Or because you switch majors and the result is not enough credit hours to be elidgible.

Ah, so a mere technicality. Then its a non-issue.

I'm liking Indy's draft. They're surrounding Andrew Luck pretty well.

Teams working him at center, so may plug in at multiple positions. Hope they know what they're doing. With two fourth rounders, would have assumed this guy would have been there to take later.

Good thing Shanahan can make these mid-round draft picks turn into gold, because I'm disappointed by what seems like reach. I'm hoping he's more than Chad Rinehart, another one drafted too early in the 3rd round -- who's off our team.

He's also got some size and ooomph. Seems like Shanny is higher increased his standards now that he doesn't have 8 games one mile above sea level and the NFC East is one bloodthirsty divsion on defense.

Not really. I mean the Cowboys secondary was apparently terrible last year and the Eagles remain committed to the wide 9, aka the worst defensive system in all of football. Redskins were pretty good but not great. The Giants were terrible until the playoffs came around.

I said bloodthirsty, not good in all facets. They may give up a ton of yards and points, but the NFC east can still punish quarterbacks thanks to having quality players in the front 4 and front 7.

The wide 9 can work, when they players aren't complete greenhorns to the system and you have the horses to run the system. Detroit and Tennessee are two examples.

I believe there was an entire thread about this. Initially thought to be a strategy employed only by the KC Chiefs, it was later believed that many drafted players are captains because normally only the best players on college teams are the ones to be named captains. I remember a lot of pics of various cartoon captains as well.

If LeRibus wins a Starting spot at G or C in a year or two , where he was drafted won't matter , and we added another pick .

He should get credit for losing the weight, much easier to gain it than lose it.

there is actually some decent talent going into the 4th tomorrow. Hopefully we can grab some without reaching.

I can't believe we are making comparisons to players Vinny Cerrato drafted.
