I haven't seen that. Scouts Inc had him at #36 and then I've seen him on the other side listed at #60something a couple places and then a #70something.

As fans we just have to realize that the player rankings we see on various websites isn't an NFL team draft board. Massie was listed ahead of Allen on everyboard I've seen and yet he was on the board alot longer. I'll go out on a limb and say that in our situation trying to upgrade the o line and add depth to it that Pioli had a high value on versatility.
