Re: 2014 NFL Draft

The Miami Dolphins are looking to trade Dion Jordan for a 1st round pick in order to try to rebuild their O-Line... So here's a question: Will there be a better prospect available when we pick 27th than Dion Jordan? The guy was the Anthony Barr of last years draft and the Dolphins miscast him as a 4-3 DE. Something to seriously consider.

Re: 2014 NFL Draft

Dion Jordan ??? over hyped and over drafted much like Ingram was. If they take a third for him it is possible

Dion Jordan, DE for the Miami Dolphins at NFL.com

stats prove it. dolphins bought in hook line and sinker and traded away two #1 to get the kid. sound familiar?

unless you really think it was truly the scheme and playing for the dolphins was the core of issue.

Didn't like him then either; he's a classic case of why you must factor in the "measurables" of height, weight, drills - he was too small a player for his position to be drafted that high...

I believe Niklas is the best Tight End in the draft...

UNC Ebron compares to Vernon Davis; he'll make some great plays and absolutely affect individual games, but he won't be a week-in-week-out player worthy of an early first round selection...

Texas Tech Jace Amaro just schiott his pants at the combine - his pro day will be pivotal; up until his combine disappointment, he looked alot Aaron Hernandez (on the field)...

Austin Seferian-Jenkins?!? First of all, pick a last name. Give the equipment manager and the rest of us a break. I'll help, geaux with Jenkins and you'll have a great marketing moniker in "AJ". Jenkins also just had surgery and there were already questions if he could produce against professional adversaries as he did in the junior varsity league known as the Pac10 sans Stanford...

Niklas actually compares to Graham in alot of ways with one major difference; he's the best inline blocker among his contemporaries. For those of us who know when Graham is lined up in certain positions that Drew is gonna check out of a run and spare the viewing audience the disaster that is Jimmy Graham blocking, now you have a legitimate threat and you have the defense honest rather than jumping the play...

I'd really like Niklas as a second round pick...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Re: 2014 NFL Draft


Really like this guy - got his second chance and he looks confident, yet humble; bet the Saints liked their interview with him...
