    Short yardage and red zone,
    "Joined Hershel Walker as the only player SEC to rush for 1000 yards and score 14 TD's in each of his first 3 seasons." No he is not Walker, but that is some impressive company and stars.

    I guess it depends on your definition of wasted pick. I only see 3 4th round picks since 2007 that made no real contribution to the League, maybe 4.

    I viewed the RB as a major need. It's a brutal position and you know injuries are going to happen. Having 3 guys on the team is a must.

    Just getting here. Love the Snell pick. Have no idea who this TE is, all the ones I had looked at were already taken.

    He's a giant. 6'8+ but there had to be better options at TE.

    Not overly productive. Not a great run blocker due to his height.

    had a terrible combine. One analyst projected him as a potential long range Tackle prospect. Was actually a QB when he first went to Michigan. This is one of those guys you just shake your head and hope he has something we did not see. At this point, even if he is just another JJ, he adds some value.

    Actually Spaeth filled a nice roll behind Heath. Type of guy you never hear about, goes about his business quietly, and does it nicely. Total prospect and project at this point however.

    Not my cup of tea in Gentry. An unusual pick Tight End wise for certain. He is big athletic man for certain. He will need some time in an NFL Weight Room though.



    Again, big... but what else?!

    Yep - the Spaeth allusion wasn’t meant as an insult. But I know very little about Gentry tbh
