Shanahan: Williams is a natural for zone-blocking scheme

[warpaint]

He also has his High School and College Teammates to get him focused. I grew up near Longveiw and like any small town in Texas their is a real since of family and Im glad he has 3 teammates from their so his transition goes smooth.

Texans make the best football players.

Is he really going to be around that much? I'm more worried about Forestor not succeeding as our line coach and then having us going out and getting Tom Cable as our O-Line coach. God knows he isn't going to survive after this season. The Rolando McClain pick is the first sign that a competent person is running the Raiders.

Yeah F**K Dallas. You seen they picked Dez Bryant(Texas Failure), just because Randy Moss was past on so long ago . Talking about having blinders on S.Bradford and D.Bryant didnt even play this year but they go so high go figure.

Arizona is the only team I've really been able to see that stocked up on pass catchers and received any real benefit. Dez Bryant is basically a locker room time bomb. Now personally I consider Ray Lewis a bomb disposal expert so if Baltimore had selected him then that would have been a great pick, but put him in a Dallas locker room that just got over not having T.O. there and you hopefully have a locker room implosion. Of course if he develops it'll be dangerous for us, but I'm hoping for another Charles Rogers.

Thank you. I know that I hope a lot of crappy lines I come up with get quoted but I was really proud of that one.

Is that because he jumps on the pile after a tackle has already been made?

No, it's more of a reference to his ability to command respect in the locker room. Personally I have never heard of the Ravens locker room blowing up and it's not like they haven't brought in questionable characters. I seriously doubt a guy like Dez Bryant would get very far with his "diva" routine had he gone to Baltimore. Dallas on the other hand all but seems to encourage such behavior, even though at this point it might be unintentional.

It's very similar to the level of respect I command around here in the Warpath, especially in the Locker Room part of the forum. I mean when's the last time you saw someone challenge my status as the alpha dog?

I like it how very few people are mentioning that basically Jones has given up on Roy Williams and we can call that trade a colossal failure.

Yeah, Jerry Jones just needs one more stamp on his draft card to qualify for Matt Millen status.

Best fits
Here are the five players who landed with teams that give them the best opportunity to maximize what they do best.

1. Gerald McCoy, DT, Tampa Bay (No. 3 overall)
2. Trent Williams, OT, Washington (No. 4)
3. Maurkice Pouncey, G/C, Pittsburgh (No. 18)
4. Bryan Bulaga, OT, Green Bay (No. 23)
5. Dan Williams, DT, Arizona (No. 26)

i really think green bay got a great player in bulaga. i never really wanted him as our LT but i think at RT he def helps A-rogers a ton.
