We were doing so good with Jason Brown then we take a 250lb fulback in the 5th when weve already got Ricard and Mughelli plus about 4 TEs? I dont really agree with this pick but hopefully Ozzie has something in mind with him. I still feel like we need a DB(CB or FS), LB for depth and a 3rd string QB. However i think either the 3rd QB or the LB issue will be addressed with undrafted FAs. However i realy hope we can still pick up some sort of DB with the 2nd to last pick of the 6th round!

I think Green was one of the best prospects that we came away with. He is multi-talented back who Fassel could utilise really effectively. Ovie Mughelli is pretty much a blocking fullback. If Alan Ricard gets injured, then now with these two together, we could go a long way to filling that gap.

Green could easily become a useful weapon for us, similar to goal line backs Zack Crockett and Leroy Hoard.

thanks for the info mic79e. Im not sure, but i think Green is around 255lbs right?

He's a little bit less. You're right that we didn't need to add a fullback, unless there's something we don't know! But I think this was just a "best player avilable pick", pure and simple.

Green is a guy that I liked the look of only recently. But he could turn out to be very productive, if he can stay with us.

i just think that because we use our TEs so much in blocking that im not sure that we can afford to keep 8 TEs and FBs. Right now weve got Todd Heap, Terry Jones, Darnell Dinkins, Dan Wilcox, Trent Smith, Alan Ricard, Ovie Mughelli and now Justin Green. I think atleast 2 will have to go come september 11th.

The guys that I think are most at risk are Darnell Dinkins, Trent Smith, Ovie Mughelli and Justin Green. I put Terry Jones Jnr and Daniel Wilcox ahead of those guys because they are more proven. But the competition is great, and who ever survives should be pretty good.
