Re: what positions to draft with 27th an 59th picks

The Play greer was hurt on was a heck of a play by him.But it looked real bad an from what little i could find i do not think he will be back.white is ok for a few games as a starter best at nickle so it depends on Robinson he was a 32nd pick in 2010.Did ryan see enough off him to tell before he got hurt.Bush played well but if Jenkins not resigned if ryan thinks robinson not a upgrade on white then look for a saftey an cornerback with the first two picks.If brown resigns for not much above vet min an strief resigned at fair price i look for a Wr with 91st pick if they not resigned the a OT with 91st pick.

Just let P Rob walk. Draft corner and safety. Oh yeah, cut Jenkins.

Trust - you don't just give it away; pass protection, gotta know it...

Definitely.

Hated drafting Jenkins (wanted Clay Matthews); then he grew on me, but I thought he'd be a better second CB; the mistackles, the mistackles, oh the mistackles - best of luck, j

If he were there in the fifth~sixth round as some mocks have 'em, SP replaces Sproles...

Re: what positions to draft with 27th an 59th picks

Until the combine its difficult to have any idea who goes when.The top picks are likely to be the same but the results of the Shorts-Tshirt wars will chsnge everything from the late 1st to 3rd round picks.

i think the combine mucks up the picture for so many. thats why the mid round rounds of the draft are always loaded with solid players.

Re: what positions to draft with 27th an 59th picks

Starting to feel like DB is a good way to go with the first pick. If we draft a corner, we have insurance against Greer or P-Rob struggling to come back from injury. If we draft a safety we can more easily say goodbye to Harper and Jenkins.

The other thing would be an impact pass rusher at OLB. I like Galette, but if you want to honestly look at his performance he was inconsistent game-to-game. He had 12 sacks, but he had 3 of them in 1 game, 2 in another. What's more, he had 7 games this season without a sack....and 6 of those 7 were on the road. And he didn't do jack squat in either of the playoff games. I am not saying he sucks, but it would be nice to have an impact pass rusher at that spot. Butler is still a complete unknown and Haralson's injury was a bad one. We are one injury away from being in a real bad spot there.

Completely agree
Id much rather scout of game tape than go by the combine numbers.
I often watch parts of the combine while playing xbox or doing other things and keep a eye on it but iys pretty pointless baring the interviews imo.Running .1 of a second quicker might sound great but if you dint anticipated the snap and read the game quick enough its pointless

Why exactly would we need another WR? IMHO the only offensive position we would need to draft that high would be for a bookend tackle to Armstead.

DBs and LBs dropped like flies this year. The team can never have enough.
