Bcb would hate the thought of cheering on a ND guy

[Jordan Rules]

Gettings a MLB, C, DE, DT, WR, QB, S, or LT are the positions that I would look for in the 1st round.

That isn't even it.

I have no problem cheering for Justin Tuck. I just don't think Eifert is anything more than Greg Olsen. While I think I liked Olsen more than most and miss his impact on this team, that isn't a 1st Rd player. Sefarian-Jenkins of Washington is the only 1st Rd TE in the country IMO.

I'm not a fan of 1st Rd TEs in general. Except for ASF, he's such a physical monster.

[Cub_StuckinSTL]

What if we filled 2 oline holes via FA then how would you feel about it? Plus were gonna basically have a 2nd round pick after we win the sb.

[BCB mwat15]

Meh, we need some young impactful defenders. I just think you can find good value at TE in the mid Rds. Teams are more conscious of TEs because of Gronk, Graham, and Hernandez; but there were still only 2 TEs chosen before Rd 3 last season, both by the Colts. I think we could get similar value out of a Jordan Reed in the mid Rds as Eifert or Zach Ertz in Rd 1.

Highly specific, sir.

[Jordan Rules]

Highly specific, sir.

Point is I don't value a TE, OG, or OLB as first round selections normally. So, the kid from Notre Dame isn't on my wish list for a 1st rd pick. Although with the departure of Rachal, OG may become more of a priority in the draft this offseason.

[Kyben36]

Its sad but Carimi was suposed to sure up one of our Line possisions, that hasnt been the case.

[debo]

Carimi's problem is he can't pass pro because he leans too far forward in his stance and doesn't know how to pass set.


Fix those, and he's fine. They really aren't big issues, but with our OL coach, they have been in the past few seasons.



Oh...what is this? Evidence points toward Tice being a problem? I never would have guessed...

I want to know though what happened between before his injury and now? Was his performance at the beginning of last season a fluke, or did he change something with the knee dislocation and thats affecting his performance.

I don't have a PFF prescription, but honestly I don't think much has changed. He just wasn't challenged in Week 1 last year against Atlanta and he got hurt early in Week 2. I think what we've seen this year is roughly equivalant to how he looked against Atlanta in Week 1 last year.

[Uncbball234]

Heres my draft trade down from the 1st for a 2nd and 3rd
2nd Jones G Bama or Cooper G UNC
2nd Sharrif Floyd (i really want a DT from this years draft its deep)
3rd Larry Warford G Kentucky
4th Jon Bostic MLB Florida
5th Jackson Jeffcoat DE Texas
6th Dominque Easley DT Florida

FA Targets:
TE Dustin Keller, Jared Cook, Martellus Bennett
OT Ryan Clady, Branden Albert, Jake Long
CB Mike Jenkins, Dominque Rodgers Cromartie
RB Justin Forsett
WR Emmanuel Sanders,
DE Michael Johnson

[debo]

I'd say there's almost a 0% chance of Barrett Jones falling into the 2nd.

Depends on what position teams project him at, look at Decastro last year, scouts called him the best guard prospect in the last 10 years and he slipped to the mid to late 20s. I guess to your point with all the injuries to QBs this year OL might be more valuable

[giventofly]

Clay and Long are free agents next year? God I will get so naked and send noodz to Emery if he gets one of them.
