Draft Daze Continued from Page 7 recognition, even if they’ve never even played ball. Fortunately, Chris Berman of ESPN was around to explain to me that the Henry Ford in question was, in fact not only alive, but also a very large defensive end from the Arkansas Razorbacks. What? The Oilers address a need in the first round? The end of the world must be nigh. And as I glanced over the Oilers list of new recruits, I borrowed a line from one of my heroes, Foghorn Leghorn, in an effort to ex press my joy and amazement. ‘‘Well hog gravy and chitlins, I don’t be lieve my ahhs(eyes)!”, I bellowed as I read over the list. Houston had somehow managed to draft guys who likely can fill the holes on the team opened up by way of old age and free agency. Wonder of wonders, new CM Floyd Reese had an actual plan going into draft day; he was not simply resigned to "taking the best athlete available”, which usually means in Oiler lingo, the best athlete available who is willing to sign cheap. The wonders of wonders for me on Tues day was the Oilers’ fifth round selection of Roderick Lewis of Arizona. Hold your breath, denizens of Houston, Lewis is an honest-to-goodness tight end, a first for the Oilers since Dave Casper was traded after the 1983 season. Lewis is a big horse at 6’-4” and 254 pounds, and has been labeled as a superior blocker. In addition to Lewis, Houston planned ahead for the very likely departure of big- name wide receivers Webster Slaughter and Haywood Jeffires by nabbing Malcolm Seabron from Fresno State in the tnird round, and Lee Gissendaner from Northwestern in the sixth round. With Lorenzo White also soon to depart from the team, the Oilers also picked up tail back Sean Jackson from Florida State. Although the Oilers will lose no offensive linemen this off-season, perennial Pro Bowlers Mike Munchak and Bruce Matthews will be 34 and 33 years old respectively come training camp in August. Munchak may even retire before then, or decide to be a part-time player this next sea son, the result of nine painful knee sur^eriei Enter Jim Reid from Virginia, a 6'-7’,3fo pound tackle and guard from Virginia. Reid nas been labeled by some as a medical rist, but was cleared by the Oilers’ medical staff, On the other side of the ball, Cris Dish man is expected to depart soon for greenei pastures, leaving the Oilers sans one formet Pro Bowl cornenaack. But from the fruits of the Warren h trade comes Michael Davis of Cincinnati, i guy with Cris Dishman’s size, and better thaa Dishman speed. An exceptional athlete, Davis was a t team All-American despite playing only two and a half years of college ball. Davis runs the 40-yara dash in 4.46 seconds and pos sesses a 35"-vertical leap. Throw in a couple of linebackers in the ninth and 10th rounds, and the Oilers a] to have put together one of their finest drafts in recent history. Despite another playoff collapse last yeai, the defection of Buddy Ryan to the Arizona desert and the trading of the greatest quarter back in franchise history, tne Oilers 1 lured me back yet again.
