LOL yeah, Medford women have hooves!

Medford: Where the men are men, the women are men, and the cattle are nervous.

Really like this pick. Might be my favorite of the non 1st/2nd rounds.

They say for a small school guy to project to the NFL, he should be dominant at that level. Slowy was definitely dominating. He looked like a man among boys out there. Halfway through that video I was just laughing. The guy's a wrecking machine. Also love the fact that he really goes after people and never stops. Showed good athleticism too.

Just killing it! Talk about finishing blocks! I loved how he just blew it up, never stopped and was constantly getting to the 2nd level...even blocking with 1 arm and looking to block more with his head on a swivel. Just awesome. Harbaalke love OL with serious attitude and passion!

Great highlight reels of him destroying his competition!

Well he said he visited with the 49ers. He'll get his chance on the practice squad.

This for sure.

Just heads up, I'm the reporter who did both those stories on Slowey and I'm also a diehard 49er fan. I from San Jose, up here in Medford to work for the NBC affiliate. I tried to remain unbiased, but was rooting for the 49ers to pick him. In the high school video there is another famous athlete that he is tackling. I'll give hint, he is the "6 foot 9" QB in Blue and White, a color he would wear in college as well. Also if your looking for pro prospects from the Southern Oregon area, you will find a slew of them in every sport. Names like Jeremy Guthrie, Chad Cota, Sonny Sixkiller (la rams and from the movie Longest Yard, he plays "Indian:) heck throw in Kevin Towers (d-backs gm) and the mystery player from that video I was just talking about. This place is actually a hot bed for pitching talent. Besides Guthrie, there is about 4 pretty good minor league prospects from the area. For such a small area, I have to this place turns out good athletes. As far as Jason goes, he will probably take a year to learn the nuances of the center position, then be able to step in year 2 or 3, depending on how long Goodwin lasts. Just interesting that I read these forums all the time, then saw my video posted on one of them.

Man I actually really dig this pick. Dude is not only a beast, he's a dedicated beast. You can tell that he'll do nothing but concentrate on being the best he can. Great stuff.

Long lost brother?...

Yeah, I agree. People can talk about practice squad material but like you said he was definitely dominating...doing everything right to make a team somewhere. You see him pancaking guys at the 2nd level? And just tossing defenders to the side at the line at times? I really like this guy too. Great value for this round. People shouldn't forget we got RJF in the 7th=]
