Owen Marecic, FB/LB, Stanford

[JWarren14]

We all know how much Smithiak loves versatile, smart, character guys. This guy seems to fit the mold.

I am not sure where he is projected to go, but I think it would be worth taking a late round pick on this guy.

Vonta played LB in college before moving to FB. This kid is playing both right now. He looks to be a little more athletic than Vonta, but maybe doesn't bring the pain as well as the Hammer.

What do you guys think? We have Casey, but if OD leaves he needs to focus on being a TE more than all the other position he can fill in at.

I had him as my #1 FB before the season started. And I didn't even know about the LB thing.

Cool, he scored an offensive and defensive TD against Notre Dame.

In addition to liking versatile players, Smithiak also like special teams guys... I could see taking this guy late round for sure.

Stanford Bio:

Enters the season atop the depth chart at both fullback and middle linebacker...saw the majority of his reps during the spring at linebacker...earned time at middle linebacker last season in goal line and short-yardage situations...three-time Pac-10 honorable mention selection as a fullback...has made huge contributions to Stanford's running game over the last three seasons as one of the best blocking fullbacks in the nation...tough, hard-nosed competitor has gained ultimate respect from his teammates and coaches due to his unmatched work ethic and attitude...quietly goes about his business without fanfare.

Blocked for Toby i'm guessing, although Toby did a lot of work by himself.

Interesting prospect for sure.
