Re: HB Blades or Stephon Heyer?

Good question. Of course, it also has to do with what players are available at #13. I actually think that Heyer and Blades are fairly similar in that they both have shown some potential but both also have liabilities. I'd actually say that I was more comfortable with H.B. Blades if you held me to it. I think his liabilities are mostly due to his lack of size whereas Heyer's are due in part to a lack of ability/athleticism. So what I am saying is that I think Blades is a better football player of the two. Very close though.

To me it would come down to the players available. If it is between Oher and Cushing I'd go with Oher because he is a much better player and I don't like Cushing (more than whether I feel more comfortable with Blades or Heyer). If it is Oher or Everette Brown, now you are making it tough. Bottom line, though, if Oher is there is SHOULD be the pick. It is in a doomsday scenario where all four OT's go in the top 10 that things start getting tricky. Mayock's latest mock top 10 actually had an interesting scenario. He had all four OTs going in the top 9 and Crabtree falling out of the top 10. Imagine a scenario where you had none of the OTs, Everette Brown, Aaron Maybin, and Michael Crabtree. Wonder what Cerratto would do.
