   He can be a mauler and he is a very good pass protector, very good at getting to the 2nd level as well for his size.  I thought he would test well but I was shocked with the numbers he put up at the combine and he did all the testing.  Usually players will skip certain testing when they feel they won't be good at it.  I love the ones that do all the testing and it just shows their competitiveness.  I think he would be the perfect player to fill in for Scherff though.

Thank you.  I rarely get stuck on a player's name. What I believe is we need a quality Tackle, Guard, NT and CB from this draft.  What their name is and where we actually draft them is less important to me.  After that it would be nice to have a 6'2" or better 200lb+ WR that runs 4.3 or 4.4. There are really plenty of them this year all the way to the 6th round.

The last thing you want to do is draft for a position.  You do that there is a high chance you are passing up better players.  If what ever position you want is at the top of your board than perfect but you want to draft for certain players not positions.  When you do that you end up with a Henderson and Chaisson, trying to replace Ramsey and Yawn and pass on guys like Wirfs, JJ, and Winfield
