2015 NFL Draft Thread

QuoteStrengths
Looks good on the hoof. Has desired height, weight and speed. Smart and loves the game of football. Scouts say the staff at Texas raves about the way Hicks lifts, prepares for games and takes care of his body. Has football character in spades. Not a thumper but a tackle finisher -- won't miss often. Can glide and chase as plays bounce outside. Has burst to leverage outside runs and cut off angles against mobile quarterbacks. Showed more discipline and improvement after a year under head coach Charlie Strong.

Holy crap, this has Chip all over it

NFL.com, my only source for draft news, projected him as a 4th or 5th rounder. So, boo?

About right...

A friend of mine is a huge Longhorns guy. Just texted me

"Good solid pick. Philly will like him. Underachiever"

Igy - accused of sexual assault! Doesn't just pick saints.

Though maybe it shows his fetish for injured players outweighs character flags.
