As you can see there's a whole lot of them. I probably missed a couple too.
I don't really get why we needed this list, you don't really explain anything and you seem to have basically included every single DL and LB prospect in the draft, but if you want to do it, its ok.
Thanks bro. Your comment was really worth the read. It was probably worth more than my list. The insight you offer is incredible, and I'll be sure to change.
There's at least 10 guys on the list that don't fit into the 3-4 scheme at all. Another attention whore...I mean speculation...thread.
Ah but here is the difference between my comments and your list, I explain WHY I don't think this list is needed. Your list does not offer any Why each player was selected.
So who (of note) did you decide to leave off, and why? I'm trying to come up with front 7 prospects I know of who aren't on the list. Navorro Bowman?
He's on there. Names not there: Houston Sapp? Probably. Schofield - But that was an oversight. Paul Pierre Worilds I forgot Lonrezo Washington from Alabama. There's an underrated prospect.
Why though? I know it'd be a bitch to explain it for every person on that list, but like an explanation on a few standouts would be nice instead of ANOTHER list thread.(Not saying it's only you, I'm sick of list threads in general)
I don't give a shit who's on the list...you constantly bash Carlos Dunlap in almost every thread where he's brought up, yet you say you'd love to add him to our front seven? This just proves that you're an attention whore. What's sad is this: you have the same player(s) multiple times on the list, some of the players have no future at all in the 3-4, and there's no explanation at all as to why you included them on the list... The average guy that comes into this forum doesn't know who 98% of those players are. They come into this forum to learn about them - not just read their names. It's a pointless list to the average joe.
He's actually not on there, so don't waste your time, man. Navorro Bowman doesn't fit into the 3-4 scheme. He's best suited for the 4-3...and he has the tools to be a damn good 43 backer. I don't think he's heavy enough to shed blockers and make plays in the 3-4.
He literally has no idea who's on that list - it's hilarious. This thread is making less and less sense with each one of his posts.
List threads bore me. I don't care about the guy's name. I'm not a huge college fan, I'd prefer you separate guys into 3-4 OLB pass rushers, 3-4 DE's, and tweeners.
Why wouldn't I want a guy with his possible size speed numbers? Sure, I think he plays like a girl but if they draft they obviously think they can make a man out of him. Possibly. Doesn't mean he'll be my favorite Jet. The guy does play like a girl for a guy his size. I admit he has tons of upside. And why is it that you feel the need to announce a thread is below you? Why don't you just not post in it? Top 10 3-4 DEs: Suh - Duh. Jones - In the mold of Luis Castillo. Can get stronger and gain weight, and should do so in the NFL. McCoy - Might be overrated...I'm weary of OkSU DT too. Odrick - Would be a great 3rd round pick, but I still think the first is too high. Oghobaase - Has prototypical size and skillset, but hasn't done much to inspire confidence this year. Neal - Very, very stout player. Will be solid for whoever drafts him. Wooton - Developmental DE in the mold of Chris Canty. Carrington - Stout guy who can add more weight to his frame. Reminds me of Ellis a little... Deaderick - Same as Carrington, but not as good an athlete. His teammate, Lorenzo Washington, could easily take his spot. Geathers - Projectable frame and upside remain his pluses. Theres maybe another name or two that could replace him at 10. Top 3-4 OLBs: Graham - Durability puts him over Hardy. Extremely well coached and from a good program for 3-4 players. Hardy - Would be the best DE period in this draft if he were health. Griffen - Kind of forgotten right now since it's not combine, but explosive and from a big program. Lang - Really well coached player with good size and athleticism. Really loose athlete. Norwood - Plays OLB and is really good at it. Selvie - Experienced college DE with good size, projection, and current tool set. Could fly up with a big combine. Kindle - Played LB in college, but very raw. Right now more of a measurables guy. Witten - Very fluid athlete. One of my favorite sleepers. Hughes - A little overrated. Can/will go high, but has alot to polish. Very explosive. Cunningham - Better player than his more hyped teammate. Pierre-Paul should be on there, but I'm not high on him. There difference between them gets smaller a I move down the list. Misi is also really interesting... NT: Cody - Beast potential. I think he's a character guy and wants it. Williams - Does want to be a good player, but lacks projection. Robinson - Has projection. Very good athlete for a guy who can develop into a NT. Thomas - Has a NT's body. Very strong. Long arms. Troup - Built like a box. Small school sleeper. Udofia - Biggest DT on the Staford DL. Made himself draftable with this team's strong performace. Al Woods - Developmental. D'Anthony Smith Jay Ross - Developmental. DeMarcus Granger/Kade Weston - Developmentals. ILB: McClain - Best LB prospect since Willis. Norwood - OLB/ILB more than DE/OLB, but enough of a pass rusher to play DE. Weatherspoon - If he really is 245 a 3-4 D can figure out how to use him. Edds - Excellent athlete with good size and projection...again someone who can fit multiple schemes. Spikes - Polished player. Can play any LB spot in any scheme. Similar to Bart Scott. Sheffield - Like Norwood, playing OLB in college helps make him an ILB/OLB prospect as well. Stout, and extremely good athlete. Gibson - Very good athlete and pass rusher who played LB in college. Can also play OLB. Angerer - Stout guy...underrated athlete. Bowman - Really good athlete. Stout. Sharpton - Miami U LB. I was high on Tavares Gooden and he's starting for the Ravens. Sharpton will continue the lineage. Favorite 3-4 DE: Oghobaase Favorite DE/OLB: Graham/Hardy Favorite NT: Thomas Favorite non-McClain ILB: Edds Depth chart of dream team: DE: Oghobaase/Neal NT: Cody/Thomas DE: Suh/Jones OLB: Hardy/Kindle ILB: Edds/Spikes ILB: McClain/Angerer OLB: Graham/Griffen For those who just love to be bitches about everything, it was done for fun and to show that this draft has a shitload of guys who can play in the 3-4. Electric, who are some of these some guys that can't play in the 3-4? I picked every single one of them because I think they have the size speed numbers to make it, and not to toot my horn but I somewhat get this rock science stuff this is. I am merely a grasshopper compared to you sensei. You, who knows all, must tell me who these guys are and why they can't play in a 3-4.
