Jewel Hampton

[iahawks912]

Signed UFA deal with the 49ers. Good luck although I cant see him getting much or any pt with Gore, Jacobs, Hunter, James all in front of him.

He'll be a member of the practice squad if he chooses to be. There is no way he makes the roster with that group in front of him.

Had he stayed with Iowa I wonder if he would have left early?

That is almost best case scenario it might even be tough for him to make the practice squad.

I thought the James pick was a bit perplexing given their current depth chart and the move they made to add Jacobs...to add Hampton to that mix probably doesn't bode well for Jewel.

At least he has a degree to fall on when he gets waived...

Not injury prone.....lots of game reps.....stays out of trouble.....what more could you want.

I think Jewell would have been a great rb had he stayed healthy. Kid had bad luck 2 years in a row, 2 different acl's.

When he was running behind Greene there were flashes of greatness. He would have been drafted in the mid to upper rounds barring his injuries. Damn AIRBHG. Don't know that he would have been good enough to leave a year early but it was possible.

Niners could be an interesting team to watch, as far as running the ball anyways. They could have a serious POWER run game.......
