Gibson looked very good at the combine-he caught my eye and I wrote his name down.  THat is about all I know, but I am a bit excited about this.

Yeah I saw that too but I don't think we have any chance of him falling. Good to look at though.

Gibson has the quickness to catch anyone off the line, but he gets overpowered a lot. Could be a decent project with some work and a good strength program.

 

I will say he got bigger and better as he played.

I've been wondering the type of reaction it would garner if we grabbed two OTs in the draft...but both were past the 2nd round.

Yes please in the mid rounds, good LT prospect

[PanthersUnited]

The more late round OTs the better, that's exactly where I want us to draft O line, in later rounds. I hate this year's group of 1st round OTs, they are all just meh to me and don't excite me whatsoever.

Actually IMO you very wrong, this years draft class is talented, and the 1st round prospect should have a instant impact. If we are willing to take the same risk on defense players then we should do the same for Offense players. We knew that Ealy hasd the talent, but it would take some time to acclimate to the NFL. This principal also should go for the OT who can have impact as rookie but will continue to grow throughout the years.

Well I guess another question given the team strategy then is--Are there are any OTs beyond the first capable of making an impact in this class? You had some last year even though it wasn't deep at all.  Britt most notably.

 

DG has set himself up to take his top guy at each pick.  Could there be a player there for us that comes out of the tackle group in the mid-rounds with the likes of D. Smith, Crisp, D. Williams, Thompson, Gibson, etc.?  I think there could.

GO HOKIES!!!

Hokies have had a VERY bad Oline this past season

Guy gets rocked back everything someone bull rushes him.  Blocks with his head down, looking at his feet, a lot.  But quick and athletic.  Maybe he can play WR
