I really really don't like any of the early projected 3-4 OLBs. Pierre-Paul has one year of playing division one ball. He is another workout warrior in my opinion. Listening to him speak I get the impression that books are not his friend... Kindle: I don't like Texas, but I really don't like Kindle. He's a dancer and an arm-tackler and that shit won't cut it in the pros. I rarely saw the guy make an actual hit. I do like his motor though. The guy was always near the ball carrier.
He's a troll looking to pad his posts to start a thread. His life was short on TGG and the hammer came down quickly.
I have a feeling Iupati will be wearing black and gold. Fits their style perfectly. Kids a mauler in the run game. Even though he isn't the greatest pass blocker the Steelers don't seem to mind Ben Rapelessberger getting sacked a trillion times.
I see a lot of people listing running backs and I don't understand why, unless everyone thinks Leon is leaving.
We need a running back even if Washington stays. It'd be a mistake to enter the season with two injury prone backs as our only options at running back.
rumor about him going to the 49ers. may not be anything, but we'll see. This team needs more OL and RB to maintain dominance in Rex's scheme. Very similar to what the Ravens do in their drafts.
I agree but in the first round? If we're going to draft one take the best one available in the 4th or 5th
It all depends on value. If Mathews makes to us at 29, he could very well be the best player available. After reviewing a lot of tape over the past couple of days, I wouldn't be opposed to drafting Jahvid Best if Washington is not on the team in 2010. I'd like to see the Jets go after a defensive lineman or maybe even an offensive lineman in the first, and then hope for a guy like Hardesty, Tate, or Gerhart to fall to them in the second.
Based on talent, absolutely worth taking at 29 Overall, but he's had at least two concussions I know of and that scares me, especially for a RB who takes a lot of hits by sheer virtue of his position. But his talent is unquestionable and to watch him on film you can't NOT be impressed. This kid is a legit threat to take it the distance every time he touches the football.
I know the league has shifted to RBBC but it seems like everyone thinks we NEED 3 good HBs or else everyone is going to get injured and die on field. If LW stays, I have no problem with Greene, LW, and CW.
The concussions happened in the same week. Jeff Tedford is a damn fool for letting Best play in that game where he suffered the major concussion and neck injury. Best bulked up and is supposedly over 200 pounds now. After watching a few Cal games, I noticed that he's a hell of an inside runner for a small back. The concussions are scary, but if he's placed in the right system, I think he'll be a nasty NFL back.
