So I promised you guys to tell the Ryan Hill story. He didn't get drafted. Surprised. Anyway. On my flight home from the NFL Combine I found myself sitting next to none other than Mike Tomlin's agent. Unbelievable. We talked football including a ton of Steelers football the whole way home. Mike's agent as it turns out is also Ryan Hill's rep. He asked me where I thought Hill would go and I told him 6th or 7th round. So he tells me no way...this guy is the next Sam Shields...Tomlin loves him and he won't get out of the 3rd or 4th round. Obviously Mike didn't like him that much. It was a fun flight though and I told him to bring Mike down to the Keys and I would take him fishing. Hasn't called yet.
