Leary and Lang would both have been great additions at Guard for us.
Preaching to the choir on drafting. I've posted articles from the 1990's by John Clayton talking about how it is a bad strategy to have your coaches as major scouts...as they can't scout during the season and have to rely on workouts. As an aside, how many offensive lineman have we drafted where we tout their bench press? Westerman, Bodine, any others? Billings on defense. It's because we scout workouts!
Agreed.
Granted, I think you could have kept Zeitler for closer to the 10 mark if we were a smartly ran team who wanted to keep him. Cut Pacman, let one of your 2 other benched first round corners play.
