landonhusker Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Just saw a full mock draft on Fox Sports and they have Andrew Shanle getting drafted in the 6th round. This may not be news to you but it is to me. There is no way, he quite possibly might be one of the worst football players at his position ever to don a college uniform. I THINK IM GONNA PUKE Quote Link to comment

bethelbacker Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Man whatever the folks over at Fox Sports are smoking must be some potent stuff. I've seen 10 year olds who play safety better than Shanle. Quote Link to comment
chuckd Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I could see Andrew getting picked up as a non-drafted free agent. He has good speed and a good build. He would play ONLY on special teams, but he showed he was decent at punt coverage in college. He will not be a safety in the NFL, he just doesn't have the instincts. I think the Saints have shown interest because his brother, Scott plays for them. As far as the mock draft goes, I've never seen a mock draft come even close to getting the first round right, let alone all the way to the 6th. Quote Link to comment
kc_husker Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Even at the spring game some people behind were still bitching about him. Poor guy cant get no love. Quote Link to comment

Plus they could get a decent special teams player for the minimum wage. Quote Link to comment

huskerfan500 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I agree special teams will be his job probably, he really wasn't that bad, with the corners being so bad it made him look bad. He had good pro-day stats. In my mock draft, which is usually alright, I have him going in the 7th Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Well he is still a Husker so let's all remember that. Having said that he is really afraid to hit it seems, but I could definately see him getting a spot on special teams as well. I seen a mock draft today that had Carriker going to the Rams. Man that would be great considering I'm a big Rams fan!!!! Quote Link to comment

Mos def a special teamer though, he should never be on the field otherwise. He should pick up long snapping to up his value. Quote Link to comment
HUSKER 37 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I don't watch any NFL games unless there's at least 2 Huskers playing.. I've wondered a few times, what is it with New Orleans and their facination with Husker DB's? Seems like they've had ~6-7 on their rosters over the last few years. Not complaining..Oh Yeah..Good Luck Andrew..I'll still pull for ya. If your unfortunate enough to play for the Cardinals, I'll have to buy you a beer or something. Quote Link to comment
chuckd Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 he really wasn't that bad, with the corners being so bad it made him look bad. I disagree 100% I think it was much more the poor safety play that made the corners look bad. The safety's job (in most instances) is to help the corners, that simply didn't happen. Plus, Shanle took the worst angles and refused to put a hit on anyone. Not to bash Andrew, cause I'm sure he gave it his all, but it wasn't the corners fault that he refused to hit anyone and was often out of position. Quote Link to comment
macroboy Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Hey guys, cut Shanle some slack. If it wasn't for him we'd still be complaining about Rickets (sp?). Remember him? Quote Link to comment
