Connor "holy crap!" Barwin
-
According to one report, Barwin ran a 4.49 40 at his pro day. Not sure how fast a track they have in Cinci, but that's an impressive time on any surface.
At Georgia's pro day, Knowshon Moreno ran his 40 in the high 4.5's - low 4.6's. WR Mohammed Massaquoi timed between 4.47-4.52, significantly better than the 4.6 he ran at the combine.
Also, Matt Stafford supposedly was excellent at the beginning of his workout but then struggled with his accuracy on deep outs. Sounds like he may have done some damage to his draft stock.

I'm really starting to like Barwin. I hope we can get him in the second round.

I have been wanting this guy. I would take him over Clay. Getting him and Maualuga would be great.

Figured I would add this link on Florida Pro Day results...Harvin keeps looking better and better.
Kind of wish we were in a position to select him.

Me too. If Crabtree is unavailable??

Not at 5....now if there is something to all the Jets/Cutler talk, and we ended up with the Jets pick at #17 and whatever else for Quinn...then Harvin starts to make real sense.

Our defense has been suspect ever since we came back, we seriously have a chance to upgrade the talent on defense to get the ball rolling for the long term. I wouldn't pick offense in the top part of the draft unless it was a tackle,guard or center.

And he was supposed to be a defensive guru

We can draft Barwin to play LB and if he doesnt work out we could put him back to his natural position TE

Barwin has Vrable written all over him. DRAFT THIS GUY!!!

absolutely....
furthermore, im even more comfortable to trade edwards......
edwards is a mental with a case of the dropsies, and stallworth barely made the field (and didn't do squat when he did).
so, i see no practical difference between 2 overpaid players that are ineffective and 2 average players that may or may not be effective.
im not so disillusioned to think edwards is a #1......thats laughable.

If you want to take the best player available and draft an impact player with that high draft pick then you take Crabtree. You can get Barwin at #36. And, how much more of an impact would Orakpo be over Barwin. If Barwin is gone there will be simular OLBs available at #36.
My first option would be to trade down, but as we stand now, I would take the best player available if I had to pick at #5. There isn't a defensive player that would be available at #5 that would have the impact of Crabtree.

The only thing I am saying is that I don't think Crabtree will have a huge impact on our offense if we draft him. Instead we can load up on defense that way the new guys will have a full year playing together . Next year when we go offense in the draft we will have a defense to back up the new offensive guys.

According to this board I think we "must" draft about 23 players, all of whom are going to be gone in the top 50.

Maualuga and Barwin are must haves IMO. If we can trade down and pick up an extra pick it would be great.
1st Maualuga
2nd Barwin
2nd Chung or Moore @SS

I understand your point here was to say that Harvin isn't a #5 pick, but how does drafting a kid who made his career off of turning 5yd screens & sweeps into big plays (with the occasional post & corner route) fit with keeping a QB that can't make those throws?
He's Wes Welker, but probably faster.
