We'll see. I bet a few others would have played much, much more, if selected at #13.

Man, Keim is on fire! So many of us had Dorian Johnson in our Day 2 mocks and with good reason. He is the most pro ready guard in this draft. This allows the coaches to move Evan Boehm back to center where he belongs.
157 and 179 in the fifth.
heard his conference call and finally a guy who speaks a good and clear english
This is the Cards' choice I like the best. He is awesome. I had him and Lamp even. He was health flagged for a liver issue (my people indicate it's controllable). He never missed a start in 4 years of college. He can pass block and he's a pile driver when run blocking. His has longer arms than Doc Ock. He always gets a hand on a rusher and is great at redirecting them. He is a boulder when anchoring. He's been playing on the left side but he's likely fine moving to the right. It wouldn't shock me if he starts game one.
He excels at run blocking. He pulls effortlessly and always squares up before contact. He expects to get to the second level, throwing aside his level one guy and re-engaging with vengeance. He can occasionally run past people but far more often chooses the right target. This guy is a huge plus for the David Johnson. Once they get used to blocking/running style this will be a powerful combo. Dorian will start for a long time. It's a huge break to save the money of getting him this late.
He is somewhat susceptible to spin moves, so he's better staying at guard where his mass makes this move less of a threat. He's so well conditioned he can likely even add some weight without losing agility. Tony Pauline (good evaluator, former NFL scout) had him as the number one guard.
Great post. Thanks.
Just looking at his photo verifies how long his arms are and how well-conditioned he is. Sounds like a great pick.
I wonder if they will name the play where Dorian directly blocks for David simply, DSquared.DJ is going to open up holes for DJ!

What's his Medical? I would have taken Jake Butt if that's the case.I wanted us to grab a QB, but if Johnson is OK medically, we gotta steal.
No gray area picking Dorian
And don't forget DJ Humphries. Whole lotta DJ going on.I wonder if they will name the play where Dorian directly blocks for David simply, DSquared.
