It's kind of interesting as I remember people ******* Hagen and Dumervile during the combines and if memory serves me right both of these guys stock was declining going into the draft.

Anderson was passed up by just about everybody. Not much was said about his chances after the Senior Bowl. He got a sack in that game and has been doing it ever since.

Goes to show there is no exact science when it comes to finding football players. You can add up the numbers with the size, speed, strength, agility stuff all day long.

Some guys just play football in a way that numbers cannot show.

 

[GakkofNorway]

I'm just wondering, what kept us from picking up Baskett or Nancy when they were FAs afterthe draft, or even Hagan late in the draft?

 

[hoos]

I love AJ and all, but I have to say he didn't put in the best performance of the week.

I'd have to give it to either lundy or washington.

I still voted for AJ though.

I still voted for AJ though.

Washington and Lundy would both be excellent choices, too. I'd put Washington ahead of Lundy even though Lundy played the tougher D.

AJ has my vote :thumbsup:

 

[Packers_Finland]

I voted for AJ. I really didnt care for him when the season started, but now I've started to like him. He was on fire against the Dolphins
