DG needs to just trade the compensatory pick to the Browns for Thomas and stop all this talk of drafting an OT in this draft. Because even the projected 1st rd OT don't look any better than what we already have.

Yup, a veteran. Cam needs veterans.

Troy is not a small school.

I believe Troy played several SEC teams.

I don't give a damn who they got paid to play. It's fuging Troy.

Troy isn't some D2 school, it's in the Sun Belt. They were actually in the top 25 for a few weeks and lost to Clemson by only 6 points.

Someone posted a video on here at one point. It was a lot more impressive than Robinson or Dawkins, and he seems much more suited to LT than Ramczyk.

I'd give him some serious consideration in the second round.

If they'd move Thomas for that comp pick I'd make that trade with no hesitation.

Only 2 years left on his current contract.

Would need to work out an extension.

It's one thing to bargain bin for free agents, but why do we have to do the same thing with draftees?  If this guy is drafted in the 5th-7th rounds, fine.  Yet don't pick this guy up in the 2nd.

I know it's not gospel, but Walter football has got him going top of second.

What makes you think the guy is "bargain bin?"

Scouts don't think this guy is a 5-7 round talent.

Here we go with this poo. It's like we don't learn from drafting small school linemen. The last two we drafted worked out so well. 

We have had two WR from USC, A running back from Louisville, A WR from Colorado, a Tight End for Stanford and I am sure if I went back through our history I would find more of big named schools players that didn't pan out either.  

If I remember with one of them the talent was there just he couldn't stay healthy.  In fact both were injury prone.  I am pretty sure that had nothing to do with them being from a small school.

Should there be extra research on a small school player.  I would say yes but to drop them from your board because they didn't play big time football isn't a good idea either.

For the love of god our best DE went to Troy. Argument over
