6.8 352 lbs 4.96 40 and 33 in vertical
2 sacks given up in 502 snaps!
Has to be a tackle though, right?
@@florida1289I’m sure. I don’t see him being a guard but what do I really know. He def looks like a Tackle.
@@florida1289 Well, he's definitely not the guy to replace Ragnow if he retires, lmao. Goff would be hitting him in the back of the head with every throw.
Bro ran a sub 5 at 352?
I'm glad I watched his highlights. He is massive and can play as a tackle and a guard. Love the pick!
Seriously! He makes the other lineman look small!
That’s a big man, raw but steel will sharpen steel. I heard his downside of not facing elite comp. True, but he’ll have to line up opposite Hutch, McNeil, Houston, etc…
It is hilarious with how much BIGGER he was than anyone else. Heard about the buzz this guy was generating a few weeks ago and hoped we snagged him, and we did. Love it!!!
He looks like hes blocking high schoolers! This man is a building.
@@taylorsova2594 blocking high schoolers because he is effectively playing against them.
@@benisroodhe was on a college scholarship playing football. Canada produces some talent. The CFL isn’t bums.
Man amongst boys.
To be fair, they are Canadians that aren't good enough to play hockey, but son of a bitch he is big
He 🥞 on almost every play.
😂😂😂
This guy is a TANK
I love Brad and his thinking outside the box. This will be fun to watch!
Him and Big Skip as heavy run package on short yardage and goal line👍🏻
Him and Cody
He’s HUGE.
Let’s go Detroit there not ready for us!!🎉
Where?
@@phronze1 Their not ready for our creative spelling!
They're also not ready for this dude.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.... Great job scouting department!!!
I'd be looking at Mathieu Betts to make an impact.
Dayuum!!!! He is massive. I hope he becomes the Lions version of Trent Williams when its his time to shine.
He gets to learn behind Decker and Sewell and from the best OLine Coach in Football Hank Fraley
No disrespect to Trent but Sewell already better than Trent, and is only getting better
@@southviewarab IM talking about left TACKLE after Decker leaves
Decker always hurt plus getting older hope he can take over that spot him n Sewell will be unstoppable
@@southviewarab Not when it comes to run blocking.
BC all day baby... Love to see homebred players make it! Congratulations on getting drafted young man! BC will be rooting for you, Good luck
Looks like a great run blocker too. That’ll be great.
Let’s go Lions
Imagine this guy working along side Penei for a year in practices... there won't be a DE in the league that is gonna touch Goff!!! 😮
If he gets his hands on you then you are done. Put him in on the goal line unit.
I like watching him finish his plays. If he can work on his technique and continue to put in that effort he'll fit in well
I REALLY hope the announcers remember the movie Necessary Roughness and start calling him Manu Manu The Slender.
Plays past the whistle, yeah he’s gonna be alright here in Detroit 💪🏽
this dude is a tank. 👀
Came back here after searching about Manu.
Man, it's exciting hving a FO and coaches who has confidence to develop player. A 3rd for 4th is kinda expensive. But I'm glad mr Holmes pulled the trigger.
Good luck on your NFL journey Manu.
Beastly.
Need some syrup to go with all those pancakes...
Hellllllllllyeah... Keep him healthy.. hes gonna squash grown men
He needs to get lighter and quicker which shouldn't be too much of a problem. Give him a year in the program and he may be one of the steals of the draft
He has been lighter, averaging 30 pts in hs basketball.
Faster? He had a better combine 40 yd dash than penei did. Sub 5 seconds for being 350 lbs is QUICK. If he lost 5% body fat he wpuld be dangerous.
Manucake is about to be a real thing in Detroit.
BEAST.
Shout out to the lioms for actually putting together rookie highlight films i have a a few coworkers whose teams i try to stay in the loop and if everyteam didnsomething like thisnit would he way easier , go lions!
Run behind him every play
He'll be catching passes year one.
Dude is putting people in the ground on those run plays.
Putting the pieces together.
We building the big bad boys in blue for real.
Puttin the Usports on the map. We like to see it from the big guy
A Pitt Meadows boy ayyyyy, from a local perspective, Pitt Meadows is a small town vibe on the Outskirts of Vancouver, sandwiched between Maple Ridge and Coquitlam, people with money ain't choosing to live there, but it's filled to the brim with our most important people, the trades, love to see a kid from a hard working blue collar family make it big time, plus as far as I know scouts never really looked much at the athletic freaks coming outta Vancouver, I guess Bedard just got some respect on the world stage for the young BC athletes, it's been too long since we've had a Steve Nash level superstar
Just imposes his will on any defender in his path!!!! Welcome to Detroit young man!!! You are gonna be a part of history
Goff can have a lemonade before he passes the ball with this dude on the O-line.
Sehr guter Pick❤
Jeez this guy is gonna be a stud .
The Brodric Martin pick of this draft.
.......yeah......that pick is still a question mark. Not saying it's a bad pick just saying it's a question mark
Do you just copy and paste that sh!t on every Lions site?
@@Lionize728 Tf are you talking about I havent posted this literally anywhere else and havent seen anyone else post it either. You on drugs hallucinating
He is huge
Pancakes anyone?
Call him IHOP because all he's gonna serve up in Detroit is 🥞
put him in as eligible receiver, throw the ball very high, beat the Cowgirls next year in the playoffs with that play
btw, Manu is more Tongan than Canadian as he has live most of his life in Tonga.
He came to Canada at 11 and he is 23, that must be progressive math.
@@jethro1963 is this Jethro Boden? Lol you think your Canadian when you step off the Plane?? Lol
@@bipolarpunt5721 Bipolar sounds like the right name I didn't understand a word you said.
@@jethro1963your like Jethro Boden, about as bright as a 25w light bulb
@@bipolarpunt5721 Well I can do simple math which apparently you can't
T-Bird stud! UBC on da map!
When you are ten inches taller and outweigh every opponent by at least 100 pounds you should dominate. I’ll be a believer when I see Hutch hit him with a bull rush and Manu doesn’t end up on his back.
Been following this one all year at UBC in Canada, this is a huge steal, runs a 4.9 at 6’8 352, has manhandled guys who have already played in cfl completion, will be a dog
Once he fine tunes his footwork and hip speed, he’s gonna be a monster
I need to see this guy do some work in Jumbo Packages, I want to see him catch passes so bad. Good luck tackling this man once he starts moving.
Our run game gonna be a problem for every team
Sheesh 😮
All I can think of is the movie THE BLINDSIDE
Big Bear!
Big Lion!
I like what I see but I hope he doesn't hurt himself or anyone else on our team trying to pancake someone every play.
Tbh looks like Penei Sewell college highlights …. Big dude noticeably throwing d linemen around, driving them into the ground …
NFC North DE's just solied themselves. Best of luck to you all.
Play at :40 is why Brad picked him 😂
Another HOG on the front line.I see where this game plan is going in 2024.
Watch all the haters look stupid when we got another rock on the left side
Ok, 4th and goal on the 4 yard line, just put this guy out there and run behind him as he plows through 3 defenders, touch down Detroit Lions (Dan Dickerson call)!
Is he massive, or is he blocking tiny people? Wow, good pick.
It looks like he’s playing against high schoolers 😭😭
Im in Canada, that University, those players will be the top 4% of HS Players.
Pancake central 😂 dude tall! Go lions
vote jared goff with sleeves
Penei RT and Gio LT run all day
Correction* Penei at LT and Manu at RT.
Who the f started the saying low man wins because everyone compared to him is lowman
Hope refs don’t call holding on those fall downs
Dude is going to get illegal down field blocking for pancaking his man 10 yds back before the ball is thrown
He's massive, but he looks like a high schooler out there with the way he moves.
The dude is athletic as hell what are you talking about?
@@Lionize728 He looks RAW. No refinement to his game. He has a lot of work to do. I'm guessing he's going to get eaten alive in his first year.
He’s got moves like the Great Khali
@@Lionize728 He is Athletic, 30 pt average in HS basketball and 33.5 vertical at 350 lbs.
I'm six foot 300 pounds, I would NOT want to be lined up across this monster!!
LETS EARN THAT STARTING POSITION NEXT, MAKING IT TO THE LEAGUE IS ONE THING, STAYING IN THE LEAGUE IS THE REAL CHALLENGE BABY, GOTTA RECREATE THE BEST IN THE LEAGUE TO REALLY SUCCEED
His hand placement is terrible and he attaches and relies on his strength to win. Huge and good movement but he needs to improve balance and hands or he’ll be useless at the next level. Wanted Suamataia over Rakestraw so I still like the pick. Go lions!
keegan underrated and we needed a guard
Athletic & physical freak but MAJOR project. Might not even sniff the field until 26-27' season. I can see Taylor Decker getting franchised next yr to buy more time until Manu is ready at RT.
He is massive and fast. But I just don’t understand drafting him over any power 5 school OT. How much talent is he really facing in British Columbia Canada.
Also there is no PFF grade so how can you measure blocking? You can’t.
I understand taking him 7th round or I drafted.
Anybody who practices against hutch is gonna get better. 😂
Looks like Aiden Hutchinson on offense🤣
First of all, I like the player. He's a giant, with great physique and high potential, but I don't understand why he had to be taken out so early, especially since he was undrafted according to consensus. In spite of this, we sacrificed an additional pick next year for the trade-up. So, I understand the need for an OT but taking him in the 6th or 7th round would have been more realistic, in my opinion. He's like Brodrick Martin last year. I like both picks, but they seem early to me. In any case, I trust in Holmes and the staff. Let's go Lions!!!
Thinking the same. Giving up a 3rd rounder next year? Makes little sense. If this guy ends up being a stud I'll eat my words, but this seems like a reach. Glad we have him, don't get me wrong, but seems like he would have been there in the 5th round or later.
He was generating MASSIVE BUZZ the last few weeks before the draft. Brad wasn't gonna risk it, and I love it!!! 💯
Guys with his size/measurables and his traits are unique and if he has the mental makeup the rest can be taught because he’s is an insane athlete at 6’8 350 lbs running under a 5 sec 40 and having a 33 inch vertical. Thats crazy.
🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁
It'll be interesting to see how he does against a defensive end over 200 pounds.
More like 250 in Canadian university...they line up a yard off the ball in Canada which is harder on the o line, footwork needs to be good...
Traded up for a guy who would’ve been there in round 5 or 6
Just like gibbs would have been there later too oh wait. .
@@thegamingdrew3105 dude this guy wasn’t even invited to the combine
this guy probably would have went undrafted. let's be real. lol
@zacgrasl4229 no one's ever been drafted from his school. But brad sees something
@@thegamingdrew3105 hey it’s a Brad Bot
We've returned to peak SOL, love it
SOL? Nah it's the BNL now
Crazy how small and unathletic these Candian players look compared to American football.
You’ve got some Canadian athletes who can keep up with the guys down south, but yeah overall there really is no comparison. American athletes are just bigger, faster and stronger
Is he playing against children???
Good against small players..NFL size players might eat him up
Bully ball against dudes half his size, and he's slow.
Any highlights of him playing someone other then preschoolers? 😂😂😂😂
gotta trust brad and his scouts. but this pick along with the safety are questionable.
Jahmyr Gibbs was "questionable", too, so I'm fine with that.
Reach. Why didn’t this kid play in the U.S. ? He’s competition looks weak-Texas high school kids, no offense Texas. Wasted pick, especially since there was plenty of big American kids who played at big time programs still on the board.
This pick sucks lol
True North 🇨🇦
