Honestly how many Illinois games have you seen? He was forecast to be picked around 22 so it sounds like a decent pick.
No recap of wade's interview? wish you'd done one, as always a classic line Mastermind Wade on the merciless, "they say one year wonder. Why they didn't play them the year before that's what i'm wondering." " Love his hands, great arms. self motivated."
Pancakes says: When the Texans go to nickel defense, Brian Cushing and Mercilus playing behind Connor Barwin, Brooks Reed, J.J. Watt and Antonio Smith with five defensive backs giving thanks for a front six like that.
In what way does did Aldon Smith separate himself as a prospect from Mercilus? As prospects, they look almost identical on the day of their respective drafts. Only you would have to combine Smiths last 2 years. I don't expect Mercilus to match Smiths rookie year, but In Wade's 3-4 he very well COULD match it.
This guy better be great. We have had like one offensive 1st round pick in the past 9 years (Duane Brown). The rest of the draft better address the offense somehow.
A++ for this pick...Excellent motor on this kid...and serves as insurance in case Barwin leaves via free agency...surprised he dropped...This pick has wade written all over it... Kubiak is a lucky man
I wonder if theyre that excited because he got picked by the texans? Or just the fact that hes officially drafted?
