Steelers take Josh Dobbs. Wow that's an interesting offense for him to get to experience. It'd change a bit the minute he has to play but as a rookie that's interesting.

Zach Banner to the Colts. Son of Lincoln Kennedy. Played RT almost exclusively. Injuries early on. Played basketball. Absolutely massive. Used to be over 400 lbs. Was 361 at Senior Bowl. 353 at the Combine. Doesn't have great feet. Pass protection issues (grabs). Needs to develop characteristics that'll give him added versatility.

Would've loved to try and work with that kid as a coach if I could. Completely possible he flames out bad and quickly but he's the type of kid I'd love to be around as a coach.

Chiefs trade up to take Jehu Chesson. Like I said last night when the Seahawks took Darboh, Chesson also struggled against both Colorado corners. He was targeted 3 times in that game, had 0 catches, and couldn't get off the press. Ran a ton of possession routes so he's going to have to become more diverse.

Freaking great landing spot for him. Lots of shotgun and hella weapons to throw to with a GOD RB. Great for him. Hope it happens in the future. Great kid to root for.

Giants taking Wayne Gallman. Highly intrigued by what's going to become of him. He has very specific things that he does or might do well. I could've gone either way on him which is RARE for me with a RB. Very interested to see if they can get him involved in the passing game. Get him in space and let him do his work.

Yep. It could go very badly. Have to acknowledge that one. Won't deny it. Would love the chance to find out, though.

Yeah. My favorite CB left.

So is Tony Bridges and Nate Hairston if there are any fans of theirs left.

Chad Hansen to the Jets. Have liked a lot of the WRs they've gone with over the years but not a fan of that one. Don't follow his combine time if you're into that kind of thing. It's not indicative of his play speed IMO.

Colts take Marlon Mack. I feel like I've watched that guy for 8 years now. I don't know what it is about him. I can't explain it.

OMG the voice on the Colts gal is annoying. I'd rather hear that chimp try to read the card.

Dang. Colts just took one of my favorite DL remaining - Grover Stewart from Albany State.

Excellent size/body, good pop, and gets good push on bull rush. Plus ability against the double team and will disengage to make plays against the run. Needs to play with better technique right off the snap, especially with his hands, instead of waiting around. Needs to play with better pad level and leverage at times as well.
