draft prospect: Eric Weddle S

[HarveyWallbangers]

looks to me like wolfe did put up maurice jones drew type of numbers, maybe even better

Interesting! I had read somewhere that he disappointed at the combine, but hadn't looked up the numbers to verify. I still don't like him all that much. He's 5'7 1/2" and 186 (the shortest and lightest guy at the combine). I'm not big on drafting a 3rd down back. MJD not withstanding, those guys don't usually turn into full-time starters. They usually turn into Leon Washington or Eric Metcalf. MJD is built like a brick shithouse (he goes 212 of muscle), so was Barry Sanders. Who knows... maybe he turns into another Warrick Dunn (he's built more like that than MJD). Plenty of guys have kicked butt at a school like Northern Illinois (Leshon Johnson), but those numbers don't mean all that much to me. He looked pretty good against Wisconsin, but I thought Brian Calhoun looked like a great player at the college level, and he didn't do anything his rookie year.

I don't like the name ... "Weddle." Pass.

Just think if his first name was "Ingle". Double Whammy.

How much you wanna bet he has a family member---an uncle or something---named "Wally"?

So true, or Willie or something.

You know damn sure his nickname is "Neddle"

Eric "the Neddle" Weddle

That sounds a little better I guess.

Willie ....

Wally and Willie Weddle could be twins!
