    I swear, it feels like Buckeye alumni paid off someone to avoid LSU or Clemson in the 2-3 bracket because they match up better against inferior passing teams. 
     

    I don’t believe the Buckeyes are #1 this year. They got elevated to #1 after a 28-17 unconvincing win vs Penn State, LSU had been #1 till then.

     

    OSU has more wins against top-25 opponents and a much larger margin of victory too.. LSU gave up over 30 points and 600 yards to an Ole Miss team who can't throw a football and 38 points to a 3 win Vanderbilt team. Ohio State is the more complete/dominant team...

    First off..... IT aint going to happen

     

    But .....  Imagine this defense with a terror off the edge.......  

     

    Chase Young plays both pass and run better than any defensive end I have ever seen out of college

     

    I have been wrong before (and I WILL be again... Im sure) 

     

    We have a lot of draft picks and fewer "holes" to fill

     

    But again.....  I highly doubt that a trigger would be pulled like this

     

    I can see CB trading out again, and picking up earlier, later picks

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     


    It was a shame with the suspension as I really think he could have challenged Suggs sack record of 24. His strength and quickness/first step, for being 265lbs, is incredible. The kid will be the difference maker down the stretch for the Buckeyes. 

     

    Side note, as much as I like Hines, I think Dobbins would be the perfect fit for that role. Bigger and can handle 15-20 carries a game if anything were to happen to Mack.  I'd like to see the Colts find a way to snag him with one of their day 2 picks because I doubt he lasts much longer than that.

    Oh yeah for sure, and with cap situation at the time there was no way we could keep him. Just would have liked to see it. Wishes, dreams and all that. 

     

    I believe they re-upped Reggie that year as well and Garcon made it known he wasn't taking a hometown discount

    He was really ineffective last year at DE I think PFF gave him one of the worst DE grades in the league. I think they recognized this...and didn't want to put him there again. But then injuries kept piling up.

     

    I thought he might provide some value as a pass-rushing DL on 3rd down....but even if healthy...I think he's buried on the depth chart.

     

    He was playing the right side, which he wasn't going to be productive at anyways, because he's not a rush-type end. He wasn't at OSU and of course against NFL LT's he's not going to produce. He's a strong side DE, which Sheard was already starting at anyways.

    you can tell they want him as an interior DL player.

     

    Again, why would they play him at a position he didn't play in college?

    There was a interview with Lewis a couple of weeks ago in the IndyStar. He sounded really frustrated. It didn’t sound like he would have a issue with effort. I wonder if the injuries have made him lose a step. He is also in a weird spot where he is kind of a tweener. He isn’t a DE and he is to small for the inside. I wonder if he would do better in a 3-4 as a outside linebacker.

     

    He's absolutely a DE. He's not athletic/rangy enough to play either OLB spots, but he could be a serviceable/rotational LDE in a 4-3 system like the Colts'.
