    Two biggest concerns:

    1) Can Christensen be a solid NFL starting LT vs. MUCH more talented defenders?

    I guess time will tell if T-Rex arms and inferior competition limit a guy who we need to be a good starting LT to just an average G. Apparently he's very smart and coachable so hopefully he maxs his potential in a hurry.

    2) Can Horn rack up more PDs and INTs than PIs?

    From what I've seen and heard he has got to learn quickly how to be "less obvious" when harassing and mugging receivers. A lot will depend on how much refs are willing to overlook this season . .. hopefully with all these bigger more physical receivers refs will allow more physical play from corners

    If Marshall stays healthy and progresses into the #1 WR that he could/should become almost ALL the rest look like GRAVY quality picks for where they were taken.
    It should be a really fun camp and preseason

    After day one, I wasn't super optimistic...didn't hate it.
    Everything done after that, while at times confusing...I was amazed.

    Biggest steal...NIXON! To get the 3-4 best DT in the draft in the 5th round is simply unbelievable. Shocking how few DT's were drafted this year.

    The Hubbard pick was also a good value pick, allows CMC to hopefully give up some touches and stay healthy. To me, that was a huge underlying need.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Shi Smith stepped right in and did some of the things Samuel did in Brady's offense.

    Yup, and though it won't (and probably shouldn't) happen would love to see the #89 again, fearlessly going across the middle. )
