Josh Simmons is another guy we might be able to get in the 3rd or 4th that if for injury might have been the top tackle selected.  Simmons had the knee injury so that could possibly be a steal in the draft with the injury red flag.

What have you thought of McLaughlin and Jackson in the past 2 playoff games?

The Ohio St and Ten game was the only playoff game i missed lol, so I cant give my thoughts on it.  I will be watching tomorrow night though against a good Texas DT group with Alfred Collins, one of the best run defenders in college.

I will make it a priority to keep an eye on him, Donovan Jackson, Banks, and Majors. I want to see who looks better out of McLauglin and Majors when it matters most. Jake Slaughter is staying with Florida for another year so he will be off the table. If we dont get a center in the draft this year Slaughter next year will be one of my top guys
