I feel like I'm leaving a U2 concert,
backs bit concerned everybody games good guy guys injury overrated pounding running size small weight
I think the size thing is a little bit overrated in running backs. Everybody says, 'Well, we need a big back.' Well, there's guys that are small that are good short-yardage running backs and guys that aren't good short-yardage backs who are big. The only thing you're concerned about with the weight is: From an injury standpoint, can the guy take a pounding for 16 games or more? That's what you're really concerned about.
explained talented
He explained everything. He's really a talented guy.
few guys talented
He's a talented guy. I think there's a few guys like that, that are probably not going to come in right away.
chance guys helps leave
We had a lot of contributors, and that helps the whole process. Some guys just never get a chance to play and sometimes they leave before they get a chance to develop.
bad board feeling guess guys last lines sure taken
You can guess all you want, but you can't know for sure if one of the guys you want is going to be there at 14. It would be a bad feeling to see one of the last guys you really like being taken at No. 13. But, luckily, I think the way our board lines up right now, there should be a guy we want with that 14th pick.
answer football heck matt until wait
I think Matt McCoy is going to be a heck of a football player. I really do. Right now, it's just wait and see until we answer that question.
ability feelings players somebody sooner system value
We put a value on everybody, and we look at a player's ability and what players are going to be doing down the road. The system we use - sooner or later, somebody is going to get their feelings hurt.
explained talked
We talked to him at the combine. We talked to him here. He explained everything. That's all I can say about that.
guess guys hope might side top turn
The top 32 guys we have on our board, I'd guess that about 28 of them will be taken. There might be 15 of them that don't turn out that good. You hope that you're not on that side of it.
good last players year
We got some good players out of that draft... but I really don't know what else we can take out of that draft. It's not like we did anything differently than we'll do this year or we did last year.
dog guy hour miles per realistic stretch
To me, that's not one of his issues. We all want the guy that's going to play 100 miles per hour every snap. I don't know how realistic that is. He's not by any stretch a dog or anything like that.
player
We're going to get a player who's going to at least compete.
asking lots move people rather seems talked
With two in the second, we're getting lots of calls. We've talked to just about everyone in the league, and it seems as if more people are asking us if we want to move up rather than the other way around.
