    I like both of 'em. I don't know anything about the OL selected in the 5th round.

    Hopefully, I can still find one of the perioidicals specializing on the draft & then fill the rest of y'all in. Unless Beef & Dale have some insight that I don't.

    I know a little about each of them....

    Pape was the strongest OT at the combine, and was a star track athlete at one point....TSN Draft guide said this about him, "Pape will have to play RT or G. He will likely slip to the 2nd day of the draft because his physical ability is not spectacular. Hes an instinctive player who probably will compete his way into a starting role" They listed him as a 4th round prospect

    Pope is undersized but athletic and has the mentality to be a special teams star....TSN said "Pope lacks the physical tools to develop into a weakside starter, but he is worth a late round pick becuase he has the heart and enough athletic skills to contribute part time on passing downs and coverage units"
