Wow. Again. I’m very impressed with the Colts for trading up, and agin they selected a very impressive player at a position of need. Ben Ijalana played left tackle in college, but because of his height (and now the presence of Anthony Castonzo on the roster) many are projecting him at guard. I see him more as a right tackle – I mean, he has 36-inch arms for Jiminy’s sake – with Charlie Johnson pushed inside to guard. Or it could go the other way, depending on Ijalana’s feet. The numbers:
Height: 6035, Weight: 317, 10-yard dash: 1.75, 20-yard dash: 2.93, 40-yard dash: 5.20, Bench Reps: DNP, Vertical jump: 25.5, Long jump: 8’9, Shuttle: 4.70, Three-cone: 7.75, Arm length: 36, Hand length: 10.5
The Colts are now minus a fifth rounder, but so what? Looks like they have two starters on the offensive line.
So what’s next? Safety? Receiver? Halfback? Defensive tackle? Quarterback? I’m thinking offensive gamebreaker. Jacquizz? Hunter? Jernigan?
