Trade down, get Landry and try to catch this fool in the 3rd or 4th round? I'd be willing to take a chance on such a physical specimen. They say a lot of linemen bust but if we're going to bust lets go out shooting!

Mercy!! That's one big guy. If I were a team with a few extra late round picks, I'd definitely consider this guy.

He's not going to last that long. Somebody is going to take a chance on this guy and I think it needs to be us. What's it going to hurt? I say 4th or 5th round we must pull the trigger.

If I'm a betting man, I say he's gone in the 3rd round.

Would you take a chance on him?

Maybe, but he's still a very raw project, and are his legal issues resolved? There's no way to predict what any team is going to do, but I'd be surprised to see him picked as high as 3rd.

Hard to say, but he's definitely worth a hard, hard look. I'd be inclined to pick him as high as the 4th round, possibly.

He may not be drafted really, i think he could be snagged in the 7th personally or else be brought in for a workout.

When you have only 4 picks, you have no choice BUT to be picky. The 'skins have no "throw-away" picks this year. If we take him, it means that Gibbs wasn't bluffing when he said:
"You'd like a guy to come in and make an immediate impact, but if you look at our football team, where could a player just step in right now and say, 'I'm taking over.' Where is that? So that makes us feel that we don't have to draft at any one position."
If you want to know who is most likely to pick him, look at those teams with extra picks that can be wasted on day 2.
