April 26, 200916 yr Author comment_63857 Practice squad material. Peace He played more as an offensive lineman, but project better as a TE. Probably a blocking TE like Gilmore was since Davis couldn't take off in the blocking department. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63860 He played more as an offensive lineman, but project better as a TE. Probably a blocking TE like Gilmore was since Davis couldn't take off in the blocking department. At 6"2" 330#? I'm pretty sure he's a guard and I find it funny that NFLN called him a TE and NFL.com called him a guard Report

April 26, 200916 yr comment_63873 330 and ran a 4.68???? That is insane!!!!! Peace It was actually 303. Probably just mistyped. Report
April 26, 200916 yr comment_63879 It was actually 303. Probably just mistyped. either way that is insane, he entered the draft as a guard, at least he is labled as that on NFL.com. If He did run a 4.68 at that weight I would stick him as a fullback, why waist speed and hands on guard play. Report

God I hope we grab Southerland as a UDFA. Report
April 27, 200916 yr comment_63907 Because for some bat shit reason, our staff actually likes McKie. God I hope we grab Southerland as a UDFA. Sutherland is coming off a broken foot and must prove he is healthy. I would like them to go after Javorskie Lane. Who can be a relief as a ball carrier for Forte. Report
April 27, 200916 yr comment_63909 It's good to see the FO is sick of watching Kellen Davis try to block guys. Kellen Davis should have been sent to Arizona along with our 2nd and 5th for Boldin. Report
April 27, 200916 yr comment_63911 Great pick! I do mean that in all seriousness. If you don't believe me, think of it this way: How many times last year did we fail to convert on one yard situations? We've really missed have a guy like John Gilmore who can be the "road-grating" blocker. McKie is a better receiver then a blocker. With Olsen, Clark, and Kellen Davis, wouldn't it make sense to just eliminate the fullback position from the play-book altogether? Report

With Olsen, Clark, and Kellen Davis, wouldn't it make sense to just eliminate the fullback position from the play-book altogether? I agree, I liked the way we put Olsen in the backfield as a FB. Here's a formation: Hester WR Clark TE Pace LT Omiyale LG Kreutz C Buenning RG Williams RT Davis TE ..................................................................Cutler QB .................................................................Olsen FB ..................................................................Forte RB or Put Olsen at Hester's WR spot and put Louis as FB. Report
April 27, 200916 yr comment_63985 I was wrong on the time. It was a 4.75. Still not bad for that big a guy. Maybe he can lose 20 lbs and play TE/FB at 280. Remember, Turner uses the TE as an H back sometimes and moves him around and into the backfield as a lead blocker. Olsen sucks at it but this guy could be huge(no pun intended). Report
April 27, 200916 yr comment_63997 4.75 is fater then FB i seen in the combine. Stick him back there, You know he has hands for pass recieveing and with that type of speed can easily lead sweeps for Forte from the backfield. Let alone the fact straight up the gut. Report
