Shawn Wells posted a lot of this recent chatter on his bulletin board. He reads it in between running wind sprints uphill, backwards, while pulling a weighted sled.Philly Freedom

Stanley "No Relation " Morrison WR 1.3 52/78 so far so good pre camp seems to be worthy of being drafted 3rd overall fingers crossed
post camp 56/75 so far so good the 88 vol scared me but all is well and the 100 bpr doesnt hurt
Hugh Emerson RB 1.11 51/74 tinkered with moving him to WR but his BPR was only 40ish so no worries looks like were back to running the ball which is fine by me but his great hands out of the backfield will add an extra dimension weve not had for a while. hopefully camp is kind
post camp 54/70 looks good shame he couldnt move to wr but he will help in the passing game none the less
Cornell Shaw RT 1.30 18/66 looks like we may have missed hell probably be serviceable but not worth the 1st round pick
post camp 20/57 oops
Quentin "Ram Tough" Dodge K 3.3 28/35 40% developed combines say awesome bars say not so much well try this again. looks like a workout warrior who fooled the scouts and me
post camp 30/38 ok guess he didnt go down
Antonio "Double A" Andrews QB 5.3 14/46 drafted him a bit by accident had him on the list because he was VU and had a 90 drill. probably a mistake but in the 5th not too costly
post camp 16/41 he'll get some time to develop but he'll get most of the reps in pre season
Andy Cash RG 6.4 18/39 perfectly average may not make the team after camp
post camp 24/33 sadly the best of the crop of o linemen i brought into camp
Alvin Baker RB/PR/ST 6.24 37/55 figured it was worth a shot here one of the better PR bars and has a good ST bar and looks to be usefull in the passing game in a pinch so worse comes to worse hes a good #3 RB that plays ST
post camp 37/49 tough tough decision here could find a home as a pr and maybe a 3rd down back but our backfield is crowded
Emmitt New LG 7.3 11/60 looks to be good value for a 7th rounder he wont be asked to start right away
post camp 14/53 long term project but looks good for a 7th
UDFA Lonnie Stargell 18/54 will be helpfull in rebuilding the line for the future

2026 draft recap
1.7 Donovan Wright
Solid not spectacular altho he did have 6 sacks last season and the endurance hasnt been as big a deal as was feared
1.22 Lee Baxter been a solid MLB however a liablity in the pass game so he comes out in the nickel dime packages hes also pulled in a int each of the last 2 years so maybe nes not so bad
2.21
Peter Briggs had been what i wanted a good #2 great change of pace back and break break one any time.
3.20
Lamar campo
well bit of a bummer more of a zone guy hes got a big INT bar so ive gotta get him on the field. with the retirement of cris lowe hell be the nickel back
3.24
lee stock great value hes been in the mix and productive coming off the bench last season he contributed after getting the chance to play all 16 games
4.22
Larry Anderson
will start at S after learning his craft nice coverage bars not an int guy but should be ok in the deep zone
5.21
ricardo preston
earned a starting spot good in coverage 2 picks last year 7 passes defensed to go with 56 tackles not bad for a 5th rounder
the rest of the draft was crap.
also my sole pick from the 2027 draft
2.16
Dexter Kuluga road eater bit of a pass blocking challenge but hell anchor this line for years to come

2029 draft
1.19 Don Parrott 6'1 296 G Clemson 26/82
Bit undersized like the rest of my line, more of a technician than a mauler should help reduce our franchise high 44 sacks we allowed last season and with the addition of FA T Mercury Southrey we should shore up our line and give new QB Sammy "im 2 inches taller than frodo" Jennings some time and added another target with our other 1st round pick
1.21 Antoine Vaughn 6'3 244 TE Mississippi State 60/70
Definitely a position of need hes an upgrade with all the 3 WR set weve been running a good Te helps. Hell help both the running and passing games sure handed, but not "dynamic" hell help move the chains
3.19 Corey Wenzel 5'9 178 CB Clemson 30/70
good quality pick here, big int bar tho not much of a run stuffer hell be a fine nickel back and contribute on special teams

2029 post TC
1.19 Don Parrott 6'1 296 G Clemson 26/82 ----> 37/82
so far so good may be the day 1 starter couldnt add weight so he may be limited he may never reach 82 but we can hope. Hell be the anchor of our line for 10 years
1.21 Antoine Vaughn 6'3 244 TE Mississippi State 60/70 -----> 65/68
despite the small drop i was pleasantly surprised by the pass blocking bar coming out at 74 when we scouted him it was 25/38, RR is 43/66 scouted was 66/79 and my scout had him overrated. but hell help us in all 3 phases passing running and blocking.
Well we are pleased nonetheless he'll be the starter day 1
3.19 Corey Wenzel 5'9 178 CB Clemson 30/70 ------> 32/61 well was expecting a drop like this, hopefully hell settle in the 40's he'll be the nickel back also contribute on special teams only bad thing is the 0 run d
only 3 draft picks so we got a few rookie free agents
Chester "Jizzman 2.0" Jizmejian 6'3 252 DE Maryland 23/49 went +4/-4 in camp
5th round pick released by AI las vegas, afinity guy as well as a pass rush run d end not very "strong" but he will help with the departure of Erick Norton well give him a year or 2 just like we did with Jeff Brooks well coach him up and hope for the best
Bryan Sheldon 6'4 260 H back Frostberg State 32/48 +3/-5 in camp
gonna play him mostly at fullback making him a true H back sure hands and being a solid blocker may keep him around
Lincoln Gunn 6'4 314 G Baylor 16/41 3+/-2 in camp
probably wont make the cut, got him mainly as an affinity guy but looks like he wont be around for the long haul

2029 draft recap
Don Parrott 6'1 296 G Clemson 37/82---> 50/82 he started his long climb to fill his potential. 14% developed to start the season hopefully summer leauge will help him along after a rough rookie season
Antoine Vaughn 6'3 244 TE Mississippi State 65/68 -----> 80/80
we really were pleasantly surprised and where he ended up at. 21 catches last season we REALLY need to get him the ball more often as he averaged over 13 ypc
3.19 Corey Wenzel 5'9 178 CB Clemson 32/61 ------> 38/61 had a bit of a rough rookie season he did have an int fumble recovery and 3 st tackles. we'll bring him along and hopefully he''ll improve steadily
only 3 draft picks so we got a few rookie free agents
Chester "Jizzman 2.0" Jizmejian 6'3 252 DE Maryland 23/49 ------> 28/49
played sporadically and contributed nicely
Bryan Sheldon 6'4 260 H back Frostberg State 32/48 ------> 41/48 perfect #2 TE he will be around for a long time ans will help more in the running game

2030 Draft
The cuppboard will be bare for a while after all that we gave up to get Grant Lienning so weve got make good picks and i think we did
3.22 Randal Hutchinson 5'11 197 S Meryhurst 23/61
well so far so good looks to be as advertised. With the retirement of Mo Lyon S was a need for us wont be asked to start immediately . Smart guy high PD bar and good in run support will probably play SS
3.23 Henry Loville 6'3 287 G Nebraska 30/44
Sticking to my undersized lineman theme (our line averages only 298lbs. with only Mercury Southern over 325 ) a bit smallish but strong as heck (32 reps on the bench) pass blocker that will time to grow in the system
4.16 Junior El Nino 5'10 230 FB Wisconsin 27/67
Was the #1 rated FB traded future picks to get him kinda overpaid but glad we got him. 24 reps on the bench so we're hoping hes stronger than his bars say, interestingly converts at 73% for one heck of a rb and an asset in the passing game. we'll get him more touches and hes a solid special teamer.
we also signed Howard "first" Downs 6'1 203 WR Stephen F Austin 20/39
hope he fills in as the slot 4th wr and maybe more reminds us of Jerome Kritezer
we hope camp goes well for Hutch especiallyLast edited by strickzilla; 08-03-2013, 03:17 PM.
