Possibly the 2nd coming of Tommy Vardell, another big Stanford back who Belichick drafted in the 90's

He's a top 10 Defensive Tackle...but what you have to remember is those beasts in the middle are hard to come by. His stock has risen to be a second round dude and he is just an absolute freak. Most of the other guys that are in front of him in the rankings are not two gappers and chew up a center and guard on every single down. They are excellent one and maybe two gap guys that are not going to be asked to be a nose tackle in a 3-4 defense:

Suh - a possibility in a 4-3 and 3-4, but will need a bigger LDE to make this happen
McCoy - DE in a 3-4 defense
Price - only a 4-3 tackle
Dan Williams - Legit 4-3 and 3-4 tackle
Terrance Cody - Um, yes.
Jared Odrick - see McCoy
Lamarr Houston - only a 4-3 tackle

As you can see, there are really only 2 very capable guys that can swing that position and both will probably be taken before the Bills draft. Cam will be in the new ranking this weekend and is very highly sought after by 3-4 defenses.

I took Oakland as one of my teams this time and after I picked in the second round I looked back. Brady picked the same position (OT) for the first round and the same player (Brandon Spikes) for the second round. Kind of funny...

You both think Morrison's days in Oakland are numbered? He has been highly productive in silver and black.

Productive in streaks. If you watch him from game to game he is hit or miss. He makes just as many bad plays as good ones.

I'll gladly admit I don't watch many Raider games. But his stats look good on paper, 110+ tackles per year and hasn't missed a game in 5 years....

You're right, I just checked his weekly scoring production in one of my leagues...6 games under 10 pts last season is hit or miss in that league. Sorry I don't have him on any of my 4 teams and he's not on my radar so I don't follow the guy much. Just looked at his end of year stat line before I opened my big mouth!

Yeah I hear you. I really haven't watched that much either but a couple years ago I started seeing Raiders fans on a message board complain about Morrison a lot and I looked into more. They were right...very inconsistent.

Jared Veldheer OT Hillsdale, Dan? That guy looks more like a linebacker than an offensive lineman!

He is a beast...still very raw though but with his size he could be dominant and who better to develop him than Indy???

I'll accept that answer. But since your response exceeded 74 words, you received a 0.25 point deduction from the Canadian judge.

In all seriousness, thanks for the breakdown. This draft has a lot of big men available in top 50-60 so I was curious to see how high he ranked in your eyes.
