It seems that he's been falling lately due to his performance at the Senior Bowl. I think he'd be an excellent choice at #25 or possibly #37. I have read many mocks that have him going deep into the 2nd round. I've read good things about him and remember that he was a top prospect coming into the offseason. He can play OG or OT, which is exactly what we need. Any thoughts on Blalock anybody?
I'm not sure that he is dropping from poor performance. I think it was more the fact that he isn't being looked at as a long term RT prospect anymore. He can play spot duty, but the bulk of his time is going to have to come at Guard. This is fine, it's just that due to the undervaluing of the position he will not likely go in the first round. He should be available at our first second round pick, if not our second. I though Justice fell even further than that and I hope he ends up more like Jean-Gilles for our sake.
If he's there at 37, I'll be calling for him. He was somewhat recently considered a Top 10/15 pick right? Jean-Gilles probably dropped to the 4th because of his weight problems. I believe he's in the 360 ballpark.
ive been talking about him for a while. we could plug him in at either spot and hes been a solid player throughout college. i wouldnt even be that mad if we took him at 25 but if hes there at 37 id nab him.
I'm not sure that he was ever top 10/15 but you are certainly right that he held a first roudn grade for most of the year. I think he was generally predicted to go around the 20-25 range. Unfortunately, you have to be a once in a generation type of guard to be picked in the first round. I also agree though that he could fit in well with us.
