Not sure I'd agree w that. Take the ravens game where they went at our weakest link, cwebb and abused his ***. Saban did no different with Te'o and wouldn't take 5 weeks to do it. I'd pass on him.

If I had to draft a MLB in the first round I would rather Ogletree from Georgia. The only problem would be his size because he'd be playing in the middle. You need speed in the NFL nowadays from your linebackers

I agree. I love Notre Dame and have been a big Te'o supporter but the guy got abused on a regular. He was more a weakness than a strength. I know he was in place to almost get an interception on one play, but that was probably his only 'almost' highlight. He looked slow and confused and look like he didn't want to make tackles. Fox played better than he did and he was in on a couple of penalties.


He's a guy that BB could probably do something with in New England but otherwise I don't think he would fit with many teams.

What if he just played bad so he'd drop to a team like the Giants? (Sorry, Idk how to do Red font :P)

If we do not address the O-line issue in this years draft there is a serious problem. The o-line was usually what was responsible for our offensive woes. The running backs get no room because our O-line is abysmal.

Teo did not impress me, although I think Notre Dame's D line was who really got abused. I think that the Giants may want to go with a CB or DE in the first round. If we resign Beatty and you believe that Brewer is ready to step up on the right side then we can get a solid Guard in the second or third round or FA. I think we can score a solid MLB in the 2nd or 3rd round...

Just proved his point that we need DE's.

He will be there for us at 19 and we will pass

2 early for a return man and Gunner with character problems. Giants need another corner but they need a guy that can play outside
