Max Unger would have been sweet. No doubt about it. Let's just get over it please.

There was no one there. Although I still would have taken a shot on Sean Smith but whatever. It wasn't like there was a guy staring in our face. After Unger was picked I didn't like anyone that was remaining except Rashad and he's still there.

There will be alot of wheelin n dealin by Jerry tommorrow. I can promise you that. There's a reason why he didn't want to touch anyone besides Unger in late round 1 and 2 with a 10 foot pole. They have a ton of players they like in the later rounds and they will get them guarenteed. Now they have more firepower to do whatever they want.
Jerry's coming out blazing tommorrow!!
What I don't get is guys advocating taking Unger last year or Tennant this year are jumping all over me for targeting Pouncy...in the same area Tennant will be taken?
Or having an issue for taking a center first (like you would have taken Unger)?
I'm sorry if you never heard of Pouncy or didn't have the foresight to start looking at guys who it appears are leaning towards coming out.
Don't give the excuse that you were looking at Unger to play guard.
I like Tennant but he's just too thin. Very good athlete for the center position.
But we have experienced an OC twice that didn't have the bulk or strength to get it done in there (AJ and Shiver).
5 years in BC's strength and conditioning system and Tennant can't put on the size.
I'll take the guy with Gurode-like size/strength who MIGHT be just a little bit better at the shotgun snap.
And is 11 years younger than Gurode.
Turns 21 next July.
