Hello, Terrie.  Thanks mucho.
Maybe CU will be a GIANT with Eli.

49ers take a WR?

Wow! They wasted a pick on that kid.

Nick Perry USCw LB to GB. The packers missed out. CU is better.

Perry is a DE.  Upshaw played OLB at Bama but is projected as a possible DE in the NFL. There is some question as to CU's lateral agility to drop into pass coverage as an OLB, so he is projected either as a DE in a 4-3 or pass rushing jack LB in a 3-4.

Anyway, different teams have different needs.  We will hear Upshaw's name soon I hope.

NY Giants with Pick No. 32 pick VA Tech RB  David Wilson. 

Trent Richardson did give the RBs a bump in the draft this year, like he predicted.

That's it for tonight.  Picks resume tomorrow.

David Wilson???  Terrible pick!

David Wilson???  Terrible pick!

a real head scratcher.     Picked over Upshaw, R Randle, and 4 others who were invited and were waiting in the green room.  Has to suck to be those guys and not hear their name called, especially for Upshaw watching his teammates go tonight.

I am very proud of Trent, Mark, Dre, and Dant'a. But IMO, the better Bama linebacker and maybe Bama's MVP for the year is still out there. He carried a couple of games on his shoulders because of his immense talent, tenacity and instinct. The Florida and NC games come to mind. He broke people, for crying out loud. I can't believe he hasn't been picked up yet. BAMADCHAMPIONSHIPS is right, someone is going to get a steal.

We will have 1 of every 6 pick in the top 30.
Recruits: join us or fear us.

or not......

No 1st end love for upshaw. Someone is going to get ups haw with a chip on his shoulder. That's a frightening prospect.

You are right.  The great players have their best games on the biggest stage, and Upshaw shined in those games. 

I think Upshaw may have been left out because teams weren't sure what to do with him.  He is a "tweener," as in, his size and speed puts him between a pure defensive end and a LB dropping into coverage.  Drafting him as a defensive end would be hard for a team to do early because Upshaw played LB at Bama.  But Hightower is right, Upshaw will make his name known once he puts pads on.

I think a team would do well to keep him at OLB. He proved at Bama that he could drop back into pass coverage. In fact, he always had a nose for the ball. Critics said what you pointed out, plus they were concerned about him having short arms. What?  Anyway, time will tell. I just know he has to be disappointed not to have been taken in the first round.
