Are they?

Wisconsin (historically) does a great job developing OL to be sure but I believe we may have seen that lead to over-drafting now.

in 2011 they sent Carimi(r1), Moffitt(r3) and Nagy(Cowboys) to the pros.
Carimi has played in and started 7 games in 2 years due to injury concerns.
Moffiitt is at 11 games started and played in through 2 seasons for the same reasons. And is out now.
Nagy has 4 games played and was cut by us. Is sitting in Detroit currently.

2012 produced Konz, Zeitler, Oglesby.
Konz: Back up in ATL after being a r2 pick.
Zeitler: R1 pick. Day 1 starter at RG. Has impressed.
Ogelsby: UDFA got a look in Washington but appears to be out of the NFL currently.

Of all those guys Zeitler looks like a stud. Carimi has been slow to start his career with injuries. He had a game with a sack allowed and 3 penalties this month.



Wisc fired the OL coach in September.
