Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
Now that cooler heads have prevailed, I can honestly say I'm loving our draft. I wasn't thrilled about giving up next year's 2nd rounder but I really like Alvin Kamara so I can live with it. The Anzalone pick wasn't my favorite choice but I'll be optimistic and wait and see how he does.
All in all, I'm pretty darn excited about what we're doing! One more pick today... Maybe we'll find a real diamond in the rough. |

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
Like the secondary picks also seems the DL will be better than assumed otherwise we go DE early. They must feel confident we will get pressure with what we have.
The James White style RB is also smart. Think we get two starters out of this draft. Everyone else PS or cut. Anything more than that and we hit pay dirt. |

Remember former 5 star Gator and Saint Ronald Powell? Just couldn't stay healthy. |

Quite a big difference from a kid who had shoulder problems(which haven't been a problem since his junior year) and a broken forearm last year... |

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
Look, we can all put as much shine as we want on it, but the guy has had injuries and they're a concern. That's just simply the truth. You hope they're behind him, but every year Ellerbe misses 8 games. Just the way it is. It is a shame because ellerbe is such a difference maker when in there. Who knows what will become of this kid. Clearly has talent and can play, but yeah injuries are a concern. Have to hope for the best
