Andre Smith..Would You Take Him At 13?

[That Guy]

everyone step in line to draft the next ryan leaf... or robert gallery (though gallery showed much better pre-draft).

If he's bombing that badly and has no heart, that'd be a great way to waste a 1st round pick.

If he's still there, I'd trade the pick to a loser that likes making bad decisions (thanks detroit!) and use the extra impulse value of the selection to get better picks.

- that way you can get something out of his fall without the bust risk.

I don't feel like being less prepared for the combine than he arguably should have been makes him a worse prospect -- I just think Oher is the third best OT in the draft (after Smith and Monroe).

I don't see the bust risk though (admittedly, I didn't see it with Gallery either). He's a three year starter who has shown questionable off-field decision making, but has no physical defects, durability concerns, or questions about his ability.

For me, it's just that I don't know how well his college-dominant skill set will translate. I feel like it might force him across the way or inside. But if I'm the Redskins, that's a small price to pay at No. 13 if he's say, the next Leonard Davis.

Lacks maturity, Huge ? after getting suspended from bowl game and waiting till after combine had started to cancel due to lame excuse. Throwing big money to a kid is not a good investment.
