"How will Andersen fit in the NFL? Right now, there’s no consensus, aside from that he can make an instant impact on special teams. Some say he profiles best as a raw but athletically gifted linebacker who may require a couple years of development to reach his full potential."
The NFL loves athleticism and speed. He has both. Does that make him a 2d round pick? I still don't think so. Does that make him a day 1 starter? I can't imagine that it does. But, I was wrong on his elite speed, so maybe I will continue to be on a roll, the wrong way. Good luck to the kid. I hope his NFL career is a as good as the Mexican food truck in downtown Dillon.

My Wild Ass Guess prediction is Troy goes to Buffalo in the 2nd. They currently have pick 57.

After 27 pages of this thread I am glad to see the Draft has finally arrived. If Troy goes in the first three rounds, good for him. A great player and person, I was glad to have had the opportunity to watch him. It will be interesting to see how his NFL career develops.

Me too. Because it means the death of this f###[#] thread.
My prediction: late 4th or 5th round. Ends up on practice squad or injured reserve and eventually gets an injury settlement and plays very little if ever on Sundays.

Oh, I predict this thread will continue for some time after the draft!
Mean, but probably your funniest yet. Can't wait to see where he goes and how he does.garizzalies said:

Wow... That's bleak. I hope you are really wrong, and that this isn't what you are hoping for.
