I know that, SL50, but the butt hurt over a 6th round pick in here is a little crazy. 75% of this board had no idea who Brown was when we drafted him and panned that move, also.Brown balled out at Purdue. He had penalty issues forcing him to slide.
Was hoping he might be one of our undrafted free agent signings.Falcons take...LB Foyesade Ouokun Yale

Look, Griffin's a great story, but this amount of overkill is akin to Michael Sam a few years back.
I get it. Great story. Can we talk about some of the other few hundred prospects are seeing their dreams come true?
These are exactly the rounds that you select guys like that. At this point, you're drafting on potential. There isn't a sure fire guy left in the draft at this point. Could we have had him as an UDFA? Maybe but McClay and Co. decided it was worth the pick. Call me crazy but I'll defer to McClay. I have a hunch he knows a little more about this whole thing than I do.Reading up on him, he entered Indiana as a dual threat QUARTERBACK. He couldn't cut it as a QB so they converted him to LBer. Last year he had a breakout year at LBer and was an honorable mention for All Big 10 Honors and he was voted Indiana's Defensive Player of the Year with 85 tackles, 12 for loss, 3 sacks and 5 passes broke up.
Sounds like he was drafted based on potential. He basically started playing LB in his sophomore year of college in 2015 and in 2 years was able to learn the position and win the team DPOY.
Anthony Brown has proven that he should have been drafted in the 6th round, a back-up player who gets exposed when he plays significant reps.Just like Anthony Brown. Oh wait.
wonder if we'd go LB again.
