Congrats Zach. Best of luck.
Way to go Gentry!
But people on the board told me there was no way he'd get drafted. He was picked even earlier than Butt
Butt dropped due to his injury though. I hope he can get healthy and go to another team that can feature him as a TE1 or TE2. With Denver drafting Noah Fant I don’t think he has a future there anymore
That was a truly stupid post dude!
Butt had just blown out his ACL.
C'mon man... comparing the productivity of those 2 is a real fucking slap in the face of a guy who cost himself a LOT of coin by playing in our bowl game!
I mean, his stock was generally thought to be around here before he kinda sucked down the stretch and then took a steaming shit at the combine so can you blame people? Glad he got drafted.
Congratulations, Zach!
Here's to a long career in a great football town!
I wouldn't have guessed Gentry would get drafted before Higdon.

It was a bit of a surprise pick for the 5th round. They must have saw something they liked, he was the lowest graded tight end to get drafted with a couple of higher graded TE’s being taken in the 7th.
Cool dude
I hope you get at least 1201 downvotes for that post.
Nothing says "congratulations" like shitting on a player when he's drafted.
Isn’t that what half the board did after Gary got drafted? Doesn’t seem like a lot to ask to Take a minute and celebrate for these guys before shitting all over them. It’s unequivocally a good thing when these guys get drafted and literally a dream come true and yet people feel the need to take immediate shots. Fans aren’t the only ones that read these boards and twitter. Players parents, recruits, recruits parents and other pay atttention to this shit and it’s such a terrible look to trot out these farewell FUs to plates in threads celebrating their success.
Double post
Seriously. How miserable of person are you for shitting on a kid for getting DRAFTED!?
I think a lot more ppl are gonna have to open this thread for that to happen!
I'll keep you posted then:
A meager 58 downvotes as of 4:30 pm.
I don't think all that many ppl are interested in logging into this topic to either congratulate or shit on Gentry.
So you probably won't ever get those coveted 1K downvotes...?
Never a need to attack the poster. Anyone can and will discard such senseless commentary (likely coming from a guy living in his mom's basement who has no distinguishing attributes).
Outstanding for Gentry! The dude came in as a marginal 4 star QB and re-shaped himself into a top 150 NFL draft pick, along with a UM degree, someone who will well represent our school.
Contributed a downvote to get this clown to 1201 @robf, don't worry!
You're such a miserable, pathetic piece of shit
You're the soul of gracious charm. Inviting you to our next mgoblog soiree.
Your team, doesn’t give one solitary fuck what you are glad for. Neither does Zach Gentry nor anyone on this board or the entirety of the internet. So save yourself some energy the next time you have a hawt take and use it for another trip to the fridge. What a dickwad.
Go away.
This is rather overt, even for Maizen. Is it possible this is a parody account? Could this just be a schtick? I sure hope that you’re not truly this much of a piece of shit.
Obligatory....
Haven’t logged on in a while, but needed to downvote this
Nice. Great organization, and should have a good chance of making the roster there. Hope he has a great career.
Might be a historical good organization but the current makeup is a dumpster fire.
either way good luck Zach.
Huh?
See Antonio Brown, leveon Bell drama
former players making racism accusations against current QBs who just got an extension
9-6-1 record no playoffs last year
the team is definitely trending down
oh and they have a clown head coach that ran down a sideline and tripped an opposing player who was about to score a TD
I think that's a bit much. They've still got a super bowl winning coach who has been there over a decade, and they won 9 games last year. I'm from Michigan. If the Steelers are a dumpster fire, then what are the Lions or the Jets? A planetary catastrophe?
Those teams should be relegated.
Arena Football League watch out!
You know there can be more than one dumpster fire. The Jets are making some good personnel decisions, the Lions on the other hand are still SOL. From Wayne, to Bobby, to Mooch, and now to Patricia, they are always swimming against the current fully clothed with rocks in their pockets.
That sounds about right based on the Lions draft thus far.
The Lions have evolved from making 1st round WR picks to making 1st round TE picks.
Kiddos, practice your long-snapping skills. A payday awaits.
This seems obvious. If the Steelers are a dumpster fire than the Lions are a landfill fire.
Which seems accurate.
Good for Zach.
Measures other than height aside, he supposedly had a decent NFL "grade" that guided his decision. I'd like to know the details of that.
Also, someone please alert the Albuquerque journalist who whined about his move from QB to TE.
Good for Zach.
Still waiting to see the qb to tight end to DEEP pass.

O'Korn threw one in the Purdue game when Speight got split in 2.
Steelers like Michigan players.
Bush Gentry Foote Woodley
Toussant
Touche.
Never heard of him.
Jerame Tuman
Higher than I expected. Congrats to him and good luck. He definitely has the tools to be successful.
Agree to disagree.
What kind of contract does a 5th round pick get?
They have to make the team. I think he will get a small signing bonus for coming to camp, and if he makes the team he will get a contract. From memory of watching the HBO show (Hard Knocks), they cut these guys pretty regularly. I believe there is a matrix online, but I think 1 - 4 get contracts, and 5 and down don't. He is in a good spot, they lost their starting TE in FA to the Lions.
Lions are becoming TE U
