I’m very sorry about the turn of events for your party, 93.
As you know, I was a big Winovich fan, too. But a team can’t get ‘em all. Henderson was a good get, too, so it’s not as if they blew the pick as in years gone by.
I think Gaines will grow on you. I’m very happy with that pick for our Rams. VERY happy.
I suspect that you may be onto something re Edwards. I think he slipped to us because of playing through injury and I love a little nastiness in an OL player.
As to Scott? Yeah, probably strictly a ST pick. But Fassel reportedly described him as the best he’s ever rated. That’s some serious high praise, indeed. Possibly will be a standout on all 4 ST units. Definitely worth a very late 7th. He’s likely to give us a handful of big plays in his first year alone. An A+ pick for a late 7th, IMO.
I love this entire draft and consider it possibly Snead’s best, considering he started at 31 and lacked a 2nd. But I think that history will show that the Gaines and Scott picks will be looked at by teams and they will be asking themselves “how did we let such players slip through our fingers”.
