OK, just announce we're taking Garrett....

  • The fact that Garrett competed today at his pro-day, when he easily could've Jadeveon Clowney'd it, makes me feel much better about his motor. I'm still not 100% sold on him, but today got me closer.

    We need so many good football players at any position,need really does not matter. Garrett has been the biggest name in college football past 2 years. Not many can fault us for taking Garrett #1..but watch what happens when & if Garrett fails. "THE BROWNS did not do their homework on this guy". Garrett to me is the safest pick at #1. followed by your Cali guy Solomon Thomas than Jamal Adams..28 days to go..No Wheel-lies

    The Browns are really high on Hooker as well. They made from 12 up to around 6-8 range and give up a second as well.

    It's seems that this years draft has solid finds thru maybe 2.5 rounds. I like the fact that comp. picks (4th) our now trade-able. But this FO has also build ammo into 2018 draft that they may very well use in small slide ups for a more talented player like in Hooker at a need..Draft Capital is a nice thing to have. just depends how they use it..you can end up with 26 football players such as Scooby in 2 drafts vs 10 true football starters as in Hooker..Build thru the Draft was their statement..It's Showtime!!

    I'm reading more and more how we're super high on Malik Hooker. Although I desperately want Hooker on this team, I'm a tiny bit scared we'd consider him #1 overall. We need a potential elite pass rusher so badly, but have you SEEN our safeties? LOL.

    I'm really kind of joking...I don't THINK we'd ever consider a safety who is currently recovering from two surgeries for the freaking #1 overall pick. That being said, I wouldn't rule out the Browns trying to move up from #12 in an attempt to grab Hooker somewhere in the top ten. I read San Fran is extremely high on the guy as well, but picking a safety at #2 is almost unheard of, isn't it?

    I'm perfectly ok with trading in the first round, AS LONG AS we don't muck around with the #1. I want Garrett. I want the 6'4, 270 pound terror who runs a 4.62 40 and jumps 41 inches. I haven't done this in a LONG time, in fact, I can't remember the last one I went out and purchased....but if we draft Myles Garrett...I'm buying the jersey immediately.

    ... or even a little more, but fuck "solid". I feel like we did solid last year...

    Even if solid was the first time in a long time last year, this year I want "outstanding".

    Garrett is this years Clowney.

    If you want him get him question is who wants the #1 this year? We can still trade down a couple of spots and get a blue chipper.

    We suck at the trade down, lets just take the best guy for once.

    We have just sucked at picking players.....trade down (Gilbert...remains to be seen about Coleman), trade up (JMZ and TR), staying put.

    Garrett's official numbers now in: 40 in 4.57 and 4.62, and had a 10-6 broad jump. He stood on the rest of his numbers from the combine.

    4.57 are you kidding me?

  • jiggins7919J jiggins7919 wrote on last edited by

    I didn't read 4.57...but Jesus. Just watched a video of him running the 40 with his shirt off and I almost crapped my pants. He almost doesn't look REAL. And I know, I know...there's WAY more to football than just looking buff, but I'm assuming it doesn't hurt to be faster than hell and extremely strong either.

    Not sure there are actual "officials numbers", from the pro days as they are all hand timed by scouts (could be wrong). The teams tend to value their hand timed numbers more than the officials at the combine though (hence they do their own times even at the combine when there will be officials) because they don't get to have electronic times on everyone so instead of doing an apples to oranges comparison they prefer to do an apples to apples comparison on everyone, but there is definitely a human error involvement especially when getting down to hundredths of a second. Looking at the scouts numbers on the surface isn't very telling because their style could be biased towards faster or slower times, and you would need to compare that scouts numbers across the board on a large number of prospects to get any real meaning out of the numbers, when nitpicking the 40 time down to a few hundredths of a second. This year at the combine the unofficial times were pretty much the same as the official times, but I remember in years past all the times were significantly faster than the official times.

    How would Texas A&M defensive end @MylesLGarrett stack up against the AFC North?
