I couldn’t believe he was still on the board at this point. One of the most athletic tackles in the draft with fantastic film.
And if I hadn't traded up for Eich, this dude was my plan B. Love his tape. Just always scared to project that move from Right to Left T. His pro day numbers weren't great. Made me turn the tape back on and it was as good as I remembered it. His technique is good, build is prototypical. I love this kid. Thought about going B-2-B with Eich and Mayfield. But it's just too hard to picture running Braden Smith (on a contract year) out of town just yet.
Ha. How about that '84 supplemental draft tho?! Holy shit Clark was 2 inches taller than this guy?? I just remember him looking like a midget out there lol. Little fucker couldn't be covered tho.
The tape I love to go back and watch is vs OSU in 19. He was left all alone with Chase Young and gave up almost nothing the entire game
Okay, I will hit up Spicy. Seattle is definitely willing to trade back (have only 3 picks). Hit him up in the PM's
I often wonder what some of these guys that appeared to be invisible to DBs in that era would have been able to do in the present, where defensive backs can no longer brutalize them at the line or tear their head off in the open.
And how many more of them there would be. Guys that size hardly ever made it as far as the NFL for the reasons you give. It actually makes me respect Clark even more. The guy was a tough little bastard who played between the numbers, taking shots, way more than Art Monk. And the dude never missed a game it seemed, he was always out there. One of the more under rated WRs in league history Tim?
Cleveland would entertain the idea of trading S Grant Delpit for the right price....Looking for mid to late 2nd rd.
I feel very fortunate here. This was the pick I probably should have made if I didn't want Rousseau because I felt very Eagles GMy early round 2. Took him early 2nd with the 49ers in the GMO too. I think I'm higher on him than most and boy were OTs also getting slim pickings.
Are you around @chitown king ? You're on deck with Baltimore. Just Rams in front of you, which I'm repping. I'll hurry the hell up if I know you're here.
Not yet but it's time to stop hoping in case he isn't good when back from injury and there is talk of Lane Johnson considering retirement sooner than later. We just need good fresh blood regardless.
While we're waiting, does anyone want to offer for the Rams pick while I make sure I know who to take?
Has to be. He averaged over 1000 yards a season, over 7 TDs a season, almost 16 yards a reception every season and did it with Rypien, Schroeder and Humphries as his passers with the Skins.
