A guy that I really wanted us to draft in the 7th was Carson Steele from UCLA. I think he does both well and will become a weapon. Of course KC signed him as an UDFA and he played very good this preseason making their 53.
I truly think having one of these is the recipe for success in today's lighter, faster league. I remember an interview I saw with Mike Ditka, who said he wasn't fast enough to outrun anyone, so he would just wait till they caught up with him and knock the crap out of them. I realize A-Trains don't grow on trees, but there has to be this type player out there and could just plow through todays defenses. Remember, Alstott did this in the days of the heavy linebackers.
