I mentioned Ilaoa before the draft as a guy I liked in the 6th-7th round.  Good pick.  My guess is they either carry 4 RBs, or stash him on IR for the year.

Who am I kidding, Buck's gonna be on the IR.

RENO IS ALREADY NOT ON THE TEAM.

It's sad he lasted on the team long enough to even reach UFA status. He should have been cut years ago.

I actually liked Ilaoa, but there isnt a need for him with Hunt already drafted.  We all know Andy will go back to the 15 runs again until the 9th game when he realizes he needs balance.

how could they pass on Brandon Siler though he was a top inside linebacker prospect and should have went round two or three and fell to seven, they needed to snag  him up

Keep asking "how could they" and your head will explode.

He looks fun to watch and he doesn't shy away from contact. He could maybe develop into something.

Its sad that I'm most excited about a 7th round pick.

yeah he really looks like a high energy guy which is a term thrown around a lot but with him you can see it in his play. he likes to take the contact and shed off would be tacklers.

He somewhat reminds me of a shorter and fatter Duce Staley. He seems to have the same running style and similar field vision.

Yep that about sums us up.

What i liked seeing was him shedding blockers from good programs.  We needed a Samoan/Tongan to replace Reno's spot, he filled that need.
