ESPN just did a real nice piece on him. Said he looked super motivated and was one of the standouts at the senior bowl.

I like our picks I think Hubbard will play in rotation and with the addition of Brown we may see Mike Johnson released. I think Malik could develop into a really solid LB going forward and Bates will start I think at some point if not this year then next.

So now I really want jones at 170 but I’m starting to think they are okay with the olineman they have in Redmond westerman hart fisher

Zeitler got overpaid by the Browns, he is like the highest paid Guard in the NFL now.

BTW, i think Westerman can be a very good RG for us anyways. Our new OL coach Pollack must like Fisher at RT.

Kevin Zeitler that’s him. Well I remember Whitworth left and no one stepped up to th plate and the line fell apart. The fans haven’t liked our starting C since whoever we had when I first watched in 05 retired.

He got a 1st Rd Center and a RB.

Really liking this pick. Sounds like he has crazy upside.

Rich Braham was the last good Center. Kyle Cook and Russell Bodine both sucked.

I wouldn't have problem if the Bengals took Luke Falk with their last 5th round pick.

Also the Ravens took Jordan Lasley. Could turn out to be a good WR in the NFL. He has to work on cutting down on his drops, though.

And a Pro-Bowl TE coming back.

(for a few games at least. maybe. possibly. hopefully.)

You know I'm seeing a common theme with our pics. From a psychology perspective they all seem motivated and try hard players. They seem to really love the game.

Yep, haven't had a good Center since Braham, thank God we got Billy Price and Cordy Glenn now.

Our O-line is much better going into this year. Especially with Frank Pollack as the new O-line coach.

Dare we go defense again?

Hill
Holland
Ejiofor
Moore
Reed
Blanding
Meeks

I wouldn't either to be honest but they also like quarterback Ferguson. I think the fans are going to see what their big board looks like from here on out.

True, Walton's story is just as inspiring as Shaq Griffin's honestly. That guy has had it tough.

I don’t know the back story. I’ll have to look into it

[George Cantstandya]

Luke Falk next?

[*psychdoctor*]

I guess the knock-on Tim settle was that his weight fluctuates and I think the Cincinnati Bengals are picking more athletes this year who have a high motor and great work ethics
