Bowl games & players to watch

[redsk1]

I do have a VA bias but heregoes my thoughts on Chris Long....

I would absolutely love to see Long as a redskin but Long is a top 5 pick and we're not going to be there. I want to give him props anyhow.

I'm not even sure he got any sacks vs Texas Tech but did anyone watch the game? Double teamed, triple teamed...doesn't matter...he goes after it. Again i don't know the stats but the guy must have batted down 3 or 4 passes. Unbelievable motor and strength. He probably racked up 7-10 QB hurries. No one could block the guy. I think they threw the ball 55+times and he looked like he was better in the 2nd half.

How about run defense you ask? Fills gaps like no other. A great tackler.

I know this is a moot point but the guy is unbelievable to watch and is going to be a great nfl player imo.

BTW...lots of great cb talent at VA Tech. Watch Flowers tonight..he's testing the waters and is projected in the 2nd round. Bud Foster sais he's the most talented CB he's every coached. Foster has coached alot of nfl cb's too including Deangelo Hall. Watch their LBs too...very talented.

Long was all over the place v. T. TEch. He'll be a good one, but even if he drops he'll be gone by mid 1st round (I know he's a top 5 pick now).

Another UVA guy we could get is that guard Albert (forgot his first name), he just declared for the draft. He's a junior but is 23 after spending a year in prep. 3rd team all american
