Heimdallr Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 If a team cuts a 4th round pick, you know they are bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Bell, the new TE that we just signed was a 4th round pick. Does anyone know anything about him? I thought it was interesting because I just noticed that MyCole Pruitt was cut from the Bears and is on the Bills practice squad now. I was always a fan of Pruitt's. I might like Hodges more than him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started college as a "QB" in college at Oklahoma....playing a bit of the Tebow role at the goal line. Not sure when they switched him to TE. He's athletic though, and I'd guess he's farther along than Hodges in the blocking-type stuff a TE will be asked to do here. Pruitt was a Turner pick, and we moved him off the active roster not long after the OC switch last year, so it's not surprising we showed no interest.

Snake Plissken Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I think Bell scored over 20 TDs at QB before being moved to TE senior year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric dunn Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I wonder if MIN is still lurking looking for a different kicker possibly. Im also curious as to why MIN didnt use a 5th, or 6th, or even use a high 7th to select K Zane Gonzalez. He's going to be a legit kicker for a long time i believe. Would have been nice to take him and not have to worry about a kicker moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Seems to be a common strategy when dealing with late round/undrafted prospects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I really wish Gedeon and Brothers would take a number in the 50s. The 40s just doesn't fit a linebacker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Plissken Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 LB numbers in the 40s is the new trend similar to WRs in the teens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
