I'd bet he'll spend the 2010 season bouncing between active roster and the practice squad where hopefully, he'll be able to "figure it out".

I really like the Moeaki pick and I'm not surprised that he's doing well. His injuries weren't serious in college, just untimely. He may end up as the steal of the 2010 third round.

I think we're seeing a lot of the Charlie Weis influence. Since Weis left New England, the Pats valued the tight end but had no ****ing clue how to draft them. Moeaki, to me, seems like a Weis tight end. O'Connell seems like a McDaniels tight end. He can't block for shit and no way will that fly in Weis' offense. I think Moeaki will be a nice part of the offense if healthy, whereas I think O'Connell has a HUGE climb to get out of the doghouse.

I wonder what team we thought would select him before our original 4th rounder, that made us pull the trigger to trade up in front of them, was.

Jake O'Connell wasn't even a good player at a mid major school. He didn't have projectable size or speed.

I asked some of the guys I knew who played against them what they thought and they told me, "I have no idea who that guy even is".

There were a shitload of really good players taken in the 3rd this year.

This reminds me of Cottam.
History states that he cannot stay on the field.
Definition of insanity actually.

Go ahead and list Moeaki's injuries. We'll be waiting.

In the meantime, compare Cottam's 21 catches in 4 years with Moeaki's production.

JFC, there are some dumb mother****ers that post here.

That may be true but since Moeaki was taken 29th, if he plays to the level that the Chiefs expect him to play, he may turn out to be the steal of the third round.

At this point, it's all speculation and probably not even worth discussing. But I am happy to hear that he's not choking on his own vomit like O'Connell.

It's a 7th-round pick, fer crissake. How many 6ths and 7ths really work out? You can get a 6th or 7th draft pick by trading a team a box of jocks and some Gatorade. If and when they pan out (e.g. Tom Brady) it's more the exception than the norm.

7th rd pick or not I think the point he was trying to make was that Jake O'Connell is STILL having trouble catching the ball.......since that was a major issue for him last season.

Cottam's probably not a world beater, but he's only played for 2 years.

I actually believe that if Cottam can stay healthy, he absolutely belongs on an NFL roster.

But it's epic fail to compare his college production to Moeaki's, injuries and all.

jspchief 06-13-2010 07:54 PM

From this day forward, can the acronym "IHCSH" be substitued for Moeaki?

milkman 06-13-2010 07:56 PM

Let's see.

Broken wrist
Dislocated elbow

Broken foot
Hamstring

And a concussion

But hey, he's going to be durable in the NFL.
