That's why he's this year's Adrian Peterson, because of his injury history pushing him down the draft boards, but the payoff for taking such a risk could be tremendous

I'm not advocating LT or bust in the 1st round but it's also extremely hard to gauge Croyle behind this awful line. If we take enough O-linemen to field an adequate line that can allow at least some protection, I'm fine with pulling him if he doesn't produce this year. If we draft soley on BPA and that leads to not taking any O-lineman until the bottom of the draft again, then we aren't giving the kid a chance. Brady and Manning would both only look mediocre behind this horrendous line. That's one reason I really want some early picks on the line. We can give Croyle all of next year and truly see what he has and if it's not enough, we'll be candidates for a top QB next year anyway. If our line is awful, it doesn't matter who the skill players are. And yes, the same can be said on the defensive side of the ball as well.

What if we drafted Eric Young in the 4th, John Sullivan in the 5th, and Chad Rinehart with our other 5th? We've just rebuilt the entire right side of our line. |

Now you are lying about my position. My position has always been to throw Croyle out there. However, I'm not going to worry about Croyle at all on draft day. That would be stupid. He can either get it done or not, we have nothing at all invested in him. And frankly, he's done nothing to warrant any consideration at all on draft day. You can draft all the offensive linemen you want, it doesn't mean Croyle won't get hurt. In fact, he probably will.

I'm a HUGE fan of Croyle's. Followed him pretty closely at Alabama. Saying that, why SHOULD he get any slack? He hasn't done anything yet. |

Same with all of these guys. Some of us are getting lambasted for asking that Bowe continue his play before we say he's a good/great player. Hell, Hali has had 2 pretty solid years, and there are still people demanding more/better from him. We'll need more from those players if we're ever going to compete for a Championship with them. |
