It’s only one game but I’m loving this pick wherever he was taken, particularly for this team. Everyone remembers the shit show that was our line. We added a guy who is huge, strong as the freaking proverbial bull, extremely quick with incredible balance and a great football IQ. He has an attitude and the physical skills to back it up. I must have missed all those pancake blocks we made last year so seeing Nelson just drill the shit out of someone or stonewall them like a brick wall gives me fuzzies. I’m not saying he’s an all-pro now, but after one game he sure as hell hasn’t done a damn thing to make me think he can’t be one. Watching him develop (and hopefully bring the line along with him) should be one of the high points of all us freaks this year reguarless of where he was picked. Gonna be fun
