Tackle Tony Moll, Sr. - Mill is a converted tight end who has 11 career catches and four touchdowns. The 280-pound senior was one of the surprises of spring ball and should be able to use his athleticism to become a much needed reliable pass blocker.
As a BC fan I can tell GB fans this: You will come to LOVE Blackmon as much as NE fans love Troy Brown. This kid just gets it done. I was hoping he fell to the Pats at 118.

Moll was never going to be on the NFL radar as a tight end, but he is getting attention as a tackle now.
"I am more conservative than most, but he is definitely getting strong second-day consideration," said Jim Grogan, one of Moll's Reno-based agents. "The scouts love his feet and how well he moves and his overall athleticism. What's big for him right now is his size and strength and being able to hold that."
Moll weighed in at 310 pounds for both pro days. During the first one, he ran a 5.1 40-yard dash, an impressive time for an offensive lineman. He was bothered by a tight hamstring last week and ran a 5.27.
The Dallas Cowboys sent assistant head coach and offensive line coach Tony Sparano to Reno recently to give Moll a private workout. The tackle is set to visit Green Bay on Tuesday and he will then head to San Diego next week.
Moll, who grew up as a "die-hard 49ers fan" just outside of the Bay Area, said it was "surreal" to workout for San Francisco rival Dallas.
"The Cowboys were the first to come in and show interest and I called my parents and said 'Hey, the Cowboys are coming out,'" he said. "They were just like, 'Oh, that's great, I guess.' But I'll play for anyone. I just want my chance."
Both agents said the hardest part for their clients will be the next four weeks, which is more of a waiting game than anything else. Most NFL scouts have done the bulk of their research and will spend this month solidifying their draft boards and prioritizing needs.
"We'll learn more over the next two weeks what these guys are thinking," Grogan said.
Said Miller: "This is the big waiting game now."
Sounds like a nice pick at this point in the draft.Tyrone Culver
All I can find is that he loves runs fast (4.52) and makes good violent hits. His weakness is that he only weighs 196 lbs.

Pretty good athlete...Physical and will help versus the run...A playmaker who has a knack for coming through in the clutch...Very smart both on and off the field...A hard worker with premier intangibles...A very consistent and reliable performer.
Weaknesses:
Does not have great timed speed...Instincts are below average...Is built more like a cornerback...Does not have fluid hips and is slow out of his breaks...Can be too conservative at times...Range is a bit limited...Might not have a very big upside.
Notes:
Wants to go to dental school...Probably doesn't have all the physical tools and measurables you look for in a prospect...The type who does everything well but nothing great...Might never be a star but could be a solid backup at the pro level
Sounds like another character guy who can contribute on ST play, potentially more in the future.
There is still a chance...Dang I really wanted them to pick Greg Eslinger. He would be such a good fit for the system

That is a prefect fit and losing Flannagan I thought we woudl be a perfect fit since I think we are going to move of that kind of blocking system.

They netted 4 players from that trade. They already had a 5th round pick prior to the Walker trade and that pick went from selection #139 to #148. That selection was used on Martin.Thompson's Walker trade has netted the Pack;
Daryn Colledge - OT
Will Blackmon - WR
Ingle Martin - QB
Johnny Jolly - DT
Tyrone Culver - FS
Nice work by Thompson & the Pack turning one player into five.
Even if only two or three pan out, they've done well IMO.![]()
B was the highest grade given on that page... and like 8 teams got it...that grading page was a joke...Kiper Jr. liked day 1...didn't like day 2. His analysis:
Green Bay Packers: Grade B
The Packers had a lot of picks (12) and definitely some reaches. Linebacker A.J. Hawk will give the Packers a much-needed face on defense. Offensive tackle Daryn Colledge needs to get stronger and become a better run blocker. I really like wide receiver Greg Jennings, linebacker Abdul Hodge and and Jason Spitz. I gave Green Bay an A after the first day. Will Blackmon was both a wide receiver and cornerback at Boston Collge, but reportedly will get a chance to play corner initially.

Hopefully Greg Jennings + 75th overall > Chad Jackson
