I'm happy with Biegel; good pick by Ted
It's starting to look like another fragile TT pick. Hopefully he's just getting it all done before the season gets here.
For posterity, and without putting any elbow grease into it...Quote:

I just don't see Beigel making plays... and can't fathom why anyone would think of him as an ILB.

No I didn't like Borland... he only played one year and had crazy talent all around him, so you can't extrapolate that out. Hell, if you threw Biegel out there with that much talent, I'm sure he'd look halfway competent too.Quote:

Don't forget Ted also tends to like the soft, frail types.Quote:

Is Beigel another Ricky Elmore? Lesser heralded teammate of an OLB who went higher with many arguing they had just as much success considering the circumstances...Quote:

Assuming you watched and broke down Borland's play in his first year....you've made my point for me
And for the record. Your pick at 4.1 was?Quote:

I get that, but I bet one of our rookie RB's outperforms Perine. I just don't like that style of a back.
no way. he'll be their starting rb i bet. one of our rookies (williams) won't get that many carries.Quote:
