    Shaqueem Griffin, 6-1 223# LB from UCF just ran 4.38 40 yard dash. Also 20 reps with 225# bench press. All with a congenital birth defect leaving him without a distal left forearm and hand.

    Damn. Just damn.

    Not that it matter but he had a hand but had incredible amounts of pain t to that condition and it was amputated. Incredible story

    I'm sure someone will take a chance on him, but in the NFL I'm sure having only one hand to grasp a jersey/interception/whatever is going to be an issue in the minds of GM's. That said, I hope he proves them all wrong.

    Somehow this will be seen as less of an obstacle than if he were a gay pass rusher with no NFL ability.

    He WILL make the other 31 teams pay. Best overall football player in the draft regardless of how many hands he has. Saw at least 6 games he played in this year (live in FL now) and he was always making plays all over the damn field.

    It's hard to imagine him being a 3 down LB. You kind of need two hands in coverage.
