    How in hell did he fall so low? He went from a late first-round to early second-round pick to not even picked in the first day? What caused him to slip this far, and do you think the Jets could still get him in the 4th round?

    its probably his weight. They were talking about him being too big and he should slim down, but his attitude is that hes playing great just the way he is, so why mess with it.

    His attitude is correct. His technique is fine, he engulfs lineman, and then knocks them over. He gets to the second level fine, he just struggles in space. But that's why he's a guard and not a tackle, so he doesn't have to block in space. He gets to the second level quick enough, and he usually has a head start because he knocks down defensive tackles with ease.

    Most of you are being tools about him. He's a great blocker, and a much better "risk" then Gabe Watson is.
