tacklers I've ever seen!
The dude is like a anaconda if he touches you.

Just wish he was a couple inches taller and could carry 10 to 20 pounds more.....but his speed gives him a chance. He could possibly move back to safety in the NFL.
