Reunited: New draftee Hroniss Grasu 'can't wait' to play with Kyle Long again

[playthrough2001]

"Chicago Bears GM Ryan Pace and his scouting staff liked what they saw on tape, and what they heard from coaches regarding former Oregon center Hroniss Grasu, whom the team drafted in the third round with the 71st overall pick.

Pace had one more person to ask before he made his final pre-draft decision on Grasu, according to an article on ChicagoBears.com. That was Grasu's former teammate at Oregon, and Chicago's current right guard Kyle Long.

"We kind of had our evaluations in," Pace told the site on Friday. "And Kyle Long just confirmed all those things when we talked to him."

Long and Grasu did not play together for too long, as Long did not become a starter until his senior season. But, the offensive linemen formed an incredible bond.

"Can't wait to play with him again," Grasu said on a conference call when asked his feelings on reuniting with Long. Grasu also talked about his excitement, and how prepared he feels to play at the next level."

Grasu and Long are going to be bonified leaders for the O-Line going forward.

Line play improves considerably with cohesion, similarity and camaraderie... Plus talent!

You're just behind the times a little. That was the correct spelling in the pre-Madonna era.

They won't be starting next to each other long once Long gets moved out to right tackle...

 

[1000ftditka!]

Ahhhhhh always back to Boners!

This could be a very good Draft pick....if he turns into our new Olin Kreutz (with a little less..... homicidal tendencies and anger management issues) The guy is smart....wicked athletic.....could put on 10 pounds....likes to shop for antiques with his BFF from Oregon......what's not to like!

True Bromance!
