NFL Coaches Rate OLinemen

[ncdolfan]

Apologize if this has been posted previously - I did not see it.

Interesting article from Pat Kirwan at nfl.com - he got input on some of the top OL candidates from 7 different OL coaches throughout the league. As everyone would suspect, Gallery was a clear #1. Somewhat surprising was that Shawn Andrews was not the clear #2 (Justin Smiley right there with him) and that Vernon Carey was not getting a lot of love either.

This is a great article. In particular, check out a lineman named Shane Olivea and what the coaches said about him. He might be an interesting pick for us in the 4th round.

Olivea sounds like a a decent RG prospect not necessarily better than what we have, but in the 5th he w/b a decent choice if we do not go OL eariler; and he is from right near where I used to live on LI.

Just goes to show how weak the O-Line is today.

That was a good read and very close to what we've been saying here.Not surprised that Smiley is that close to Andrews and higher than Carey.

Ozzy rules!!
