1. Justin Blalock - After thinking about the depth of the OLB and what we've just done, I saw Blalock or a 1st round CB as the only choice in the first. Blalock gives us a road grader with agility, brains, and the all important character. 2. Brian Robinson - Honestly, I hated two Longhorns back to back in the first two rounds, but Robinson is a kickass athlete with the perfect size and skillset to compliment BT as an OLB. 2B. Mike Walker - The drafts fastest rising WR in a draft loaded with them. He's been drawing comparisons to Andre Johnson because of his size (6'2 200+), speed (4.35), excellent leaping ability and hands. He's a guy who works hard, and was basically the only target for his crappy QB at UCF to throw to. 3. Eric Wright/Josh Wilson - Wright is rising, and may not be there in the third. Wilson on the other hand just might be there. He's fast, covers well (though doesn't INT), plays the run well, and plays much bigger than he is (5'9 189). Comments?
Tough to see another o lineman in round 1 again. I think they will try and improve the interior of the d line or possibily the secondary. Greg Olsen may also be considered.
I love the picks (at I said in Wolfe Tone's draft, which is almost identical as far as the players going go). I don't know nearly as much about Robinson as I probably should, but getting an OLB to compliment Thomas from the other side, whether it be Woodley, Robinson, Abiamiri, Moses, whoever should be at least one of our picks there. This draft's so deep in 3-4 OLB talent that choosing one there would probably be someone who would be a late first-early second rounder in any other draft.
Yea, I saw his draft right after I wrote mine and I noticed similarties. I wanted Francis, but I figured someone like Baraka Atkins, Kareem Brown (da U!!) or Jay Alford would be available on the second day. This draft is loaded with OLBs and tweener DT/DEs that fit the 3-4 as ends. Honestly, I'd rather we traded down and drafted Aaron Sears as our RG/T guy. He's a Shawn Andrews clone who dominated at a high profile program in the SEC.
