Bronco Billy Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Polk & Billy Winn still undrafted. That's just midboggling, since 90% of the guys being drafted now are going to be burger flippers in 6 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just midboggling, since 90% of the guys being drafted now are going to be burger flippers in 6 months. Winn went at the end of the 6th, but nosing around on Polk, I saw people ranking him as a high 2nd rounder/top-5 RB prospect. Did this kid get caught with a live boy or a dead girl? What happened?

At this point where it's a crapshoot at best, why wouldn't you roll the dice on a guy that has shown some serious skills, explosion, etc... Weird.

Weird. Nosing around for this, no one has quite pinned down the problem - back or hip. But I did find out that he has a hilariously great nickname - "The Polkswagen" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABearWithFurniture Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Seems to me the NFL in general is a degenerative health issue for all players... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but the problem with your thinking is teams want* their players to degenerate AFTER they've cut them, not before they draft them. * - well, maybe not "want" - I'm sure most NFL coaches/GMs/etc would be thrilled if all former players lived long, healthy, and happy lives into their 90s.

Chavez Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 AJ Hawk is about to be put on notice. They have him listed as OLB, but the writeup I read made him sound like a 4-3 OLB/3-4 ILB. So yeah, nice knowin' ya, AJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was primarily an OLB in the 4-3, but played a little in the middle. His size at 237, and his propensity to murder the running game makes him a perfect fit for Hawks spot.

RC94 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I guess Polk is either seriously injured or has a degenerative condition (which some are speculating). I thought he had the talent to be a day 2 pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
