2nd Day Draft Picks
-
Go back to my original post. That's what I've been saying all along, "late round pickup". And it's kind of a stretch to say Big Gay been almost beat Iowa in '03. They lost 21-3.

I said Roethlisberger almost beat Iowa "the year before", as in '02. That year, they lost 29-24.

If he doesn't go to Jacksonville - Tim Tebow.
Draft him as a TE, draft him as a situational player. Having him as a roleplayer will benefit whatever club gets him this late. Guarenteed. And I don't like Tim Tebow. But the man is built to play position football.

i was just going to throw that out there.
no one likes Tebow in the NFL... so i'm curious how far he'll slip down the draft.
and he shouldn't be having many character issues, that's for sure.

Actually, I heard Bob Griese on the radio. He really does like Tebow as an NFL QB.

I think Lagarrette Blount, RB Oregon, should be available on the 2nd day. He was projected as a 1st round pick before the punch @ Boisie St. Check him out @ the Rose Bowl. He ran for more than 1000 yards last year as part of a two back system. He could be the big back the Browns need. He runs as tough as Gerhart but he is a lot faster.

And if we need someone to sucker punch an opposing player he will come in handy!
All kidding aside, he is a big tough inside runner. A possible replacement for Jamal Lewis?
Unless....does anyone here think that this Jennings kid is the answer to that role?
Or James Davis is if he gets back healthy?

although we've had some players step up at linebacker late in the season such as Roth and Maiava, there are a couple guys who need to be upgraded such as Alex Hall and Arnold Harrison.
Can't find a draft prediction on him though. Should be around in the 2nd maybe third round.
Micah Johnson/Kentucky
6'2” 256 lbs.
Strengths: Size, Straight Line Speed, Burst, Instincts, Pass Coverage, Strength, Highlight Reel, Intensity
Weaknesses: Football IQ, Change of Direction, Tackling, Over Aggressive
The Kentucky senior finished 2008 with 93 tackles, 13.5 TFL and 3 sacks last year on his way to an All-SEC 1st Team pick by coaches and an Honourable Mention from the media, despite missing two games with an ankle injury. His three years at Kentucky are a showcase of Johnson’s numerous strengths. In his freshman year, 2006, Johnson ran for a TD against Clemson in Kentucky’s Motor City Bowl victory.
Johnson is incredibly gifted, capable of running with backs and outmuscling tightends. Johnson has good overall speed but he has elite burst and quickness and delivers a nasty blow. He has prototypical size at 6’2, 256 lbs and fills holes like a cement truck. Johnson possesses excellent strength, both upper and lower, popping blockers with a physical punch and creates space to explode towards the ballcarrier. He's strong enough to drag down even the biggest runners and will bring down a runner using only his arms.
Kentucky might be home to the best LB in college football. The potential is there for him to be great. I see similarities to Ray Lewis in Johnson: the burst, the intensity, game-changing abilities and an intimidation factor that should carry over to the pros.
Johnson needs to stay healthy, have a big year and lead Kentucky to its fourth straight Bowl win.
He is every bit as talented as Spikes and Penn State’s Sean Lee. Johnson is just as big and just as fast as Spikes and hits just as hard.

When he's in shape, that's true. However, he looked fat and slow in the Boise State game and didn't appear all that explosive against Oregon State.
At this point, Gerhart might be the faster back.

I think James Davis could be the inside runner for us, although he's not exactly "big". Watching him in college, though, some of his best runs were inbetween the tackles. He has great vision, and he's very patient. He hits the hole with a vengeance, though, and his cut moves are pretty good. He's not going to rumble and bumble his way through a line, carrying six would-be tacklers. But, IMO, that's what a fullback does, not a runningback.
Don't get me wrong, though. He's not going to shy away from a hit, either. He'll run through you, or around you. Whichever way will get more yards.
