That's actually very smart. They have tons of talent that won't get a sniff of playing time due to Knowshown Moreno and the new staff. Guys like Torain, Young, Aldridge, Hillis, etc.
i think hill is a Alex Gibbs pick. I see him being used on short yardage situations where we struggled last year. Now if we can some how still get Rashad Jennings then i have no problem with this pick although i like James Casey alot better especialy because we could use him in the wild cat.
That would be sweet if we could end up getting Rashad and Casey. Just don't tell the rest of the NFL about them.....shhhhhhhhh.
Random trivia: Connor Barwin played basketball two years. Kinda 6'4" power forward. Here's his stats: http://gobearcats.cstv.com/sports/m-baskbl/stats/2006-2007/plyr0004.html
Some of these teams are just going to be taking the BPA also...I honestly don't think Rashad will be there when we pick. That's why this TE coulda waited
... "and with the 145th pick, the Green Bay Packers select Rashad Jennings, running back from Liberty College..."
I'll be very dissapointed in this draft if this happens. so far the only picks im OKAY about is cushing barwin and caldwell and none of them im really crazy about.
Rice's Jarrett Dillard got picked up by the Jags! Congrats! Now let's see if your GB dreams come true here...
http://myespn.go.com/blogs/afcsouth/0-9-155/Caldwell-gives-Texans-options-on-offensive-line.html This came from Andre Caldwell, our 3rd round pick. Does it bother anyone that the reactions from our picks are pretty muted if not down right unenthusiastic? Cushing looked anything but thrilled when he walked up on stage with the Texans jersey and now Caldwell is saying beggars can't be choosers. What the hell, doesn't anyone want to be a Texan?
