No. I am not sure if he fits our scheme though. I heard he is more of a nose tackle type of a player.

Yeah you're probably right.

There sure a lot of good OL available though Scheuning, Nicks, Young, Justice, Radovich.

Yes. I was not asking in the sense of "If they're so great, somebody would have picked them" but rather "Does someone have a clue as to why they are dropping?"

Oh. I am guessing that teams are drafting on need right now, and if you notice there haven't been to many Linebackers, or safeties drafted lately so that could be a big reason.

Maybe we will draft a kicker or a punter next. I know that will really piss some people off around here.

Alright, look, clearly we're jinxed. From now on lets not say things that we want, it's clearly working in reverse. I'm going to try a little reverse psychology here.

Gee, I surely would hate it if this team was maybe add some more depth on the offensive line, or add a pass rushing DE or a good defensive tackle. That's exactly what we don't need, wink wink.

Yea, we definately dont need a certain DE from a certain Hampton U. Or even a LB From Maryland would be the worst case options

[Ruhskins]

I'd say Robertson or Dixon...

[CPAlltheWay012]

Omg if Pittsburgh doesn't take Josh Barrett we need to grab him

[Hail2theskins]

here we go...

[Ruhskins]

And we're on the clock...
