2nd ROUND PICK???

  • it wouldn't make my draft but Mays in the 2nd would be awesome. he's a Rob Ryan wet dream. he's fast as hell for 230 lbs and QUICK. i like him in run support too--he can tackle when he wants.

    he claimed they [uSC] basically wanted him blowing people up (which resulted in being probably his biggest knock) but regardless i don't have concerns about whiffs or bad tackling.

    at 6'3 he could probably cover any TE and the flexibility he'd add is worth the price of admission i feel. swap out the other safety and the pure speed we'd have in the defensive backfield would be NFL elite.

    Haden, Mays, Brown, Wright with depth all day i'm in.

  • If we're looking to solidify the d backfield, mays isn't the guy. Bad instincts and constantly gets caught peekin in the backfield. Not my cup of tea. We have elam, so I guess I don't see the need to add another one dimensional safety.

    Allen, burnett, jones, wright is they go safety here...but id seriously consider bolstering the dl first

    well you see what ryan's brother is doing here in ny and all the pontifs are calling it one of the best d's in the league. adding the next best safety in the draft makes sense to me. corners that can cover and safeties that can hit. no brainer. the dl position in the draft is much deeper now that the top notch corners and safeties are gone. i just hope we DON"T go qb here. if holmgren wants one this year there's still pike and lefevour. i still like pike better because of his size. 6'6" and 225? come on now.

  • Pete carrol passed on him...it much more than a no brainer. The good cover safeties are gone...mays is a liability...like elam...imo

    just cuz he played for you doesn't mean he was the highest rated. we all know berry and thomas were higher rated than him.

  • Sheldon at free and Mays at strong?

    It could work, I guess. I'm more worried about Sheldon playing FS than Mays at SS.

    I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride

  • wasn't pickles rated higher than tebow?

    An arbitrary rating by "experts" means nada. Safeties are asked to cover in ths pass first league...something mays can not do. Frankly, I'm sick of giving up the big play.

  • now that Taylor Mays would be surrounded by a coaching staff of defensive geniuses with newly implemented counter-offensive theories they might be able to coach him up a little and help out with those instincts.

    fortunately, he's got the make-up speed to aid him while he learns the pro game, and once he gets a feel for the NFL...this guy has a high ceiling.

    i like Elam off the field-mentoring, keeping morale high, and providing solid depth if needed. but i'll take anyone that can improve upon our current starters, obviously.

    im in training right now so im not sure if he got picked but Lamar Houston would be a dream pickup. Jerry Hughes is right up there too.

    Id like to get McCoy but i would try to hold off until the 3rd it wouldnt break my heart if we didnt get him figuring I like Zac Robinson better.

    Lamar Houston is a one-gap player. He doesn't fit the Browns' 3-4 (even though I love me some Houston). Zac Robinson isn't even in my top ten QBs. He makes horrible decisions under college pressure. His arm is average. Jerry Hughes went to the Colts (great player).

    I think Houston would look good as a 3-4 DE hes a freak athelte that is pretty raw but were not in hurting for a starter right now so it make sense.

    Robinson is pretty raw but he has an above average arm and I really like what i saw in the senior bowl. Picking him up late would be the best value in my opinion.

    I forgot about golden tate hes my favorite wr in this draft id bust a nut if we got him in the 2nd

  • Wow....TJ WARD ???? Couldnt we have gotten him later? Hmmmmmmm.......

    yeah, its a head scratcher. He can hit, dont know much else about him. seems to have an injury problem. Can someone weigh in on this?

  • His injury history is insane

    T. J Ward is a player. He fills a need. This is good.

    Seattle needs a RB, they most have thought they would've taken him

    1st Ezekiel Ansah, DE, BYU 3rd Darius Slay, CB, Mississippi State4th Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma5th Earl Wolff, S, N.C. State6th Lucas Reed, TE, New Mexico

  • Why did we draft a RB? I don't understand that pick unless there is something else in the works.
