We reached for him because we needed an immediate starter at C. Now, in the long term, I think he will develop into a decent starter, but in the short term we would have been better off just starting Hopkins. That was one of those panic "the season is lost if we don't take a C in 1" picks and the scrub already on the roster was a better option. Price was banged up, but relatively minor injuries can set rookies way behind.
I would be ok with White because he is a first round talent and you have to allow a little bit of reach for weak areas of your roster, but Bush isn't a 1st round talent imo. I'm not paying Cadillac sticker prices for a Chevy Cruze and I'm not going anywhere near Bush at 11.
Well there goes your draft cred, Bush is easily a first round linebacker and wouldn’t surprise me if he goes top 10. 511 235 lbs , ran a 4.4 40 faster than most of our defensive backs n as fluid as hell , and his vertical of 40.5 inches was insane. What more do you want from physical Stand point. And he was their team leader and was also great in coverage posting a 79 passer rating against.
