I like Ziemba's reach and ballance to deal with a speed rusher from the right side and his strength for run blocking. Not sure he has the foot quickness to be a great left tackle.

I would expect Sherrod to go earlier, Cinci can't afford another bust like two years ago form a top 20 pick on the O-line.

i would agree with this. pierre thomas was undrafted. chris ivory was undrafted and leads all rookies in yards, ypc, and TD's


Agreed. During the bills game they showed a chart of all the rookie RB's having some success this year. Almost all of them were undrafted or late round picks. The only top pick was CJ spiller, who was last in production amongst all rookies

Problem is- Cincy is going to have the 2nd pick most likely- 3rd at the lowest

They will be able to get whatever they want- based on watching their defense- I'd draft Peterson from LSU

but does he have the tenacity to run block as well as a RT needs too? That's my question with him.

at 1st glance he doesn't but he plays with such great technique and has a nice kick slide to where he can cut the guy off using his great technique.

In any event he is a good prospect and I hope he gets invited to the Sr. Bowl.

true.

Although I'm not convinced they'll take an o.linemen with their 1st pick. They have alot of holes and are beginning to get old at alot of spots.

well admittedly he is a backup on one of the worst teams in the nfl. He is a good player though.

Yes he is but to say hes on the bills is just an excuse. Fitzpatrick and steve johnson are having good years on that team. The fact thats hes a backup on the bills in concerning. You wonder if he tries his hardest considering he got so much cash already

why? They have one of the best CB duos in the league with Joseph and Hall.

When did you watch them? I can't remember which one but one is on IR so that may be why their Secondary was getting toasted.

I doubt this is true. He has had a good year just doesn't get that much PT.

no, Pernell McPhee from our DL will go in the 3rd or so...and then LB's KJ Wright and Chris White have a chance to be drafted too

We only have 6 senior starters- and one of them is part-time...State basically has 17 starters returning next year- thats why we are all excited- we will have a better team in 2011 than we did this year

The guy was a consensus top 5 pick coming into the year. Yes, he'll get on a better team out of the break, but there is a big dropoff in money between the #22 drafted player and the #5.


Problem is the new CBA will have a rookie salary cap that will take care of that. Better get out while the getting is good.

That sucks for him. I really think he could do himself a world of good to come back for his senior year.


Really, he isn't even the best running back on his own team!!!!!

Newton is going to go in the 6-15 overall range. I would say Raiders if they were picking around that area, but I think the Vikings very well may take Cam

AP? Chris Johnson? I would be more than glad to get those two in the top 10 of any draft. They are flat out studs!

Joseph ended one season on IR. Cincy has likes the LSU players, an most have done well. Whitworth, Livings (Undrafted), to name a couple. PP7 can return KO and Punts from day one. Don't know where he ends up. But he won't last long on the draft board. Best of luck to all the SEC guys.

that's a huge factor that is why there is no way he slips past 5. I personally think the Lions would absolutely love to have him there.
