He did fumble a lot last year but some of this could be attributable to the neck injury he had which affected the way he could grip the ball. I think he only lost a couple of fumbles his rookie year. He's a high risk-high reward player similar to Brandon Banks. Slaton can take it to the house anytime he gets his hands on the ball. I think a change of scenery could benefit him too.
Guess I am biased though and like this guy since my Terps dropped the ball when they withdrew his scholarship before he went to WVU...
