We got Jake Grove so no way we draft him. No chance what so ever

Never say never, but you're right. We've addressed the interior line by signing two guys in free agency.

Tanking is like taking a Greyhound bus cross-country. Sure, it may eventually get you where you want to go, but it’s messy and unpleasant and uncomfortable, it stinks, the entire time you’ll be wishing you weren’t there, and not everybody along for the ride is going to make it to the end. - Quote stolen from Deadspin

I'd rather have a pass rusher in round 1. That area of our defense was deficient last year, and I haven't seen us do anything to address it in FA.

God talk about overkill.

Come on... the Grove signing makes this a pointless discussion IMO.

I can't see us drafting a Center after we just signed Grove, especially as we could move Satele back to Center if Grove continues to get injured.

We just signed Grove to a big contract. We are not gonna draft Alex Mack, unless he falls bad.

Hell, I still do. :shifty:

The only C I could see us even possibly drafting early would be Unger, only because he can and has played every position on the line very well. He'd be an ideal swing man, and he can also long snap. Tony S talks about liking guys who can fill multiple roles.
More likely is someone we could get later, such as Dallas Reynolds BYU in the 7th. He has also started and done well at multiple line positions. He was All Conference at C as a senior after playing LT as a junior, where he allowed no sacks.

So, I guess you are still hoping we draft him huh? :wink2:
