Wasn't Levy Adcock graded pretty highly?

 

[gmabel830]

I know they brought in Ryan Davis for a visit.. I don't think Gerrelle Robinson of ASU was drafted, he might be another one to keep on the radar.

 

[Cards Czar]

RT- Levy Adcock – OK St.
¾ DE - Matt Conrath – Virginia
¾ OLB – Brett Roy – Nevada
¾ OLB – Ryan Davis – Bethune-Cookman
¾ OLB - Brandon Lindsey – Pittsburgh
¾ OLB - Delano Johnson - Bowie St.
¾ OLB – Brandon Broughton - TCU
P - Shawn Powell – FSU
P Drew Butler – Georgia
SS- Duke Ihenacho – San Jose State
SS – Sean Richardson - Vanderbilt
SILB – Chris Galippo – USC
SILB – Jerry Franklin - Arkansas

 

[Solar7]

Adcock should be a major priority. Again, I'd like to bring in Burfict, but I don't see it happening.

 

[Cardiac]

Thanks Chopper. I say bring in all your listed OLBers, DE's listed.

Since you and K9 have been pimping Adcock bring him in as well.

Polk has the knee concern so who else do you have?

 

[Monty]

Burfict will most likely go to the Ravens if he goes undrafted. His agent has been saying for awhile that Burfict really wants to play for them.

 

[gmabel830]

I hope the FSU or UGA punters are high on our phone call list!

I forgot about the Punters, definitely one of those. Should see someone to challenge at SILB.

We need a couple of RB's, who else you got?

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

Burfict will most likely go to the Ravens if he goes undrafted. His agent has been saying for awhile that Burfict really wants to play for them.

One of the few places he could go and actually improve. Maybe going undrafted will spark something in him to grow up -- hopefully anyways.

 

[Monty]

Polk has the knee concern so who else do you have?

Polk had the knee injury during an August practice last year. After surgery he put up the following numbers:

293 rushes, 1488 yrds, 12 tds and was named a 1st team All Pac 12 in a conference with several top RB's.

I can see the concern in bringing in another RB with some injury problem in the past, but he is the best RB still available and would be worth more than a gamble as an UDFA.

 

[Monty]

Cross Kevin Beachum of your list, he just got drafted by the Steeler's.

 

[splitsecond]

I can't believe Polk didn't get drafted. I know he had a garbage combine, but there were heisman talks about him at one point. He has the potential to be an Arian Foster type pickup with work and the right coach/scheme.

To add to that Polk brings more than the average RB package. He is an excellent pass blocker, picks up blitzes better than any RB I've seen this year and is an excellent catcher out of the backfield.

 

[Mitch]

Great job, Chopper. Thank you! My appreciation to you for your excellent efforts! Glad we are on the same team.

 

[gmabel830]

I don't study these things in detail or anything, but here's a few guys that caught my eye when skimming through the list of available players at the end of the draft:

Jeff Fuller - WR - TXAM
Gerrell Robinson - WR - ASU
James Brown - G/T - Troy
Chase Minnifield - CB - Virginia
Cliff Harris - CB - Oregon
Matt Conrath - DE/OLB - Virginia
Donte Paige-Moss - DE/OLB - N Carolina
Brandon Lindsey - OLB - Pitt
Loni Fongupo - DT - BYU
Marcus Fortson - DT - Miami
Vontaze Burfict - ILB - ASU
Drew Butler - P - Georgia
Shawn Powell - P - Florida State
Chris Polk - RB - Washington (injury concern)
Matt Reynolds - OT - BYU
Levy Adcock - OT - Okla St
Michael Brewster - C - Ohio State

 

[CardsFan88]

Vontaze undrafted is official.

I'd hate to have to live up to what the other Cliff Harris did.

I'd rather bring in Vontaze and I've been off the Burfict bandwagon for more than two years now. If you can put up with Robinson, you might get a decent (but brainless) performance every time his contract comes up.

Cards brought Robinson in for a workout/visit, and someone posted a tweet from one of the local talking heads earlier saying Cards liked Robinson over Criner. Wouldn't be shocked if we brought him in.

 

[Monty]

Chase Minnifield is a guy who could've gone in the first/2nd round if it wasnt for an ankle injury that made him struggle real bad in the last four games for Virginia.

Someone could have a massive steal on their hands if he is able to recover fully from that injury.

[Monty]

For the record: Cards have 69 players on the roster at the moment (including 2012 draftees) leaving 21 spots available to both free agents and UDFA's. This is as per the new 90 player roster limit rule implemented this week.

I wouldn't be shocked either, just disappointed. Regardless, I don't think he sticks around very long no matter who brings him in. Good size and some talent but more limitations than strengths. He's not a fluid runner, stiff hips, short arms, takes several strides to get up to speed and compared to what's between his ears, those are his strong points.
