Well, the only other FB worth a shtein that year was Troy Fleming.

Tapeh was highly regarded as the best FB in his draft class. Give him time.

link?

just to check it out... I pulled out the TSN draft guide from that year and they had Tapeh listed as the 4th rated FB in that draft.

I think the birds will take a fullback early the second day of the draft ;)

I remember hearing that they may have had some interest in David Kirtman from USC. The reports are on him that he's a good special teamer that's a great reciever out of the backfield. The cons? He can't block.

I'm still a bit dissapointed they never took a look at Gerald Sowell in FA.

Yeah, I don't think it would be a very good pick...

He may not even get drafted honestly...
