Those of you who dislike sappy draft analysis should do yourselves a favor and leave this page. It's about to get fanboy-ish in here.
I briefly talked about Colt Lyerla in the ASJ video post, but I'll gladly expand on my initial comments. Lyerla, who is Oregon's tight end extraordinaire, reminds me of a bigger, stronger Dallas Clark. He's comfortable with carrying the ball out of the backfield, and he's an absolute bull in the open field. Hands look strong and soft, and he's capable of making some highlight reel grabs in the more unwelcome areas of the field (see: over the middle). I want.
