ARTICLE: Prospects we were interested in at the senior bowl

[Kilyin]

Some of these guys at the practice couldn't catch a cold today. Drop after drop. Anyone know anything about Brodie Croyle? The announcers talked him up a bit, mentioning he only threw 4 interceptions at SCC. He is putting his throws where they need to be, guys just aren't catching them.

I think ability to get after a QB is very important but by the same token if a team can keep the ball on the ground and move the chains the pass rush becomes meaningless.

I think we'll be much improved against the run next year. I believe this is who will start:
DE - Spears
NT - Ferguson
DE - Canty

OLB - Ware
ILB - James
ILB - Burnett
OLB - ?

Spears, Canty, Ware, James, and Burnett were all either 1st year starters or rookies (except for Ferguson). With actual game experience under their belts and a full year of weight training, etc., they should play even better now and we should improve against the run. So I'm more interested in improving the pass rush because I believe we're already on our way to being better against the run.

Check out who I have us taking in the 2nd round. I've had him going to us since I put down my very early top 3 Cowboys mock. Good to hear that he's doing well and that the 'Boys are interested......
