Overview Overview Even though he was sometimes a forgotten man in a loaded backfield, few could argue that Schmitt was perhaps the team's most important player throughout his three seasons in the program. His devastating blocks and ability to play both fullback and tight end brought back memories of football's glory years for professional scouts watching him play. Most agree he is a throwback ...

3 Mountaineers get picked in the ‘08 NFL Draft
Published 4/28/2008 by MountaineerBob at WVMountaineerSports.com
... Owen Schmitt went next in the 5th round, 163rd Pick by the Seattle Seahawks. It was reported they wanted him and looks like they got him. I can’t wait to see Schmitt on the field this fall. I’m actually shocked  and  awed by this late pick. It seems everyone thought he would go earlier than 5th round. ...

Who to Take With #92

Rover found this 4/27/2008 on thedallascowboys.net

I’m going with the same list I came up for 2nd round possibilities, Bennett was atop my list and the Cowboys took him. I think Beau Bell could be the guy if he is there, also look for Owen Schmitt to being the bull dozing FB Moose type back Garrett wants. The Cowboys are drafting late in the third round. If available, here are some players to watch at #92: LB Beau Bell, UNLV FB ...

Day 2: Part 2

Posted 4/27/2008 on The Power of 12

Tim Ruskell and Mike Holmgren downplayed the idea of the Hawks taking a running back after they missed out on the top couple guys. They were lying. Instead, they took two. In the late rounds on Sunday, the Hawks re-emphasized their commitment to making sure they can run the football again. In the 5th round, they took Owen Schmitt, a throwback fullback from West Virgina. He is best known ...

Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando The Seahawks have drafted two Schmitts in a matter of hours, taking West Virginia fullback Owen Schmitt and San Diego State snapper Tyler Schmitt. Seattle is still trying to replace dependable snapper J.P. Darche, who left for Kansas City before the 2007 season. Darche was coming off an injury, but he never suffered a bad snap while with Seattle from 2000 to ...

Just to keep the loyal MVN readers updated, we are several rounds deep into day two. Tim Ruskell just provided the Seahawks with there first What!?!?! moment taking FB Owen Schmitt . The Hawks opted not to improve their picks so far today, and they managed to get big run stuffer in Red Bryant , who happens to be the son-in-law of former Seahawk great Jacob Green. Bryant is another player ...

Seahawks 5th Round Pick: Owen Schmitt

Posted 4/27/2008 on Field Gulls: Front Page Posts

Got me. I'll try and update this, but, yeah, I'm flummoxed. . . . Okay, here we go. This is a pick against Leonard Weaver. Weaver did some exciting stuff last year, but has yet to truly take to the fullback position. He's not a dominating lead blocker and still misses too many assignments pass blocking. Ignore Schmitt's rushing numbers for a second. He made some hay in college, but ...
TE Gary Barnidge In The 5th

Posted 4/27/2008 on Playing For Pride

Okay, no idea what they’re thinking now. I defended (or tried to) the first 4 picks. But how am I supposed to defend this? They pass on DeMario Pressley , who the Saints traded up for and took 2 picks later. They pass on other DTs too. Hell, they even pass on the available QBs (like Erik Ainge ) & FBs ( Owen Schmitt & Peyton Hillis ). To add a TE! Now, it’s not ...
Who to Take in 5th

EA Sports Releases NCAA Football '09 to Polite Applause

Posted 4/25/2008 on FanHouse

The notion of a fancy party for a video game seems odd -- why dress up and go out for something best enjoyed while wearing ratty gym shorts in your own home? But EA Sports apparently knows what they're doing, and they hosted a party at Marquee -- a trendy Manhattan night club -- last night for the release of NCAA Football '09. Several college football stars in town for the draft attended the ...
Could FB Owen Schmitt solve the running back issues?

Posted 4/21/2008 on The Steel Tradition

Mike Tomlin likes versatile guys. He reminds us of that at least once a month, and it makes sense. So, with a slim group of big backs to look at in this year’s draft, I’d like to think the front office has considered looking to the fullback pool to find a solution. And, with his rare combination of size and speed, West Virginia fullback Owen Schmitt just might be the answer.  ...
