Yeh, and the kid has no question marks and/or injury concerns. Better than Og, Fisher, and Hart combined,imo. Great pick, I actually wanted Haskins but in reality, this makes a lot more sense assuming coach thinks Dalton can lead us.

Maybe he'll crack his noggin "the steeler way" like another unnamed player did a few years ago..

This may not end well for Bush....lol. I'm loving this....

Trust me, no one loves them some Hart. What is the guy gonna say? "i can't stand that dude, he sucks!". Nah, he's going to talk positively about him in the hopes that he is confident and plays well if he's the only option you have to run out there.

It would be interesting if we come up and Mack Wilson is gone, do we double up on Offensive Line again?

I think that's now a very safe assumption about coach. This really helps to solidify the Oline with instantly fewer holes to fill.

Bradberry could have moved Price to Guard. Would have been nice.

Lap called Dillard because he thought Williams would be taken already. I believe his words were something along the lines of 'If Williams is there at 11, you sprint to the podium."

I did I haven’t been high on him and thought he should be a 20’s pick.

I would double down if Ford is there when we pick next.

I'm over Alexander. Just because Williams may have worked with him before the draft doesn't mean anything. It certainly doesn't diminish Williams as a player.

This kid won the award for the best lineman in the SEC. This was a great pick. Also, seems Zac knows how to work the draft.....Stoolers were sure we were taking Bush. Snookered Lap....kudos.

I’m surprised Taylor and Dillard still on the board
