I really hope you mean Ben Mason. Here's some of his info: [www.profootballnetwork.com]


Position: Running Back
School: Michigan
Current Year: Senior
Height: 6’2 3/4″
Weight: 256 pounds
Wingspan: 79″
Arm: 32″
Hand: 9 3/8″

Ben Mason is a fullback, and he hasn’t proven himself to have enough creation ability outside of that role to earn increased volume. Having said that, Mason is excellent within his sphere, and it’s worth getting into with more depth.

Mason is 6-foot-3, 254 pounds, and plays like a heat-seeking missile as a run blocker. The Michigan running back has excellent straight-line explosiveness, which he uses to close gaps between himself and defenders. At the contact point, he’s extremely physical, and he relishes dominating his assignment.

Additionally, Mason’s all-out mentality extends past his work as a blocker. Mason is also a willing special teams player, and he has the experience as a linebacker to be a solid tackler.
<my note: Mason was recruited as a linebacker and converted to FB while at Michigan> Mason may not be a key contributor from a playmaking standpoint.

Nevertheless, his near-elite blocking ability gives him a lot of appeal in rushing-heavy offenses, and his special teams’ utility increases his attractiveness for NFL teams.
