I think Okoye is like Smith over there.

Amobi Okoye too.

I am definitely intrigued by this kid.

It seems to me that if Jerry wants him, and I have no idea that he does, he should be able to get him. He loves his project players (supposedly liked QB to WR convert Matt Jones, countless baseball players, and former college basketball player Jermey Parnell) and he is never afraid to pay top dollar for UDFA's (Ronald Leary).
