saw all his games and this kid has heart and a fire in his belly, and he will hit you.

It's called getting "Spaighted". Opposing players will find out next year, Riley better pick it up or he will be replaced by Spaight.

Eff Riley. He better be replaced by someone. He sucks. I forgot how horrible he was until you posted that.

VT in the NFL: The 2015 NFL Draft Stock of Kyshoen Jarrett (http://fightinggobbler.com/2015/01/16/hokies-nfl-2015-nfl-draft-stock-kyshoen-jarrett/)

Reminds me of Reed Doughty. If we have to rely on Kyshoen Jarrett as a starter then we're probably in bad shape, as was the case when Doughty was forced into duty. But try as they might the coaches couldn't find someone to unseat Doughty on the roster. High character, high effort, strong contributor on special teams. You need those guys.

I don't like his chances at going the Kam Chancellor route but you just never know in the NFL. And if we've got a Reed Doughty on our hands then it was a successful 6th round pick.

That's exactly what I thought, Reed Doughty.

I think Jarrett is faster than Reed , He returned punts at VT . I think he had a 94 yd return for TD . I know he isn't a 4.4 guy , but hopefully he can compete and push the other young guys.

Reed isnt even close to the hitter Jarrett is and Jarrett also got his hands on more balls in passes defensed and ints stats. That could be just scheme at Tech.

If you look at Combine drills, Jarrett lead the DB in Bench press reps and 3 cone drill.

He is faster in space and stronger than Reed. The thing killing Jarrett is his size...5-10

I wouldn't be surprised if Spaight unseats Riley, the more I read about him the more I like him.

Bret Bielema on Martrell Spaight: 'incredibly intelligent' - Washington Redskins Blog - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/blog/washington-redskins/post/_/id/17243/bret-bielema-on-martrell-spaight-incredibly-intelligent)

And that story meshes with one Bielema heard from Spaight's coaches at Coffeyville Community College. An ankle injury prevented him from playing one week, but the coaches didn't trust him to not dress and be tempted to enter the game. So they took his gear out of his locker, forcing him to watch in street clothes. Later that night, as coaches reviewed film, they heard a noise on the practice field. It was Spaight, in full uniform, going through a three-hour workout.
I love this draft.......
Good article SF!

He ran 4.57 at the Combine.

He ran 4.57 at the Combine.
Yup, and followed it up with a 4.49 at his pro-day.

Kysheon fits a Reed Doughty role in that he's a back-up S and a core special teams player...but as far as physique and playing style? Completely different.
