His NFL.com profile compares him to Kevan Barlow. Yay.

Sporting News compared Kolb to McNair. Double Yay.

I fell asleep last night and am very glad to wake up to at least one piece of good news.

Hunt has value at #90, even if the PSU haters disagree.

yep...finally, the big back they've needed.

and now i can get an eagles jersey with the name hunt on the back.

Quote90. Philadelphia — Tony Hunt, RB Penn State: A good power runner who can punch the ball through the line between the tackles, he was always underappreciated as a collegian because he wasn't flashy. While he's not going to bust off any big runs and he's not a special back who'll go to a Pro Bowl, he'll be a good number two, change-of-pace back to carry the ball for tough yards late in the game.

I like this pick better than the first two. Hunt could be the perfect compliment for Bwest.

It's obvious they'll have to run 30-40 times a game to help this defense. Their best value pick of day one, no doubt.

I actually liked Tony Hunt at PSU because he is a tough dood. A fun college RB to watch because of that at times. I just think he is an overachiever who has no business being drafted in the 3rd round. He is a 6th round flyer IMO. I cant see him ever being anything more than an average to below average backup in the NFL. Those kind of RB's are a dime a dozen. Hey, I hope I am wrong, but I am going to call it as I see it regardless of college.

listen to this murp guy

I still would have prefered Michael Bush.

I went to Penn State. I heart the Eagles. I like Tony Hunt. I hate this pick.

Although I wouldn't say I "hate" it, I am not pumped about the pick except for sentimental reasons.

IGY and I said the same thing yesterday. He needs 15-20 carries to be effective. Where the hell is gonna get that many carries in this offense?

hunt · April 29, 2007, 10:24:50 AM

they already have a backup rb with injury concerns so i imagine that's why they stayed away from m.bush.

yup

and ill say it again...hes not a back up rb....hes either good enough to be in the league as a 30 carry guy or hes not in the league at all
