Or maybe they'll take another rb.

there's probably three coaches in the league that have faith in their kicker and wouldn't spend a late pick on a promising college kid

What's taking so long?

They will go defense. The value is there now.

No we didn't! More offense! Haha

Ryan O'Callaghan, OT, Cal

A late pick, I agree. But I wonder why the Patriots felt the need to go for one in round four. We obviously have a need. Is there anyone else who is in a similar position?

well there's value there....projected third round....but didn't see it coming again

Handel · 04-30-2006, 12:04 PM

Good pick. A sleeper.

Handel · 04-30-2006, 12:06 PM

Has great size and a massive frame...Extremely strong player who can be dominant...Outstanding run blocker...Tough and physical with a nasty demeanor on the field...Smart with great instincts...Has good balance and can anchor...Once he locks on it is over...A hard worker and team leader with top intangibles...Has a lot of experience and has led the way for some prolific Pac-10 offensive attacks.

BB/SP really want to improve rushing.
