College guys to watch

The thing I am upset about is not so much the Draft, as we signed a big free agent DE in Colvin, and then he didn't work out! I thought with his signing we had closed the biggest hole left when we didn't go for a DE somewhere in the Draft. Now we are back where we were. Does Kubiak and Richard Smith think we have someone already on the roster that is going to step up and deliver that passrush we are (have been) lacking? They will have to show me.

What if we didn't take Brown? Then we're going into the season with a gimpy Salaam and....not much else IMO. Molden and Slaton both look like they are going to help fill some holes. Sure they could have gone DE instead of some of the later round picks they did take, but there has to be somewhere there they like better than who we took, and the chances of Colvin working out were probably better than any late round pick we could have taken. They tried several different people out at DE. None of them worked out. It's not like they ignored it.

Just drafting a position doesn't solve the problem. If the last draft class lives up to their potential then we'll have a lot less holes to fill.

Yes, I know Pappabear, and I have been thinking along those lines. With the problems we have been having at RB, the thought also occurs to me that we let Mendenhall slide. We will shortly find out if that was a mistake or not.

While I understand that we didn't have a net big enough to get all the help we needed, I am a little dissapointed that we didn't get at least one or two more big fish. And the Colvin fiasco was just one of them.

What do ya'll think about DeMarco Murry, sophomore RB at OU, looked pretty strong in the part of game i watched yesterday, does he come out this year or play another year or two before coming out.

What about the Defensive Coordinator for the Hurricanes?

LMAO, think they would trade straight up for Richard Smith?
