    Did we win?

    I think I would be happy with Bolles, but I am not sure if Bolle's rawness creates a higher ceiling or if it reflects his limitations. He is fantastic run blocker but is limited in pass blocking, if that is something the staff feels they can teach him then the upside as a RT is there. But are we interested in an un-polished RT in the first round?

      I still have a gut feeling we have a trade already worked out.

        Hes got some Dielman type traits and thats why i gravitate towards him. But im not talking about him in the top 10 or anything. Id say move back in the late teens. None of the OL are perfect by any means. But if we are going to take one i like his upside. I just like his quick feet. I think he can evolve into a really good RT.

        Also last year we took Clark who i have to think TT felt was a steal where he drafted him. I dont think he was but these staffs rankings are always different than ours. I said earlier he probably had a much higher grade on clark. And they took Tuerk and signed Slauson. I think RT is the target. Just a gut feeling.

        Even Lamp would have a shot at RT. I sort of hope we just stay at 7 and get a playmaker.

        The other day Slausson was at LG. Where is Franklin. Is he moving back to RT?

          Lamp could probably handle RT. Everyone projects him to guard but he CAN play Tackle in NFL

                Most players who love the game are obsessed about the game. If they get hurt they know when and where that happens. Against what team and on what play.

                When asked about his injury at the combine Hooker says...

                "It happened in late November against some team up north". lol

                Is this guy into football or just using straight athleticism to be successful. He scares the hell out of me for some reason. Does he know the game? Does he eat sleep and breath football? Does he know the X's and O's?

                  When I played (briefly in 1975 as a 12 year old among giants) I thought X's and O's were hugs & kisses.

                    Hopefully it's back and we've collected more picks.

                      Team up North is how OSU refers to Michigan. I know this because when Urban Meyer was here, he refused to call BYU by their name, he only referred to them as that team down south. TDS has stuck with Utah fans and many of us still refer to BYU as TDS. It's an Urban Meyer thing...
