Good Luck Colt Brennan

Colt Brennan had to wait a little while, but after a day and a half of the NFL Draft, Colt was taken in the 6th round by the Washington Redskins. He was the only Warrior taken in the draft, with Davone Bess, Ryan Grice-Mullins, and Jason Rivers signing free agent deals. Two bad two of those three receivers had a year of eligibility left.

For Brennan, this was a great move. Now, the pressure is off of him. Brennan is not expected to compete for a starting job right away, and he shouldn't be. Often times, teams and players make the mistake of getting someone in "too early." Here, Brennan will be developed by Washington Redskins head coach Jim Zorn, who was formerly the Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator. The Redskins have a starter in Jason Campbell, and a number two guy in Todd Collins. All Colt needs to do is progress, keep his head up, and he may be in good shape.

I feel bad for Jordan Dizon. Dizon, the pride of Kauai and the former Buffalo of Colorado, was drafted in the second round by the Detroit Lions. Dizon is extremely good, don't get me wrong. BUT, it's the Detroit Lions. I wouldn't want to be stuck in that organization, and neither would you.

Who may play sooner? I think it would be Dizon, even though to some he is oversized, but I see some need for a linebacker in Detroit. He could possibly be on the field this season if he works hard.

As always, feel free to leave your comments while I finish up my Star-Bulletin Top 10 Softball poll. And, of course, I've gotta leave the video of the day. Thanks to LEONARDDAVISPROBOWL, here is the best of Colt Brennan.
