    ..or as someone on here aptly named it..."Packer Leg".

        Pretty sure that was Red. Or he popularized it.
        Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

          Where do you think homeless people get their mad skills?

          They offer classes in how to best word your cardboard sign. How to project your voice.

          It began in 1930 as Oklahoma Hobo State U, but the word "hobo" became obsolete, so it was changed in 1975.

            NFL Draft Diamonds and our staff have been bringing our readers Prospect Interviews over the past 2 years and this year we mixed up the questions and added some fun questions for our readers. …




            There are some well-known names on both lists, such as Carson Wentz and Noah Spence. There are also a lot of names that would only be well-known to the most ardent draftnik, and some maybe not even then. Are there any players on the lists from schools near where you live, or players that you have started to take a look at?

            The Packers will likely be on the lookout for an OLB, maybe two. Here are three similar players who played college DE, but most certainly would project to 3-4 OLB because of speed and athleticism.

            Trevor Bates, DE/OLB, Maine...he has some athleticism and ball skills. I bet he gave some OT's fits.



            Kwame Bell, DE/OLB, Clarion, a D2 program.



            Wist already mentioned Matt Judon, DE/OLB from Grand Valley State, who is another D2 phenom, who actually attended the combine, so he's more well known than the two players listed above. How would you compare all three as prospects?

            I like Judon, but I don't know if he can switch to 3-4 OLB at 273 lbs. Maybe. I have to look at him more. I saw the size and chalked him up as a bad fit for GB. His 40 time is solid for an OLB, especially at his size. However, he tested poorly for a typical 3-4 OLB. As an OLB, his shuttle time would be close to the worst and his 3 cone would be worst among all OLBs. Then again, GB has been going jumbo at OLB (Peppers, Perry, Neal, and now Jones).

              Tyler Higbee, the talented TE from WKU, was arrested Saturday morning. I think we can remove him off the prospects list.

                He's now on the UDFA list.
                I can't run no more
                With that lawless crowd
                While the killers in high places
                Say their prayers out loud
                But they've summoned, they've summoned up
                A thundercloud

                    He just needs a fresh, new ad campaign.

                          Damn it! I had him on my dark horse list.

                                Remove him? Clearly you aren't paying attention - Guion, Quarless, Pennel, Goodison.
