Sturm: Chance Warmack

[CowboyMcCoy]

I agree too.

Warmack is my #1 target. I used to want Richardson at 18 but I don't believe he'll be available.

I agree here, mostly because Warmack is a guard. I think we'll be OK at the tackle positions and, as bad as Free played, I thought our guards played much worse. Free just sticks out because he had some really bad plays late in the season. But our interior line was pathetic last year.

Stop the day dreaming ... we will not draft an OG in the first round.

May as well expect Jerry to pick up a PK, P, or FB in the first round.

I don't think you understand.

I believe that Wilber was a 3-4 OLB. He played in coverage more often than he rushed the passer in the games that I watched.

WF only went 3-4 for his senior season. He was a DE the rest of his career.

He was universally listed as a LB due to his size. He is considered a SOLB but his best work was along the line of scrimmage. He wore 97.

ABQ: What does score have to do with the fact Jonathon Cooper didn't play at all in those games? You listed 5 or 6 guys he never faced because he didn't see them as a freshman and they left before his team faced them.

I am not making distinctions that common sense makes for you. Did Cooper block guys or not. That is the comparison. I expect a certain level of intelligence if we are to discuss anything. Speaking of DT and LB who Warmack actually blocked then talking about guys Cooper never even faced is exactly that: disingenuous.

If you have any youtube footage of Cooper blocking NFL caliber guys feel free to share it. Instead you listed utter nonsense including a plethora of 6th and 7th round guys who never made full NFL rosters and called them NFL talents comparing them to guys Warmack faced that will go in the first 2 or 3 rounds.

Your points about Vaccaro and Thomas go no where. They aren't the same player and they have different skillsets altogether. Thomas was a true free safety whereas Vaccaro spent as much time as CB as he did safety. If you choose to value them the same that is fine but don't cry when others do not. UT players, like Bama and USC and any other highly rated program struggle to live us to draft status. That's because ALL players struggle to live up to draft status as a whole. UT fans hating DeMarco Murray and UT fans hating Thomas though had nothing to do with player evaluation. All I care about is player evaluation.

I'm a huge UT fan and a Vaccaro fan, but Vaccaro won't be ready to start his first year. At least he won't be a really good safety his first year. He struggles at times. Look at the Tech game. He'll be a good NFL player, but he'll need to adjust to the NFL and that will take time. I also love me some DeMarco Murray.

A guy who can really move people when he is asked to key block, a guy who can knock a massive dude off balance with one arm then go get a linebacker and erase him, and a pass blocker who is just going to stonewall dudes.

I cannot see how you can watch the LSU, TN or GA game and conclude that about his pass protection.
