Beasley is so much more proven a commodity than Dion Jordan. I wouldn't worry one bit.

I thought the same thing....Jordan was the first person that came to mind.

I want a LB. Who is the next Luke Kuechly? I don't keep up with college football.

Please get a grip. Stop the run already! Who cares about adding another pass rusher when we cannot stop any run including expected ones right up the middle?

I just seem to remember Dion Jordan being so hyped up by analysts because of his freakish athleticism and size moreso than anything he did on the field. It was all about potential with him whereas Vic Beasley has shown over the last two years that he's one of the better pass rushers in the country. I just get the feeling Beasley is less of a boom or bust pick than Jordan, but that's all just my hazy memory and I'm probably way off.

I don't really care who they draft as long as its beef on the line either OL or DL. Got to get some players that can draw a double team on the lines to free up other players.

Re: Dante Fowler DE in latest Mock Draft

Trae Waynes, Vic Beaslet, Shaq Thompson, Donte Fowler, I'd be happy with any of these guys. While I lean more toward getting a LB which we've NEVER been able to find a really good one and is a desperate need for this team, getting a Trae Waynes would significantly improve this team for many years as well. I think any of these guys could really help our team so I would be happy with any of them. My main concerns are the coaches coaching them.

The only thing I have against Waynes is I read scouting reports that emphasize his tendency to grab a lot and could get him penalized a lot in the NFL. Coaches can fix that,but will he still be the same player? I don't see any CB that's worth taking in the first round this year imo. We all want that number 2 corner,but I want to land one good enough to make Lewis the number 2!
