this is taco's response to jerry saying that micah parsons was his pick, and taco charlton was stevie's
wasn't on ANYONE'S draft board
No, Kiper had him going to us in one of his mock drafts. Still a wasted pick anyway in my view. Especially with Johnson sitting there.is that true?
You forgot,Jerry, every year:
1) So and so was the highest rated player left on our board
2) Other teams were hot on the trail of so and so
3) We couldn't risk losing so and so by trading down
any questions?
No, it wasnt true.is that true?
if so, lololol, so jones&spawn-esque
He wasn't on my draft board because small school weak conference few games played and a holding machine.No, it wasnt true.
He wasnt on Dooms draft board because the dude doesnt study anything about the draft.
That's obviously the concern, can Philbin and the asst O Line coach get the most out of him, because it appears the tools are there to mold. I love the kids nasty attitude and as you note, he is a pretty smart kid who by all accounts works his butt off.He wasn't on my draft board because small school weak conference few games played and a holding machine.
Like you said earlier, I have zero faith we can "coach him up." At least his wonderlic score is good. So maybe we can reason with him at least.
Sometimes it's more about where you land, not just about reps, games played, conference, school. Not sure Dallas is a good landing spot for this guy. But, we're married to him now so we'll see.That's obviously the concern, can Philbin and the asst O Line coach get the most out of him, because it appears the tools are there to mold.

The Titans staff loved him and apparently wanted to take him, but they have a Grade A OL coach and a blocking scheme that seems tailor made for somebody like this kid. Like I said last night, if we had Tony Wise, Hudson Houck or Bill Callhan coaching this kid I'd feel really good about him panning out.
