I know he isn't the brightest guy, but if he would come with the recommendation of Urban Meyer, I think he's a distinct possibility. I don't think he lasts this long come April anyways.
I'm not sure about Siler. I actually like him as a player and think he fits the system, I just don't see it happening. I hope so though, he's one of about my 5 choices that I think really fit for our system.

In watching Nelson play, heck even watch his highlights, he is a very poor tackler. He hits pretty solid, and lowers his shoulder alot, but hits like that are not going to do him any good in the nfl. He will get run over and run over again and again and again. I would much rather have Michael Griffin (who can play SS, FS, and CB or Brandon Meriweather.
As far as recommendations from Urban Meyer. No thanx. It's these college coaches jobs to get their players drafted. Why would we listen to any of them....Charlie included?
