Chip will fail miserably. Thoughts?

Spinoff. Would you support your NFL team taking 10 players from your college? Who eould they be? Keep in mind that they'll be cutting some key players.

Add up the total salary cap hit of all 10 combined.

None of the 10 are really that good. Who is the best one, Casey matthews?

It's pretty crazy how unimpressive these guys are.

Yeah I remember last year there was a report that several Oregon players made the final cut over much more polished and able players from other schools.

Kelly's quote was something like, "we just like having good football players." I'm starting to get the impression this guy thinks he is God's gift to football

Maybe he just knows those guys give effort and will not question his authority? I don't have a problem with it.

Can they succeed in the league is the question he should be asking. Not, do they give effort and listen to me. Jeff Maehl and Kenyon Barner are not going to help you win football games in the nfl no matter how much the respect chip

You say that until they start cutting the players you like you your team for some buddies with less talent.

Trading a productive RB for a LB gamble coming off an injury. I've been hearing "he's trying to budget cut"... Get real.

I wouldn't support it but Shazier, Hawk and Laurinaitis wouldn't be an awful linebacking group, then you add in Heyward, Bennett from this year, Hankins and I wouldn't mind the DL too much. That's 6

Mangold is an All pro at C, but Linsley was great as a rookie and is way younger so 1 of them.

Witner, Roby and Hyde will fill me out

Not too many all pros but I'm pretty sure all of them will be starting this upcoming year

Texans: The only one I really hate here is Hyde for Foster, but Foster has been injured a bit too much recently and all teams carry 2 rbs.

Only needing 9 in addition to Barrow, I would definitely be happy with Beckham, Landry, Hill, and Mett, probably even Blue. Whitworth to replace Franklin. Reid to replace Moore. Kyle Williams and Michael Brockers.

I would definitely take Matheiu and Peterson, but those other guys fill more pressing needs for the Broncos.

I think Long is probably the top player from Oregon in the league right now and he's not even in Philly.

So, would you take 10 guys from your college, not counting the best one?

I don't it's that cut and dry. He recruited, developed, and prepared all of these guys for the NFL. He knows their abilities and limitations better than anyone and they know his system. I highly doubt it just oh yeah I want my own guys for no other reason.

Oregon has 31 active NFL players, and 10 of them are on one team. That is mind-blowing.

10 from LSU would be rock solid. Additionally, you don't have to take starters. These are the LSU players still in the league as of the end of the season:

Lamin Barrow
Odell Beckham Jr.
Alfred Blue
Kadron Boone
Dwayne Bowe
Michael Brockers
Ron Brooks
Morris Claiborne
Ryan Clark
Glenn Dorsey
Lavar Edwards
Ego Ferguson
Jeremy Hill
Trindon Holliday
Tyson Jackson
Ricky Jean Francois
Anthony Johnson
Donnie Jones
Brandon LaFell
Jarvis Landry
Bennie Logan
Craig Loston
Tyrann Mathieu
Danny McCray
Zach Mettenberger
Barkevious Mingo
Kevin Minter
Sam Montgomery
Patrick Peterson
Rueben Randle
Eric Reid
Perry Riley Jr.
Russell Shepard
Tharold Simon
Trai Turner
Spencer Ware
Andrew Whitworth
Kyle Williams
Brad Wing
Al Woods
James Wright
