The only other one I've seen that dominant was Larry Allen, and their line resulted in 3 superbowls

Allen would come to the line and Whooooo Whooo at the D. He told the D the train was coming right down his track.

Yeah, picking him six was way too high. What? Too much sarcasim?

That was a great play. It pissed Clowney off too. He instantly rolled Nelson back over, to avid the humiliation of getting tea bagged!

No, he's being forced to say he's wrong.

And if he's so dang smart, he should have seen John Hannah. That's what they compared Nelson to.

Predicting a player will become Hall of Fame caliber is a pretty good way to make yourself look foolish. There have been too many "Can't Miss" players who have missed to just look at tape of someone dominating in college and say they'll be a Hall of Famer. I remember when a bunch of people were ready to hand A.J. Hawk and Aaron Curry gold jackets when they entered the draft. How did that work out?

Worked ok for Jonathan Ogden, Orlando Jones, Gary Zimmerman, Bruce Mathews, Mike Munchak, Anthony Munoz, Willie Roalf

Here's the entire list and they number of hall of famers in the lower rounds gets really small

Bonus Round (From 1947 through 1958, the first selection of the draft was a Bonus pick, awarded to the winner of a random draw. That club, in turn, forfeited its last-round draft choice. The winner of the Bonus pick was eliminated from future draws. The system was abolished after 1958, by which time all clubs had received a Bonus pick.)

What's your point? That because he was a high round selection means that someone should be able to watch the film and say he'll be a Hall of Famer? Cool, watch college tape of Steve Emtman and tell me your impressions. Also, the Chiefs, Patriots, and Jets were all pretty stupid in the 1983 draft. Why didn't they just put in the tape of Kelly (Chiefs) or Marino (all 3 teams), see the Hall of Famer, and draft him?
