Gary Kubiak, if he's smart, takes Courtney Upshaw.

Correct. I forgot that he was in New England too. I think he has been doing good, and recently picked him up in FA on Madden, so I think I'm just tired.

Believe it or not, his recruitment came down to Alabama v. Vandy. He's a smart kid.
+ he left class and went and hid when Fat Phil came calling. Doesn't get any smarter than that.

Bengals are going to take an OL.

I always find it amazing how many players i have never heard of who get drafted in the first round. And i watch a pretty good amount of CF.

Doesn't really fit what Wade likes in his OLBs, plus Mercilus has better passrush potential.

Does Upshaw have cancer or something
Teams don't seem to know what they'd really want him for.
Didn't see him drop into coverage much, so that's a red flag if you're going to put him at 3-4 jack.
As a DE he's not that speed rusher most NFL teams want.
He just kicks the living shite out of QB's. Over...and over. Guess they don't like that as much as they used to.

I didn't expect Cordy Glenn to still be around.

UpShaw has short arms, not much burst, doesn't play well in coverage, etc...
He has some unknowns to say the least.
Still a beast.

Zeitler over Glenn? Interesting.

Damn.....I feel bad for Upshaw. Hopefully he fricks up some of these teams QBs.

He's good covering the Flat, but that is it. He isn't great in coverage.
I think he can play at DE. I don't care how short his arms are, he is very powerful, and can bull rush like a boss. Will his Run D be top notch? No, but it'll be good enough that the pass rushing makes up for it. Besides, we've all heard it, this is a passing league.

The Ravens may take UpShaw...
Posted on 4/26/12 at 9:36 pm to Robot Santa
Wouldn't be shocked to see a trade here.

Doesn't play "well in coverage"? Who the frick is he supposed to cover? No wonder you don't have a clue what the Broncos are up to.

Nice breakdown on the garbage the Browns have drafted for the Julio trade.
Yes I know they mentioned Trent, but they'd have had that pick without the trade.

The Falcons still gave up way too much, but shockingly, they are going to end up making out like bandits in that trade.
