Sold on Pettigrew as a solid, safe pick in a draft full of land mines!!! The pick of Pettigrew would fit Teddy T's entire profile of being all about the "no sizzle"!!! Love Pettigrew as a pro TE, but can you get any more "non sizzling" than a 263lb blocking TE that runs a 4.85 40 yard dash!!! Am I the only one that sees how this is in the near future. Teddy wants no part of any risky business when he is going to have to open that creaky old checkbook to the tune of a big dollar commitment at pick 9.
Way too scary taking one of those DE/OLB edge guys. You have no idea what your getting when you take a college DE that has played with hand down for past few years, always going forward. Now you want him standing up and he also has to cover people in the pass defense going backwards, and oh yeah not too mention the adjustment of speed,power, and size he has to deal with stepping into the real deal NFL from college. Man that is an awful lot of adjustments, thats why Pettigrew keeps looking shinier and shinier folks!!!
If not Pettigrew at nine. Ted wants to trade down big time and will take any move down he can land. Maybe move a few spots and still take the TE if thats all he can pull off. Could be hard to find partners to move down this year, would say two possible great situations for GB could be Mark Sanchez QB or Andre Smith OT both high profile guys that could have suitors who want to jump ahead of SF at pick ten to snag one of those two guys.
