He actually reminds me of David Givens.

I haven't made up my mind at all. I'm very optimistic about these 3 guys as well as the rest of the draft class. Very optimistic. As a matter of fact, Hernandez was the 1 TE I really wanted us to draft, but I didn't think we would due to the fact that he's under 6'3" and has some "character" issues. But I'm extremely glad we got him. With Cunningham, I looked at some tape of his - similar to the one that's posted here - and concluded that he was a better fit as a 43 DE than a 34 OLB (that may have also been after I saw his 4.9 40 time). Obviously I defer to BB's evaluation as far superior to mine and I hope Cunningham succeeds. I think his success will be directly linked to the success of this draft as a whole due to this team's short and long term issues at OLB.

4 years ago, when Maroney was drafted, someone posted a video of him on this board and it was amazing! Perhaps you remember it - it was to Michael Buble's "feeling good". People were drooling over the video and then it came out that Shanahan predicted Maroney would become one of the best RBs in the NFL (if not the best). I wanted to post a link back to the video, but it's been removed from youtube for copyright violations. That is when I learned the hard way not to get overly excited about a college kid's highlight reel. I realize these videos are not just purely highlights, and I like watching them as much as the next guy. I'm just being a voice of reason here in the midst of proclamations that Hernandez is an all-pro and Spikes is ROY.

Clips would be much better if you could tell where each player was lined up before the snap. Watching Hernandez's clips are tough cause you don't know where he is until he catches the ball.....

Would be better if there was a cursor on him (like most highlight videos)

No argument with this. I have gotten excited over busts before, but have had my share of hits, which makes this fun for me.

Sorry to dissapoint you all, Spikes is tremendously overrated. Watch Spikes in the 09 SEC Championship. He got jocked the whole game.

Hernandez' playing style is entirely different than Wes Welker. He is more reminiscent of Antonio Gates.

Not that I'm aware of. He has a good deal of raw talent, but what makes him overrated in my opinion is his lack of drive and his thuggish antics. My opinion of him has never recovered form the eye gouging incident of early November.
