I don't think you understand what I'm saying and it's really a moot point.

back to the discussion, I think Alex Armah might be the greatest fullback of all time. 

Now you are being absurd. All time and best in a seemingly weak draft aren't comparable statements.

I personally liked the "eye rolling" GIF simply because every singe year I see the same thing...our guys get severely overhyped on this board out of excitement. I definitely get it. It's far more fun being optimistic vs pessimistic but to 15's point, why don't we pump the breaks a little bit and see him play first.

Then again, who am I to tell u what to say/believe?? I hope like hell Moton is the best olineman in the draft too

He's the one who declared the Miami TE a future All Pro in December. That's what makes it funny

I'm super leery of small school OL, but I hope this guy ends up being great. I don't think he'll start this year though. Definitely expecting a steep learning curve as he adjusts to a MUCH higher level of competition. He could simply physically overwhelm most of the guys he was facing at the small time college level. That won't fly in the NFL. Not even close.

Western Michigan is an ascending program and has been playing top level competition so they aren't a typical small school.  Also, Moton looks like a solid prospect.  I mean, he was one of our 2nd round picks, Oher if the furthest from a sure thing right now and he should be our backup LT.   Basically, Moton will come in over Williams IMO and start day 1 at RT.  It looks promising.

I'm not sure I'd call it a small school. They played 3 big ten teams this year. Two wins, one 8 point loss to the top 10 one. Not FCS or like Bradberry last year.

I like Morton and I hope he plays well enough to win the RT job.

MAC is definitely small program mid-major football.

I'd love it if he could be an upgrade at RT for us this season, but I'm honestly not expecting it.

Mid major is a good way to put it. If you beat 2 big ten schools and lose to a top 10 Wisconsin by a TD you have some talent.

Well, to be completely fair, they were two bottom feeder Big 10 teams that they beat. Wisconsin beat those two teams by a collective score of 69-10.

Western Michigan has a larger enrollment than Clemson FYI.

I figured since we were talking about football that it would be obvious that "small school" was referring to the football program, not academic enrollment.

In that regard they have the same number of players as Clemson

LOL!

Gettlebomb boom.  All this chatter is very reassuring.  Really liking our draft picks but its prior to the wedding so everythings looking like it will last forever.  We'll see.

Plenty of big program big names have not lived up to their expectations. It's not as simple as coming from a large program. Look at all the bad high IT picks from the SEC in recent years.
