DB isn't just corner. Extremely thin at safety still. And, there's no depth behind Worley and Bradberry on the outside. 

Kai Nacua for safety!

Did gettleman just draft Edmund Kugbila again?

Let's hope he isn't hurt this time around. Who knows whether Kugzilla would've been good or not. Unfortunate for him and here's DG's next shot.

Our small school OL picks haven't amounted to poo. Our big school even UDFA's have faired much better.

It's almost like there's very little correlation between what school you went to and how good of a player you can be.

Can play OG or RT

Interesting that he was announced by Travelle Wharton, a 9 year Panther stalwart that bounced between tackle and guard as much as anyone I can remember. 

The selection is fine by me.

disappointed in one of the deepest db draft we didn't get our hands on one, besides that does he line up at ot? I'll admit i'm not a fan of dg's draft here lately, i really question the bpa philosophy but eager to see how this plays out.

hell be the starter at rt come week 1

I'm not sure if I hope you're right or not. I would kind of like  to see Kalil and Oher get back to their old selves and fight it out over who starts at LT and the loser goes to RT. That would be a pretty darn good O-line with Norwell and Turner as the guards and Ryan at center.

Not to mention that we also triple dipped at CB last draft

I have tried to pie your last two posts but can't because I'm over my limit but lol so true

[*FreeFua*]

So either they're concerned with Oher's health and have no faith in the 3rd rounder they used to pick Daryl Williams or they don't think they can pay Norwell and Turner?

What a disappointing 2nd round. Had a chance to really add on to a nice Thursday night but failed to do so

Probably a WR in the 3rd. 
Come back tomrow with a FB. 
 
All-in on offense. 

This! I can't push the like button hard enough.

There is actually.

It's how Miami is known as a ILB and TE type of school.

And if you paid any attention to our own Geoff Schwartz he just laid out an entire article detailing how/why certain schools always produce top tier OL.

All Offense so far. I like the message Gettleman is sending. Weapons for Cam and finally drafting some protection... and this dudes HUGE! I love it

Great a small school OL...

 

Can't believe we went with three offensive picks first with how deep this freaking draft is at DB and DE.

Gee you answered your own question.

Why pick one of these high if the draft is deep at said position? You'll have high quality players later.

Oh and corners is deep at the 2nd-5th round level guys, not 1st round quality ones.
