Arian Foster got 2nd round projection

Creer, Vereen, Hardesty and Poole. That's still pretty good depth at TB.

Agreed. The O-Line is always a bigger part to running, all if those guys can find a hole, they'll be fine. Plus they can all bounce outside better than Foster, though their qualities as a "check-down" will be exposed as we'll have an inexperienced QB under center. That would probably be the biggest loss. Plus Foster was a decent/good pass blocker.

Foster was a damn good pass blocker.

The entire O-line returns next season as well
 
Vlad seemed to be a good run blocker. I think if we land McClain or Page you may see a freshman on the O-Line next year. We would def miss Foster catching the ball out of the backfield.
 
There will not be a freshman starting on the OL next year. All five starters from the Outback game will be back. Even if Parker went, we still dont see a freshman OL starter.

I don't think Parker will go. I hope not, at least.

If anything, I think his asset that will be hardest to fill is the fact he was a good pass blocker and safety valve for Ainge. On designed RB screens, I would rather have Hardesty or Creer.
 
I didnt say they would start, but if we land either of those two guys, Im willing to be that they see significant playing time

Wouldn't Darris Sawtelle get a look before two incoming Fr? Rivals had him as the #10 OT in the nation last year.
 
good point, but McClain and Page both seem to be physically ready to play. You need the road graders fresh in the 4th.
 
If there is any position that really doesn't concern me, it is the tackles, guards and the center. They're coming together fairly well as a group, IMO.
 
I think that's probably true....until the combine. His forty time will kill his draft stock.

Right, because I'm sure the guys who rated him, the guys who make their living by scouting and rating college players, probably have no clue of Arian's speed. :p

Looks like Freak has finally snapped. He can no longer restrain his desire to be logical.

5 sec 40's wont get you very far in the League
 
Everytime I see this thread title, I still find it hard to believe. But if AF can get 2nd round money now, I would tell him to go for it. I surely can't see him ever going higher.
