Seriously, so true. Where was all this info leading up to the Draft? We were on the Draft forum analyzing hundreds of players and DW
was one of the top players most all wanted especially if he fell to the 2nd Round. We heard something about a mental question about a
week leading up to the Draft and never heard anything about bad knees...
If I would of heard about any injury questions with him he would of fell down my board big time just like he did. Same with you I am
sure OSUfan. Kincaid was the one TE I did not want because of his questionable back and his questionable blocking.

They may have thought they could pick up another 6th round pick for a punter, move down a few spots, and still get DW. Pittsburgh picking him up may have surprised them, since they didn't seem to be in he market for a TE after having used a high pick on one last year. Or, maybe they had a couple of players with about the same grade, including DW, and decided to trade down, pick up the 6th, and take the one who was left at their pick.
Well, we passed on him 3 times and lots had DW going in the 1st Round...
Plus, we seem to love the guys we got, I sure do. Myles Murphy, DJ Turner and Jordan Battle could be studs down the road.
It did surprise me with the stealers grabbing DW, maybe we would of picked him if they did not, maybe we wouldn't, I have no idea.
We seem to value Defense and WR's much more than TE's. Even the UDFA we got at TE I know nothing about and we still haven't
brought back Mitch Wilcox (hope we do).
