Draft Talk
-
they should be alright, providing they keep Pryor and Hawkins........in time, Coleman and Higgins should be adequate.....and Devalve is looking better and better everyday......great catch last week....possible heir apparent to Barny?
As our "can't block" TE? Sure... I would really would like to see him at H-back. Feel like he could create more problems for Ds working out of the backfield.
That said I still have a dual-purpose TE on my wishlist. Thought we missed the boat on Fidorowicz a couple years back. He really came on as a receiving TE this year for the Texans.
Sorry guys... but I disagree.
I agree, Po... Gordon still has a shot, but our FO is not exactly betting the farm on his return... and who can blame them? Even should he clear his personal hurdles there still the matter of how much of the player we saw burst onto the scene in 2013 is still there. Even his kind of talent has a shelf life.

Right.....Ive been one of the few to keep hoping for his return and thinking he'll turn the corner......but.....argh.....Ive given up hope on this guy.....not even a flicker in my mind anymore......
If he shows up....actually makes it through camp......and then plays some real games.....I will be shocked.....
I think....based upon his flashes this past preseason.....that the shelf life on him is still fresh.....
It's been mighty quiet on the Josh Front of late- Not a peep ...... he did look mighty good in the little we saw of him preseason. Built us up with expectations- again. .......Then the big crash.
He looked GREAT......!!!
Amazing talent.....amazing waste of talent......just amazing.....

Let's say just for kicks.
We draft Trubisky and Fournette. We resign Pryor and we get Gordon Back. We can draft either Pocic or Elflein at the top of the second round.
QB- Trubisky, Kessler
RB- Fournette, Johnson, Humphrey
WR- Gordon, Pryor, Coleman, Higgins
OL- Thomas, Bitonio, Elflein, Erving, Paztor
I think that would be a really strong offensive unit.

McMillan might not be declaring. Also, he's projected mid round at this point. Spending a high 1st rounder on him isn't good value.

Jake Butt tore his ACL in the bowl game and will require surgery. That sucks. I liked him as the follow up to Barnidge. Hopefully he can come back from it.

That hurts. Heck of a player and I was hoping the Browns would take a long look at him.

Can't help but feel Peppers was feigning injury. Being up in the booth texty texty and NOT on th sidelines with your team mates? Fuck that.

I missed all that i guess, didnt watch any of the games yesterday. But stsly you'd be upset if we ended with peppers and didnt have to use the 1st pick on him? Im certainly not advocating him anywhere near the 1st or 2nd pick whichever we end up with, but fuck if he's there at the eagles pick? I mean if we go with a QB, allen and garrett are gone by the 10th. If we take allen or garett than the QB we might want also "prob" is not there at the eagles pick either....sooooo we'd be upset with peppers still?

Here's what you do......
Take Allen or Garrett first.....
Trade up a spot or 2 and grab Peppers....
Trade a #2 and next years 1st for Foster.......
Then, do like last year(with the WR's) and draft 5 DB's.....
And.....like majic......defense fixed......

Ooooo, trade up for peppers? Dont get me wtong im intrigued but my initial reaction was a bit of a bhole clench......whoch is never a good sign. Something feels off about that prospect....but on paper yeah dear god.
If we traded up then boy, we'd abs have to adress o line in free agency. My only hedge about trading away picks is we have so many fucking holes still to fill

Demarcus Walker looks like a freak tonight (granted, just going up against a bunch of overrated white dudes). The depth of pass rusher in this draft really makes me balk at going with Garrett #1 overall.

No one has our OL as overrated because no one (that knows what they're talking about) thinks they're that great. Believe me, our OL is average.

Well, you're wrong.
He clearly didn't fake the injury. You think, as part of his master plan, he faked an injury yesterday (hurting his own team because they practiced for weeks exepcting him to be there), got dressed knowing he wouldn't play, faked looking hurt while warming up, faked being pissed off he couldn't run and then faked a post game interview where he was clearly crying and frustrated he couldn't play? Really? You really think he did all of that to get out of the bowl game?
Harbaugh apparently told him to go up to the both. Peppers was very emotional and frustrated he couldn't play. Harbaugh deemed it a distraction. Not to mention the cameras would be following him all night.

After watvhing a full game from allen im more middle'ish now between him and garrett. I still saw today a really strong mofo who can hand fight, just stacks and tosses guys. Made really good plays against the run. So im still ok with taking him. Reason im now more ambivalent is that he didnt show that burst off the line that Bosa had if we gotta compare.
Bosa too liked to come off the line, read and shed....but he also could fire out and catch ol setting up for his power game. Allen has the same strength just not the same dynamic toolset that bosa did. Garett on the other hand isnt as strong but his upside a few years from now if ge develops properly.....could be hof type stuff. I dunno anymore between the two.

Garrett declares for the draft. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2016/12/31/texas-a-ms-garrett-declares-for-nfl-draft/96050580/
"I will play for any NFL team that gives me a chance and they will get my very best effort."

Cmon....are you really gonna hold that one comment against this guy?......
Supreme talent and character......who happens to prefer a nice climate.....(dont we all???)

I think your speeel checker was made in Pittsburgh or it needs a new battery Clevsies. No worries.
Ray Horton loves to cheat his Safety up into the box and use him like an extra LBer. He had Ward blitzing more than our LBers; and we remember what he did with Pollyneedsahaircut. This kid seems like a perfect fit for what Horton wishes he could do. Like BB prioritizing the Safety position with Eric Turner - I'm sure Horton is repeatedly telling the right people he needs at least 1 NFL caliber Safety to coordinate his defense the way he wants to. Our current Safety position leaves him felling like he's playing gridiron chess with pawns.
There's varied opinions on this kid so if you don't see him play very often - it'll be easy to question if he's overrated. His teammates and coaches that watch film of him every week would tell you otherwise. He's also really good on STs, which we're inconsistent with at best.
That sucked he couldn't play the other night.

Yeah...Im just throwing shit at the wall....but, if we could tap 3 supreme talents like this, it would change the whole face of our team....instantly....
Fuck the couple of middlers we could have had.....right now, Im with quality over quantity.....

Didn't see the interview and reserve the right to change my mind once I do.
The booth shot just rubbed me wrong. Haven't seen that since...? Perhaps the sideline could have used his emotion.
Re: DB's in the draft.
Malik Hooker, please and thank you. Combination of range and instinct is tops in this class.
