Round 1 OLB - Jarvis Jones(Alt. pick - Mingo) True he could be a risk coming off an injury but if cleared by doctors he will be menace on the Defense and really that pass rusher we have been looking for he is big,fast and WILL get to the quarterback I know alot of people are saying he won't last until pick 9 but I beg to differ most teams 1 - 8 will still hesitate due to the injury but for us he is a big need and of there is a major break Round 2 HB - Gio Bernard(Alt. pick - Stepfan Taylor) Watching recent tape on him he proves to be the best WCO running back option In the draft he isn't a big back but his vision is amazing compared to our back field now something we have really lacked since older backs we picked up like Thomas Jones and LT. Gio hits the holes he is given well in stride has a good cutting ability and is a soild punt returner which we could use noting Kerley muffed 2 punts and called for Fair Catch more then any PR in history Round 3 S - Baccari Rambo(Alt. pick T.J McDonald) That name has to be one of the best names ever. Better then the terminator this S is 6-1 and can play zone well I watched him play in the Senior Bowl he played up to expections he runs a 4.4 and has a good vertical he is a good pick Round 4 OL - Kyle Long(Alt. pick Jordan Reed) Watching him play in the senior bowl I was impressed with him but it wasnt enough.. So I began watching game film of him he has very good foot work and his a solid player he can switch direction in decent speed and can protect the QB but his strong point is run blocking he is a tremendous run blocker I could see him in round 4 because he is more of a sleeper in the draft and can turn out to be a great pick I understand Chance Warmack is the best OL player in the draft but he will be a Top 10 pick and there are other positions to address while we can still progress with a round 4 pick here Round 5 CB - Tryann Mathieu(Alt. pick - Denard Robinson) Revis has been helping him out and we have shown interest he has off the field problems and I could see him falling to round 5 he is a great player and has a nose for the ball and would be a great Slot CB meaning we could move Wilson to safety at least until we find a permeant replacement. Round 6 TE - Chris Gragg(Alt. pick - Cameron Lawrence) If we don't pick up Jordan Reed... He is a 6-3 tall target and isn't seen as an elite pick in the draft because of his leg injury which is why the Arknasaw player will fall to the 6th round but he has great hands and runs a 4.5 I find him extremely athletic and if he is cleared he could be great. Round 7 DE - Wes Horton(Alt. pick - Shamarko Thomas) He is a tall 6'5 200 -sum DE who had a good 3 seasons with USC he isn't the fastest but is a depth chart guy sort of like Devito.. A good rotational man. Should look to keep the good defense we have had rolling on the right path Reason I didn't put any type of WR is because we already have 2 young WR with upside. Reading different articles I really see us addressing WR problems with FA.
I like the players and the positions, but unfortunately I think Jones, Gio, Long & Mathieu will all be gone before their respective picks.
Some could be a stretch but hopefully we trade up on some picks and stock pile this talent this years draft is a althetic class.
Trading up is what has got us in so much trouble to begin with. I also think the players you have us pegged for round 1-5 will be long gone by the time we pick in those positions.
Don't see Jones as a Jet. He doesn't have the body to play in a 3-4. He's built like Maybin, looks like a safety
He's not really built like a safety, but you may be right... Jarvis Jones: 6'2" 242# Clay Matthews: 6'3" 255# Aldon Smith: 6'4" 258# Brooks Reed: 6'3" 257# Connor Barwin: 6'4" 258# Ahmad Brooks: 6'3" 259# James Harrison: 6'0" 240# LaMarr Woodley: 6'2" 265#
Any draft that has us taking Jones and Gio im a big fan of. Don't see either guy being available for us when we pick though.
1) Joeckel 2) Moore 3) Lotuleili 4) Fisher 5) Werner 6) Milliner 7) Johnson 8) Geno Smith 9) Jarvis Jones maybe?
Well I wouldn't say it is probable that Jones, Gio, or Mathieu are there at those spots, they are all certainly possible. All in all, I'd love this draft very very much.
I see Gio as a slight possibility ... Just depends who need what and how urgent it is. I could see us trading back to the 1st round late and getting him. Domontre Moore as a pick possibly ? Out of Jones and Moore which ever OLB gets picked first I think the other one drops a few picks doubt they get picked right after each other.
You do realize that's all he's ever played in. He was a 34 OLB in HS and at UGA. Are you sure you aren't thinking about his teammate Ogletree, who originally signed with UGA as a Safety?
Not confused about Jones. Good player bur you don't see 240lb 3/4 olb. I see him as a weakside lb I a 4-3
He's plenty big to play strong or weak side olb in a 4-3... Not sure how someone could question that. look at the sizes of the other olbs coming out this year. He's one of the bigger ones.
