It looks good from here. Once again P/J got railroaded by many pundits over the choice of Kenneth Walker lll rather than Malik Willis. Of course none of them know of Chris Carson's possible career ending injury. It's the lazy view that you can't take a back that so high. Instead we should use are second round pick on a QB who may never see the field. Instead I look at it that he was the Doke Walker winner which is given to the best runningback in the nation. He had close to 1700 yards rushing and 18 touchdowns. He also has a great side step but if need be he can use his fireplug frame to run people over. I think I am exact on this, he ran a 4.36 40 yard dash, making him a homerun threat every time he touches the ball. Us Seaside Joe Readers had a pretty good idea we were not taking a QB. I did like the thought of Matt Corral going at 41 to us , but when we took Walker3 I was very happy. What would be exceptional is Chris Carson returning to form to go with Penny and W3. Neither one of our place holder backs has played more than 12 games in a season so Walker will be game fully employed no matter what.

The rest of the draft looked pretty darn good. Our first five round selections are most likely going to make the team. Three to four of them have the chance to be pro bowlers somewhere down the line. This is the first draft in a long time that I wasn't left wondering about a couple of fairly high picks. No one knows yet how the players will turn out for sure. Personally as you can tell I am very High on this class and thats not BC bud speaking. Victoria Chris

"You deserve a rest today!" sung to the tune of a long forgotten jingle. Kenneth, build up the wax of the candle you've been burning. In fact, sometimes after a long day, my feeling was, "Ahh, i've gotta get through all of these new Seaside Joes." They're great reading but you've been putting them out at a prodigious pace. A rest is fine for all of us.

On Robert Turbin : a ref said that a pass didn't hit the ground but hit Mr. Turbin's bicep. This ball sailed something like 15 yards away and led to an interception. There were all kinds of comments for quite a while about Robert having metal biceps. Robert Turbin also had an inordinate number of some of his greatest runs called back do to a penalty by the offense. Hope he's doing well.
