re: RMD- Vote on 107

Thanks Dan. Hey, while you're at it, can you tell ivii to quit f'n with my picks, please?

TIA

Fixed

well, I was going to take Neal, but ivii2 messed me up again. So, I'll take Wayne Dorsey DE, he's a former basketball guy thats 6'8 and fills a huge need according to Nutt. He was the top rated juco player in the nation according to scout, who typically does better at evaluating juco's. I thought he may fall to the next round, which is why I wanted Neal now, but with my luck of late I figured I need to get the best available player. Anyone know something I don't as to why a 1st round talent was allowed to fall this far?

Oh well...crap....gambled & lost.

I almost pulled the trigger on him the last two rds.

I'm weary of the JUCO guys because they only have two years to play and may bust or fail to crack the line up and sometimes they fail to qualify.
Prep kids are a little less risky because you think they will qualify eventually (DeAngelo Benton), but qualifying is still a risk. I took D. Long from a prep school who is a real talent, but I am worried about him getting into school.

I feel your pain, after losing out on 3-4 guys by thinking they would continue to get overlooked, I decided not to take a chance this time. Fyi, I will be running a 4-3, so I have Potoae as a DT for me and not a DE for the spreadsheet

thanks

yeah I guess that does ease it a bit

Just make it. It's fine

With the 231st pick in the Tiger Droppings Recruiting Mock Draft, OBUDan selects:

Dakota Royer, OLB:



Honestly, there's not too much I don't love about this kid. Just turn on his filmand you'll be impressed. I've been searching for another pass rusher to play opposite Adrian Hubbard as an OLB in my defense. At 6'3, 220, Royer has a more than adequate frame. At Penn State, he'll likely be a 4-3 DE, so he's going to bulk up to around 265ish. But if you watch his tape, he moves very well. In fact, he plays both ways in HS, TE/DE. The main thing I love about him is that he's just a football player. In fact, the best description I've seen is from ESPN who said he has a real "Pennsylvania" blue collar feel to him. Much like my earlier pick of Christian Bryant, this kid just knows and loves the game. On his tape he shows ability as a speed rusher, but he's also a good tackler and plays pretty well in space for a guy starting out in a 3-point stance. With a 4.61 40 he'll have plenty of speed coming off the edge and the 4.19 shuttle time shows he's got great short area burst as well. He brings a real toughness to the defense. He registered 86 tackles and 13 sacks as a junior. At the risk of falling prey to the cliche I have to say it.. he's got a high motor, and I love it. Anyways, do yourself a favor and check out that tape. How he's not in the Rivals 200 is beyond me.
