Dan Shonka from Ourlads.com is the guest this week. Shonka was a scout for the Eagles, Redskins and Chiefs and has worked in player personnel for 39 years. Shonka has plenty of insight on the 2012 draft.
-Texas A&M QB Ryan Tannnehill is “a second-round draft choice” and “a developmental quarterback” who has “skyrocketed with the media people, the herd followers … his anticipation and decision-making are off.”
-University of Mempis DT and rising star Dontari Poe is a “gold-medal workout guy but a bronze-medal player.”
-Trent Richardson (pictured) “is a very powerful man who looks like the Incredible Hulk" and just flat-out better than his Crimson Tide predecessor Mark Ingram, a first-round pick of the Saints in 2011.
-The Browns can’t afford to pass on Richardson at No. 4. “Colt McCoy needs some help … he’s a very smart, hardworking, has all the things you’re looking for in an NFL quarterback.”
-USC offensive tackle Matt Kalil is the best pick for the Vikings at No. 3.
-The 2012 has six blue-chip players: Andrew Luck, Robert Griffin III, Kalil, Richardson, Morris Claiborne and Justin Blackmon)
