From everything I've seen, Baker is sold, but unspectacular, RB. Looks to be good all around.

After hitting on Turner and Sproles way back when, AJ has been pretty poor in bringing in mid-late round backs.

Jordan Todman (6th) - didn't make final 53
Gartrell Johnson (4th) - didn't make final 53
Marcus Thomas (5th) - didn't make final 53

Anyways, our final draft looks pretty solid. Early round picks used on defensive depth that can become starters down the road. Then we got a TE who can be groomed to replace Gates down the road, 2 OL to provide depth and follow the path of guys like Greene, Mruczowski, Clary, etc, and finally a runningback who will be given every chance to win the 3rd spot, and even backup unless a veteran is brought in (and I have to elieve one will be before camp starts).

1. Melvin Ingram, OLB, South Carolina
2. Kendall Reyes, DE, UConn
3. Brandon Taylor, S, LSU
4. Ladarius Green, TE, Louisiana-Lafayette
5. Johnnie Troutman, OG, Penn State
7. David Molk, C, Michigan
7. Edwin Baker, RB, Michigan State

No Pac12 players Sad

Hey guy, solid draft! Have to say you guys really did well. I love the Molk pick. He's really going to be something for you IMO.
