Every team passed on Humphrey, and all but two passed on him twice. 62 players were taken ahead of Humphrey, including 12 OL's. Hell, Green Bay took a center with the pick immediately preceding Creed. Scouting isn't as easy as it seems. Hindsight is always 20/20. And I doubt seriously that a former guy has more credibility with the owner than our current coaches.
But if new eyes would help usage better talent on the O line or anywhere else, I'm all for it.
Bob Stoops told me freshman Creed Humphrey ( redshirting at the time which was stupid even though the Sooners had a senior veteran starting) was the best run blocker on the team. That was with the OL that won the Joe Moore award and produced 4 NFL starters. Centers don’t go high but a lot missed on him.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
