I don’t think he gets drafted. He’s going to have a really hard time making a roster for numerous reasons. It’s better to be undrafted if you aren’t an early pick though, because you can pick the right situation later.

RE: Any predictions on Marino
Hard to tell. He's got a pretty substantial body of work (some of it a little after the whistle). But he showed out in his pro day. Speed and footwork were on par with a late rounder but he did 41 reps on the bench. Only one lineman in the combine or pro day did more[/align]

Scouts had him running short routes and catching passes as a possible H-back, too...

Hope he gets drafted but afraid he will be a FA. If he gets drafted it will be near the end of the 7th.

RE: Any predictions on Marino
I know the nature of things is that we tend to look at everything through Blazer-tinted glasses, and there's nothing wrong with that. I've read a lot of folks being surprised that Marino didn't show up on a lot of projected draft boards. But I never felt like he had much of a chance getting drafted. Of all the players that finished last year, none of those got drafted either, and I thought several were better prospects than Marino is. I know about a dozen signed UDFA contracts, or got invited to camp, but even then hardly anyone survived the cuts.

I would expect Marino, Vogel and Mofor to sign somewhere, and I hope they get a shot. But I would be surprised if any of them were on rosters by the fall season.

RE: Any predictions on Marino
It’s tough to get drafted being a situational linemen. Cant remember him ever playing 3 ‘consecutive’ downs that weren’t a late in the game pass rush need. We aren’t playing strong competition in the trenches, either.

Anthony Rush got screwed out of a lot of money last year. Jordan Smith probably could have sneaked into this years Draft, but I’d expect he’s looking for big money next spring.
