Seems like Terrance Mitchell might have been the highest rated guy that we drafted in the 7th. Some publications said 3rd or 4th.

I would have guessed Bishop or Dixon.

Hopefully Mitchell and Dixon stick at least as backups. If we get nothing else out of this, if we can get good DB depth from the end of this draft, it could at least prevent us from using resources in other years on the position.
We need to free up picks to trade up for Mariotta.

I don't want any part of Marcus Mariota. He's just another guy to add to the long list of zone read option QB busts.

To make a prioty UDFA signing like Copeland kind of looks to me like the 2 TE offense was a one year thing. I might be reading too much into it though.

B4ian Clarke is a nice find too. Some nice finds here. Washington as well.

Unless the draft tracker is broken, not a single player from the University of Texas was drafted this year.

Holy shat!

I doubt that's ever happened before.


Edit: ESPN has an article up saying this was the first time since 1937 that a Longhorn wasn't drafted.

Makes me want him more. Johnny Samoan.
Why on Earth are you interested in a guy who has shit mechanics, can't read defenses, plays exclusively out of the shotgun, rarely goes through his progressions, and comes from an option based system? We know how this story ends. They fail.

Why do you care who I like?

I was trolling more than anything, but proceed.

Because if you want him on our team, then we all suffer from that fucking horrifically terrible player. You may continue to troll now.

Maybe, but I doubt you know enough about Hitchens to make that call.
Good point. I don't. But, from everything I have read after the fact lead me to that analysis.
