Lmao TT fields a Super Bowl winner and fans still complain about the draft after even though it produced our best play maker on the team.

1 (31): Cameron Heyward, DE, Ohio State

2 (63): Marcus Gilbert, OT, Florida

3 (95): Curtis Brown, CB, Texas

4 (128): Cortez Allen, CB, The Citadel

5 (162): Chris Carter, OLB, Fresno State

6 (196): Keith Williams, OL, Nebraska

7 (232): Baron Batch, RB, Texas Tech

Lets just compare our draft to the Steelers who picked before us for shits and giggles.

IMO Green's problem was his vision or lack thereof.

Maybe vision, lack of burst after the cut would be my guess. RBs are always looked at as a position where a rookie can have immediate impact. The Pack didn't have much at RB and he didn't win the job outright which disappointed me. When he continued to not start, I was pretty sure he was not going to pan out by week 3 or 4.

McCarthy did not seem too confused about Ryan Grant and Brandon Jackson.

Even great GMs have crappy drafts all the time. Look at Ron Wolf in 1999 and 2001. Absolute garbage. And yet, 2000 was a spectacular year. Sometimes it seems completely arbitrary.

Woah did I hurt someone feelings?

^ All I was trying to say. If Sherrod doesn't get injured we come out of that draft with a starter at LT and a our top play maker which aint too bad for drafting at the end of each round.

Had nothing to do with his ACL injury, the guy just didn't have it. Look at his college tape and the holes he ran thru at Hawaii were unreal. Not only that but he went against weak competition pretty much each game.

The great running backs make those holes. Its not about the blocking, he was special.

I don't know about that...have you seen any of his Hawaii film? I remember looking at them wondering how you could scout a guy who was running through holes that were literally 2-3 yards wide. Travis Jervey would've lit it up in that offense!

We might have a starting LT. There is still nothing to go on that tells anyone if Sherrod can play in the NFL or not.

I agree, however, out of a spread those holes can appear on their own with less work by the back. They need to be less physical and less exact.

In the Badger game today, the freshman RB Clement (sp?) made a big run and Tauscher and Lucas both said the run was made by the back being patient early and leading defenders to his blockers and then accelerating at the proper time. Huge gain for a TD I believe.

Not saying Green did not do that, but in a spread you have less guys in the box to navigate and if they are pass rushing, those holes can appear earlier.

Green isn't shifty enough to make people miss on a regular basis and he almost always goes down on first contact. Not a great recipe for a RB.

[Pugger]

Green often appeared to be running toward the pile instead of trying to get around it. I'm sorry we don't get the Big 10 Network down here cuz I'm eager to see this freshman RB Clement.
