He played tight end on the football team, catching 24 passes for 559 yards and 7 touchdowns as a senior. He was considered to be one of the top 50 prospects in the state and he accepted a scholarship to play at Central Michigan. He saw action in 11 games as a true freshman, catching 11 passes for 130 yards and a touchdown. He was switched to right tackle prior to his sophomore season.

He continued to start at left tackle as a senior, allowing just one sack on the season. He was named first team all-MAC for his play as a senior.

the promise is in what a first class organization could make of this kid.... say we draft safety - is that sure-fire stud gonna be out there? - more likely, it'll be an adequate player, perhaps a solid fit.... this kid hasn't received the hype - under the radar - will be there AND he's just beginning his promise - any safety taken will already be mostly matured

Many OL questions?


The only "question" on the OL is right guard.

Too confusing for you?

Sorry, I can't break it down any simpler then that.

While I do believe RG is the biggest question.

I would not say it is the only question mark.

my wife went to Rockford High and we currently live 5 miles north of there. It's one of the better high school programs in the state of Michigan. Coach Munger at Rockford sends a pipeline of O-linemen to D-1 and D-2 schools every year. There's a kid at Cincy playing for Marvin Lewis right now that went to Rockford and CMU as well. Rockford is best known for being the world HQ's of Wolverine World Wide, which makes Hush Puppy shoes as well as Merrill's.

If we really believe that McQ is the future at LT, then OK.
If not, Staley would be the logical fit.

Joe did not have a good Senior bowl...he missed many assignments and got eaten up at times. His profile spells stud, but he did not play well.
