damn I am excited Bulaga!!!!Originally posted by pbmaxBut by draft week, everyone had smoked out Chilly's screen.Originally posted by superfanChilly loves the smokescreen (Harvin, 2009). I saw something about "Vikes will not take a QB in first round" creeping along the bottom of the screen earlier tonight. Similar situation this year?Originally posted by RastakLooks like Clausen might be there at 30.
Ted talking. Liked him, got info from Ferentz (coaches that have worked with him) and feedback was good. He will be exclusively at tackle, not guard. Coaches will decide L versus R.
Not overly concerned about trouble with speed. Iowa zone experience not a factor. Very little debate over pick.
Like his attitude, finisher, in love with football. Good Packer experience with Iowa players, and other Iowa lineman, not just the heralded ones, have played well in the NFL.Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

Thanks, PBMax.

Cards take Dan Williams....
Analysis
Pass rush: Relies on good to very good power as a bull rusher to collapse the pocket. Uses a swim move effectively, but lacks the burst and lateral agility to be a consistent factor in the pass rush. Works hard, but has only phone booth quickness. Requires an open lane to close. Alert defender that gets his hands up in the passing lanes.
Run defense: Greatest asset to the defense due to his build, strength and ability to locate the football. Good burst off the snap to explode into the offensive lineman. Tough to move off the line of scrimmage, as he naturally sprawls his feet, keeps his pads low and has the upper-body strength to hold up even to double-teams. Strong hands and an effective swim move to disengage. Natural candidate to move to nose guard. Keeps his head up and finds the ball. Only phone booth quickness, but hustles laterally and even downfield in pursuit.
Explosion: Good initial burst off the snap. Good upper-body strength to shock his opponent and quickly separate. Needs a lane to gather momentum and provide a big hit, but can deliver a jarring blow when he gets one.
Strength: Arguably his best trait. Low center of gravity due to a thick, wide lower body which helps in the leverage battle up front. Good use of hands and good upper-body strength to stack and shed in the running game. Relies on his strength as a bull rusher to collapse the pocket from the interior. Slides off blocks to make the play at or near the line of scrimmage.
Tackling: Enough strength to slow and even pull down some runners with one arm as he remains engaged with the blocker. Brings his weight with him as a hitter, resulting in some big collisions. Provides enough pop that he doesn't have to wrap up to knock down most ballcarriers, but improved in doing so as a senior. Good vision to locate the ball and can redirect surprisingly well at his size. Hustles laterally and downfield to make the tackle from behind.
Intangibles: Re-dedicated himself after the hiring of Lane Kiffin. Was moved to the nose and his draft stock "skyrocketed" as a senior. Was characterized by Monte Kiffin as a "undrafted free agent" based on film before the 2009 season … Has struggled maintaining his weight in the past. Has been as heavy as 357 pounds and ballooned to over 340 during the off-season last year. Played at 320-325 this season … Majored in legal studies and has aspirations to be a lawyer after his football career is over.

Ted is in a great mood. Likes Schneider's picks for Seattle and has talked to him. Not concerned with Denver jumping up in front of them. Admits people do not tell the truth even if they spent all tomorrow morning on the phone.
Ted is risking a fine by saying he preferred the old schedule, 3 rounds on Sat, 4 on Sun. Having a chuckle at himself with nothing to do tomorrow. Thinks we might see more activity tomorrow than usual for round 2, possibly including vet players being moved.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

Ted said he will be at tackle. Coaches will decide which side to concentrate on. But he will get time at Left.Originally posted by GunakorBulaga is a tackle. But I agree, he'll probably be playing guard this season until Cliffy or Tausch get injured.Originally posted by rbalohaBulaga is a guard. Bye Bye Colledge.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
