  • I think Brown is terrific, but I think that of Curry and Orakpo and Raji as a pick, too.

    McCoy over Victor Harris or Sean Smith, the cb's ? No way. McCoy over a big quality ROG or RT ? Nope.

    A change of pace back is already Harrison:

    But many scouts are mixed on McCoy. He has decent instincts and is certainly sporting a nice mixture of size and speed. It also takes a lot to knock him down. On many occasions, his superb balance and control have kept McCoy upright when most backs would be lying on the ground. But he does not run between the tackles very well or often.

    While not running between the tackles is a concern for most starting backs, that does not mean McCoy can not find a place in the NFL. In this day and age of multiple running backs, he can be a great change of pace back who can run to the outside and catch the ball out of the backfield. If he tests well at the combine McCoy could be a first day selection this year.

    it's unfortunate that we're in the cap situation that we are, though i'd prefer curry to bart scott, and would say he's likely going to be at least the kind of player that dansby is.

    i think it really hurts us with guys like suggs and peppers, though i think both of them are likely to be franchised by their respective teams and, in peppers' case, shipped out for picks, and, in suggs' case, signed to a large, long-term deal.

    as far as size goes, larry english is 254 right now, and it seems that maualuga would have the exact kind of size that mangini wants, while frantz joseph and curry are a bit smalller than the kind of guys he likes.

    it would be very frustrating to see us not upgrade the running game. two yards and a pile of shit is no way to win a game.

    I think Curry & Joseph are fine; it's more the OLB's that Mangini likes big. David Harris is listed at 6'2", 243 lbs. (same size as Joseph, smaller than Curry) and Eric Barton's 6'2", 245 lbs.
