Don't be surprised to see this guy take over for Fowler at some point either this year or next year. Watching him in pre-season he was a big factor in our strong run game when the second stringers were in. I was hoping he would get a shot to compete for the starting role this year but they probably thought that Fowler would be better with more talent around him.

Re: Christian Gaddis....
Never heard of him. Where did he go to school?

Re: Christian Gaddis....
Villanova, I think. Yes, they do play football of a sort at Villanova.I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.Comment

If Gaddis was as good as Fowler, they would have already have had him in there.

Re: Christian Gaddis....
The fact that they've activated Gaddis off the PS is a good sign that he's improved substantially - so I like that move. In fact, when I 1st read it, I was surprised...thinking that they should've activated Scott Mayle or the other receiver from the PS given our WR situation and the fact that we really don't have a #2. Mayle had burning speed and just needs to work on routes. But the fact that they activated Gaddis over a WR indicates how much along he must have come to be worth activating over a need position!Comment

Re: Christian Gaddis....
Fowler really isn't huge is he? He is barely 300 lbs. Never heard of Gaddis but I hightly doubt he gets in there without injury and frankly I don't want them messing with the line at this point. It is one of the better parts of our team.Comment

Why Merz? What has he done?Comment

Re: Christian Gaddis....
Merz was suppossed to beat out Fowler this year, he started games as a rookie 2 yrs ago and is a monster 6ft5 345lbs, he is nasty against the run and decent against the pass, he needs to stay healthy thou,
Gaddis is small too 6ft 2 295lbs, but looked alot more stout againt the run, Gaddis had a 4th round grade in most draft books but were he plated probably shyed team away,
Fowler is the major problem in the run game, he gets pushed back way to much, Butler is really becoming good at RG, we get a C in here worth something and this oline becomes dominant instead of averageXTRA CRISPY XTRA SAUCEYComment

Start messing with center qb snap exchange can't be a good idea.

Re: Christian Gaddis....
I just checked 5 draft sources. Mel Kiper, Frank Coyle (Draft Insider's Digest), Nolan Nawrocki (PFW), Russ Lande (GMjr) & NFL Draft Scout and not one gave him a draftable grade. 4th round? Where did you get that from?Originally posted by bigbub2352
He may make it, but he definitely came in under the radar of "most draft books".Comment
