2025 6th round pick is Hayden Conner G

[az jam]

Good value for 6th round.

 

[Goldfield]

Sounds like a Center.

Not at all athletic, so major improvement is unlikely. He probably won’t be much good at pulling which is Cards scheme. His top is a backup as he’s ferocious in pass protection. Therefore he can be pressed into service if needed. He’s a hard worker. Lack of athleticism hurts his ability to really help with run blocking. Often misses target or fails to hit them squarely.

He has a 7.5 RAS. That's well above average athleticism.

Impressive young man. Worth a watch.

One of the things I like about the draft is learning about some impressive young people.

Watch the video above and you will come away impressed and rooting for the guy.

My buddy who is a Texas ex and follows the program very closely says this guy is going to surprise. Not just a camp body. Said we will like the safety too.

 

[Brak]

Great, now TWO guys that half the board can call "CONNOR" lol

 

[Snakester]

NFL Draft buzz.com has him as 7th best pass protector in draft. Listed best position as left guard. Will look at film this week to see what we have in him.

Can’t likely develop to a regular player. Backup is ceiling and a reach at that.

He still gives off Lyle Seindlein vibes to this Horns fan & I have no idea why lol

When I see “lack of athleticism” at an o-line position I think he ultimately needs an nfl caliber training program.

Sounds like a guy who can swing anywhere on the interior line. Down to give the kid a try

He was at Texas. I think he already had an NFL caliber training program.

A 6'6" guard... hmm...

If we attach a periscope to Kyler's helmet will the league pitch a fit?

 

[BirdGangThing]

im more than cool with how the first 3 rounds shook out - i don't grade day 3s because im not that deep on college

we do still need a guard however - monti tried to upgrade in free agency then went bpa in the first 3 rounds

I liked this pick. You get someone who has all of those starts playing big time college ball. In the SEC which is basically semipro. I like him a lot more than I liked Adams. He can be the starter if Brown goes down.
