I was impressed watching him against Tennessee and Pitt. VT used him to block Ejuan Price because their OTs couldn't. Rogers could.

They spent money on 3 corners this offseason. Looks like they like what they have

may not be good news for Harlkey a guy who makes alot of money for a FB who doesn't play alot on offense. Especially if Rogers can replace his special teams value. On the other hand may just be bad news for the extremely raw Tammarick Hemmingway who may find himself on the practice squad.
You would think....With at leat 3 real TEs and a real FB, he looks like odd man out...
From CBS Sportsline:
PLAYER ANALYSIS
More of a H-back than FB with his motion blocking and receiving skills. High energy player on special teams. -- NFLDraftScout.com
So Rogers is not exactly a rock 'em, sock 'em-type FB . . . more of an H-back who is effective with screening blocks and can catch the rock out of the backfield.

As a Hokies fan I couldn't be happier with Sam!!!! So happy
Yeah, not sure why everyone thought CB was such a need headed into this draft? Without TruJo maybe, bu clearly he's not going anywhere.

Rams most likely keep 5 CBs and already have four good bets in Tru, Webster, Robey-Coleman, and Gaines. Also have Joyner and Johnson who can play in the slot.
You can never have enough corners. NRC and Joyner aren't really equipped to play outside the nickel position so let's hope no injuries happen.

Special teamer, good blocker. A football player there is always a place for hard working football players. McVay is looking for players to set an example at practice competing and playing hard. These players will help set that tone in and of itself this will be of great benefit. We have no doubt been troubled by undisciplined players and that begins in training.

That's not technically true. John Johnson was a three year starter at corner for Boston College before switching to safety. If the team decides his best position is corner, or we need someone at corner, he's there.
As a Hokie Hater (no offense) we really lucked out! If we are going to run him lead blocking for Gurley, look out!

You may be right, Harkey only had 111 snaps last season, ... way, way down from 2015. Gurley was getting slammed behind the los on a fairly consistent basis last year, ... with a big adjustment to our OL and an added FB, it will be interesting to see him hit the interior this time around. Rogers can also pass the ball, so we may have some trick plays added to the inventory. jmo.
