Nice work.

Unless a 3-4 team falls in love with his frame, I just can't see Heyward going into the first round. Well heck I'll go on the record and say he's a mid to late 2nd round pick.

Yep, he looks like a 3-4 DE, or perhaps a 4-3 LDE. He does look (and read) like a mid 2nd round prospect.

Most of us only saw him in a game or two, and he played real well from what I saw. But I've read he was mediocre in most of OSU's games this year.

I like him in the 2nd.

#24 is going to leave us a lot of good choices. I think DE or LB should be our 1st choice. We need pass rush and some help for Vilma on the outside. There is a very good chance that we let someone have this one for the right price. Cam Jordan, Aldon Smith, Justin Houston,Ryan Kerrigan, Heyward... I wish I had a peak at Payton's board.

OLB and DE with our 1st two picks?

I'd love it, but since Payton's been here we've never selected the positions we all wanted. I have a feeling there will be an offensive surprise in there somewhere.

Payton likes new toys - offensive toys. We know he'll get him another one.

[Euphoria]

That is just about all Payton does is surprise us who ever we say we like... it is safe to say we won't be drafting them. lol.

We don't trade back with the first round pics either.

I like Heyward though with the pick.

He got himself another one...
