Another Senior Bowl standout for Ted.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.Comment

Love that choice. Spriggs!One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

BACKGROUND: A three-star tight end recruit out of high school, Spriggs received mostly MAC attention, but Indiana saw a future offensive lineman and offered him a scholarship. He earned the starting left tackle job as a true freshman in 2012, starting all 12 games and earning All-Big Ten Honorable Mention honors. Spriggs again started all 12 games as a sophomore in 2013, but missed a pair of games due to injury as a junior, starting 10 games at left tackle in 2014. He started all 13 games at left tackle as a senior in 2015, earning Second Team All-Big Ten and Third Team All-America honors. Spriggs accepted his invitation to the 2016 Senior Bowl.
STRENGTHS: Athletic frame and adequate arm length, extending well to meet rushers and come to balance at the point of attack…quickly sets up shop and gets into position…comfortable on his feet and stays balanced in space, showing good knee bend and overall flexibility…measured footwork and controlled movements to mirror in pass protection…understands body angles to wall off run lanes…intelligent with strong understanding of his responsibilities…quick eyes and prefers to use his hands to jolt and steer bodies in the run game…room to get stronger and continue to add bulk…has the desired competitive temperament for a lineman, fighting through the whistle…team captain with a blue collar mentality and goal-oriented mind-set…four-year starter at left tackle (47 career starts).
WEAKNESSES: Questionable core strength and needs to continue and add thickness to his frame…base power and technique require refinement…needs to keep a consistent center of gravity, popping upright and losing his anchor…inconsistent punch placement and needs to do a better job controlling the point of attack once engaged…inconsistent bender, causing him to struggle with counters and moving targets…needs to better drive through his hips as a run blocker, struggling to consistently unleash his power to finish…will lower his eye level and whiff on cut block attempts…had to be taken off the field on a stretcher due to a neck injury, missing two games (Oct. 2014).
SUMMARY: A four-year starter at left tackle in the Hoosiers’ up-tempo offense, Spriggs was recruited as a tight end and lineman, but stayed at offensive tackle once he arrived in Bloomington and blossomed into a NFL prospect (Indiana head coach Kevin Wilson on Spriggs: “His skill-set is as talented as any lineman I’ve coached.”). He weighed only 265 pounds as a senior in high school and has done a great job filling out his frame, but not all the way there yet – needs to get stronger and continue to develop his core strength. It’s tough to find negative plays on his film in pass protection due to his body control and awareness for the position, showing a strong understanding of his responsibilities to get the job done. Although he’s likely not ready to start in the NFL as a rookie, Spriggs has the overall ability and talent to develop into a swing tackle – second round prospect who might be drafted in the top-25 due to his athletic potential.Comment

He's okay... typically soft, no run blocking. But he has good feet, and will bulk up... so it's okay in the 2nd round. Didn't want him in the 1st round.Originally posted by pittstang5 View PostwistComment
