www.stampedeblue.com/2018/4/10/17219410/henry-anderson-slims-down-for-role-in-colts-new-defenseHenry Anderson is an interesting player. As a rookie in 2015, Anderson was off to a great start before Kendall Langford tripped and fell into his right knee, tearing his ACL and ending his season just nine games in. The road back took time, and when he finally was back, it took more time still to get that knee to 100 percent. Before that could happen, he tweaked the left knee. It isn’t unusual for an athlete to sustain an injury on the opposite side of the body because of favoring an injured limb, but it was still crushing to finish the season banged up yet again. When the 2017 season began, Anderson was something of an afterthought. The signings of Johnathan Hankins and Al Woods overshadowed him, and he was a part of the deepest position group on the roster. The season started slowly for him, but he began to heat up toward the midpoint. From week seven through week nine he notched 10 tackles, 2 sacks, and a forced fumble as he really began rounding into form. Then, once again, his season was ended prematurely. A freak laryngeal fracture was the culprit, but the result was the same. Now, Anderson faces another tough obstacle. While his health is not an issue, he will be adapting to a completely new scheme defensively, one that focuses on speed and aggressiveness to get after opposing quarterbacks.

Sobered up and and watched a few USC games and Darnold interviews today, good likeable kid and I like how he throws on the move. I guess we got lucky and for that I should be grateful but I just hope he can clean the ball security up because that’s what’s turning me off I think. What’s turning you off is a stale marriage. It’s Friday’s and we have a qb. Enough with the British whining. :monocle drop:

Parry Nickerson is a really good pick. Slot corner with a nose for the ball. Eventual replacement for Buster Skrine. And the sooner the better. Jets getting a lot of love on twitter for their 2 6ths. Nickerson and Fatukasi. Love the Nickerson pick. Don't know a lot about Fatukasi -- just seems like overkill. We have added 3 DLs in the last 24 hours.

With that last 6th rounder could they take Darnold's #1 WR at USC Deontay Burnett?

So our draft is over and we didn't take one OL. That concerns me a lot. I have no problem with any of the players we took, but how can we continue to ignore the second most important position in the game?
edit: just 'practically' over

You can't pass on better players just to say you tool a linemen. If you don't think the guys that are available can play, you don't spend a draft pick on them. I think the quality Olineman were in rounds 1-3. It wasn't a great tackle draft from the start.

Look back at that 2nd round -- 4 of the first 7 picks were interior OL. By the time or 3rd came around, the pickings were slm for guys who could impact 2018.

But as a Mac fan, I'm more so being critical of his whole body of work.
