BGO Draft Chat

A quick blurb on Gomes from NFL.com's draft page.

Gomes has the physicality and mentality to be a reserve defensive back who lines up near the box in nickel and dime packages while also providing special teams coverage value. Comfortable playing in zone down near the line, breaks well on the ball and is quick and aggressive in run support. Not capable of roaming the deep half or shadowing receivers, tight ends or backs in man coverage at the next level. Not comfortable tackling out in space. Durable and has the build to hold up in the NFL. Gomes has some limitations, but still warrant a late round selection or free agent consideration.
 
Okay, so who has the inside skinny on offensive linemen likely to be available in free agency? Clearly we're not going to be grabbing a hopeful starter in the draft at this point--that ship sailed probably 2 rounds ago. So there has to be another plan in place. Pretty clear this FO has a plan, so we have to assume it's in FA at this point.
 
Mark, I think OT Ryan Harris of the Broncos will be in DC next year.
 
Good stuff on Gomes here:

RT @Russellmania980: New #Redskins S/CB DeJon (DJ) Gomes just told @RickDocWalker & Chuck on @ESPNRadio980 that the #Cowboys are "losers."
 
I'm still eyeballing Barnes from Missouri at C, Om. He doesn't sound like a world beater but he does sound like the motivated, lunch box, give-me-chance kind of guys we have made a theme this draft.
 
Looks like a run on OL is beginning. I'd like us to get any of these players...

Derek Newton, OT, Arkansas State
Lee Ziemba, G/OT, Auburn
Brandon Fusco, C, Slippery Rock - Edited to add that he just got drafted.
Jake Kirkpatrick, C, TCU

I have been able to get two picks right today - and glad to get Royster!
 
Evan Royster, RB, Penn State

3/17/11: After a sluggish Combine in which he pulled his hamstring, Evan Royster had a solid Pro Day. He ran a 4.54 and looked good overall.
 
RB, WR. No OL. Hmmmm. I guess Shanny sees a lot of guys he really likes that will be available in the 7th and as UDFAs. If there even ARE UDFAs.
 
I want us to pick some Big Uglies. And why is it whoever Dallas picks is a great selection? They could pick their nose and ESPN would say it was a great pick.

Time to do yard work to get rid of some frustration.

This lockout will FUBAR the UDFA process. There is going to be a mad dash for FA and UDFA, it will br crazy.
