The Official 2010 NFL Draft Thread

[Scott Campbell]

Well the number of OL guys alone mean that a few have to get cut.

PFW: "Has a badly built, dumpy body, with narrow shoulders, fleshy midsection and stick legs."

that sounds like most of the guys on this board, rather than NFL player. (':P')

anyone know anything about newhouse?

i hate reading the actual scouting reports. they have so much bad shit to say

He's the new Nate Newton.

im down for a plumpy texas kid.. let's see what he can do or ship him out. TT had to like him for some reason.

first thing I read on Newhouse

"Likely won't be drafted or at most a 7th round pick. Production does not match talent. Pushed around easily, and does not do well against big defensive tackles or fast defensive tackles."

But there is an upside right?

Say he might be one of the most athletic guards in the draft...that's about it.

His backside is his upside

I don't like him outside, bad kick-step, narrow base in space, will lunge and get off balance on the outside.

But on the inside, there's a lot of promise. Good athlete. He's a "natural bender" and he plays with pretty good leverage. Fires off the ball quickly and with power, and he can create creases in the run game. He can anchor, but can't really redirect which is why he's probably strictly an OG prospect. Three year starter, lots of power, good enough athlete, adequate technician.

Wow, this is a shockingly high upside draft.

Bulaga was the most boring of the picks. After that, we've gotten some impressive athletes.

Neal, Burnett, Quarless, Newhouse. . . .Wow, we're fishing for stars, clearly.

I have not read that Neal or Newhouse are great athletes

Would agree that Burnett and Quarless fit that

Neal yes. Trgovac said it as well as Shaun Herock. And his numbers match that description. Newhouse, I have no idea.

yup, 330 pounds. thats a lot of big fat dumping ass to have to move out of the way

[rbaloha1]

NO . WHY. GET A OLB/CB... There is no way this guy makes the team...

tauch and Wells were 7th rounders, never know! Lights a (bigger) fire under Barbre/Giacomini~

what about lang and sitton? TT knows how to find the right guys during this part of the draft.

good bloodlines -- former cowboys rb robert newhouse. sounds intelligent.

thanks lurk... makes sense.

im down for a "clean house", let the best guys win jobs on the OL. time to work NOW. :drill sergeant:

[Patler]

I never complain about drafting an O-lineman, you need so many of them. Wolf used to say you have to draft at least one every year.

But someone will be gone, the numbers are getting up there. Just like Moll last year, Coston before that. That's a good thing, though.

I can't imagine a scenario in which both Giacomini and Barbre make the team, maybe neither one. You have limited chances to make an impact in pro sports.

what does sitton look like? what about bag of donuts? its not a beauty contest -- if it were bruce campbell wins hands down.

[RashanGary]

you can go to cbssports draft section and click prospect rankings. You can sort players based on position and then click on Vertical, 40, 10 yd split, etc. . .

Neal was one of the top athletes at his position. Not as athletic as Suh or Alualu, but very close to McCoy.

Newhouse was one of the top tested OL in the entire draft too.
