Waiting to try to get him with the #44 pick in the second round could be a mistake that GB could regret.

As for his skills, many rookies need the next level training that college did not provide. The GB Caches should be able to teach this young man the skills he will need in the pros.

You can't just teach any player, any skill, player have strengths and weaknesses.

Again McGary strengths are the power items, and his big weakness is major struggle against speed rushes... though the blocking TE that is expected to be used could help with that.

But isn't not just a magical, the coaches should be able to fix that, just like they weren't able to fix Spriggs (which I happen to also get I to a pre-draft arugment with a online buddy, saying he's clearly not a 1st round guy as well).

Spriggs because he looked like a very well developed one year starter (the problem being he was a 4 year starter and should have developed more than that with all the playing time, I thought Spriggs was a slow developer).

Z2C zinged 1,000 pardons. I will endeavor to abbreviate less other than using OL, DL, and 12.

Anyone could be selected by another team, especially if some team completely over rates a player...

IMO 1st round and top of 2nd round is way too high for McGary... he has a chance to become King of the power game, but man did he struggle with speed rushes and if we're going to be heavy into zone run blocking, that might mean we need better movement skills and less power guy anyways.

McGary is interesting but he's clearly has alot of developing left....

Then again, Gute seems to be going for highest potential, which has led to a lot of developmental guys, so it's quite possible that he's interested, bit 1st round seems way too high... he's a day 2 (rounds 2 and 3) guy.

From what I've seen and been reading, you have to wonder if he'll even ever make it to right tackle or if he'll be a guard, ocassionally kicking out to RT when in a pinch.

Regardless of that, he doesn't stack up favourably to the other players who will be around at 30. Risner, Little, Ford, Williams, McCoy... Maybe even Dillard, but I don't know if that's the way we need to go in the run game. One of those guys is bound to fall to pick 30 and are all better players.

Not all perfect scheme fits, but McGary doesn't completely fit that bill either, like beast already said.

Gute shockingly takes BPA @ #30. That'll be WR Parris Campbell. (you're welcome BPF.)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)
