[Mr. Scot]

Everybody remember this?

 

I was laughing my ass off at the time, and I probably wasn't alone

I wasn't watching live, but remember hearing about it and laughing my @$$ off. How TF do you not turn in a name?

I remember that one dude either last year or the year before… wouldn’t stop talking for like 4 minutes . The drinks took over.

I thought this was going to be a Matt Kalil thread.

Apparently that's what Kevin Seifert's story is about.

Haven't read it yet but I plan to. I have the same question

The trade was done with 30 seconds left. Minnesota called it in, ravens say they tried but couldn't reach the league representative doing trades at the draft.

I recall watching that, almost in disbelief.

 

Now, I'm not calling Ozzie a fibber here, but he very well could be fibbing.

There was a Falcons troll on the board at the time who, right after Gross was picked, posted "swing and a miss".

I don't remember who he thought we should have picked but obviously, he was wrong

you never fully appreciate how good he was until you had to sit through Kalil, Bell, Erving and every other disaster in between

Oher was pretty damn good for us before that concussion derailed his career. Not Jordan Gross but plenty competent.

I did.

There are very few players throughout the years that I just simply didn't worry about.  Gross, Kalil 1, Peppers, Bradberry, etc...

Guys who showed up, did their jobs, week in and week out.
