Cedric Ogbueih question. .

[chknwing]

starting a rookie mid season at LT.  What could possibly go wrong?  Oh that's right, just the fact that you would be tossing a rookie on cams blindside that has zero chemistry with the line and coming off an ACL injury. What ever it is that you are smoking, its time to quit.

He'll go in the second, but probably before we can get him. I'm not sure we want a "project" in the 1st round.

I will be honest, I know it's a very small sample size but I watched some Youtube vids of him today and im just not impressed, he plays soft and isn't that good in the run game. He's just not a "mauler". The only O lineman I would consider with the 1st would be Jake Fisher, dude is just an all out mauler. His play reminds me of what Kuechly would be like if he was a O lineman, dude is just a straight up football player

He probably would not be ready by week 6 because most of these guys need a year of developing lower body strength.  He would be over a year behind in that area.

 

That is why I like Peat.

That injury scares me for a first rounder. I'd pass, I value Cam a little more than most.

Interesting thread to read... can't say I learned much about anything though.  Sounds likes there isn't a general consesus about him here, among scouts, and probably among teams as well.  All I know is I'm worried about which OTs will be there in the first (probably no sure things), and that they'll all be gone by our second.  Because of that I think we either move up in the first, or more likely, in the second to grab an OT.

Consensus?  "You keep using that word.  I do not think it means what you think it means".

 

Was one of the SEC leaders in sacks allowed in 2014.

Has a lot of leverage and technique issues.  Not a lot of power, and is better at run blocking (stretch-type) than pass blocking.

We haven't done well when drafting injured prospects.  Id rather look elsewhere.  But , if G-Man takes him then that tells me all I need to know.

Perhaps my favorite movie of all time.  I think I have the entire script memorized.  My kids loved it, so I watched it about 80 times during a span of about 120 nights.

[Ace_Aladdin]

If I KNEW he would be a 10 year starter?  Obviously.  But there are no such guarantees.  He's not a perfect prospect even discounting the injury.  And given the trend of TAMU LTs looking like can't miss prospects and sucking in the NFL so far, I wouldn't want him in the 1st.  In the 2nd?  Sure, worth a gamble.  Not with our first pick though.

Todd Gurley?

[JawnyBlaze]

Todd Gurley?

 

If you're asking what I think about Gurley at 25, if he checks out he'd definitely be worth it.  No injury, he's the best football player in this draft.  Discounting positional value, of course.

 

[C47]

7 sacks in 13 games after moving to LT this year. He was falling rapidly on draft boards prior to the injury.

What draft boards are you privy to?
