Will Kory be the most highly drafted Falcon ever?

Wow...Kory is the best. I believe Bernie Casey was picked in the first round back in 60 or 61? I want to say the 9th pick overall?

Somehow I knew after I wrote that that I probably missed an old-timer that got picked high. :)

I heard Kiper over the summer on ESPN radio doing a MAC preview. He had
Kory in his top three in the country and best offensive lineman in the MAC. He also had him as a name to know in the future for playing on Sunday.

Kory, the Steelers need a center for the future. Max Starks might not be back next year. You can keep number 78. :)

i think after the draft last year they were predicting 3rd round for him this year

His experience at other positions will help him more than anything.

Kory is a senior, any other guys with extrordinarily long last names to take over as our best lineman?

We would all like to think that Kory is a first round pick, but reality shows that centers are usually not high on a priority list. HOWEVER, he can play more than one O-line position, which is HUGE because of limited roster size for NFL teams.

Guards also dont go very high tho (I mean round 1 anyway), So he would have to show the ability or the footwork and athletic ability to potentially play LT or he will likely be a 3rd rounder.

As a 3rd rounder he will make more in his rookie year than I will make in my 30th year of my career.

I agree, 3rd round, but it has been seen that a great G could slip into the late 1st round or 2nd round.

2nd round is VERY possible.
