Eugene Monroe

 

[Dr. Jones]

Pick # 8 - Jacksonville Jaguars


Eugene Monroe - OT - Virginia

Analysis Positives: Prototypical left tackle build -- good height, long arms and a thick lower body. ... Good feet, and keeps them moving in pass protection to mirror his man. ... Rarely gets beat, handling bull rushes as well as most inside and outside moves with ease. ... Keeps his balance very well. ... Blocks down inside often to take defensive tackles out of the play. ... Able to neutralize linebackers at the second level. ... Shifts to tight end on some strong-side run plays in order to use his strength and athleticism. ... Blocks through the whistle, often blocking two or three jerseys on one play when on the move.

Negatives: A bit bigger in the middle than you'd like. ... Tends to catch ends as they rush in instead of using his punch to keep them off balance. ... Must improve his awareness of inside blitzers or late rushers when plays break down. ... Could get to second level or moving targets a little more quickly and sustain blocks better in the open field.

[Shogun]

Great pick by the Jaguars. They need help on the line.

 

[Billy Bob]

He won't, Jaguars won't pass Crabtree.. they need a WR..

[binkar]

Wow... Crabtree might be a 49er.

 

[sportznutt]

Do any of these picks change what COULD happen to the Cards at 31?

 

[sportznutt]

Packers need a WR.

 

[anks106]

Crap...9ers are gonna get Crabtree!

I'm officially worried

 

[Timm Rosenbach]

Please Packers take Crabtree.

I dont want to see this kid twice a season for the next 5-10 years.

Crap...9ers are gonna get Crabtree!

Let them, they still need a QB to throw to Crab if he slides to the whiners

 

[bg7brd]

Will Philly trade up to get Crabtree?

 

[AsUdUdE]

OK.. Its starting.. I am about to be SICK....

 

[Unsterblich856]

Packers need a WR..........Crabtree.

Actually, the Packers have the 2nd best WR corps (us being first of course) in the entire league. They run 5-wide like half of the time.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Crabtree Officall A Niner!

 

[azdad1978]

Raji to GB

 

[anks106]

OK.. Its starting.. I am about to be SICK....

I've moved from worried to scared..

 

[azsportsfan01]

Its gonna be B.J. Raji

 

[sportznutt]

[Shogun]

BJ Raji to Green Bay. They finally got their nose tackle.

 

[bg7brd]

Raji make a lot of sense

 

[sportznutt]

Any chance they pass on Crabtree?
