Re: 2014 NFL Draft
I'm not sold on him. He seems to be one dimensional and we need a DE/OLB that can stop the run as well as rush the passer.

Re: 2014 NFL Draft
well Moses screwed the pooch yesterday at the combine.
ten yard split of 1.95. pro day will be huge for him. dropping like a stone i guess on boards. I thought he would have had a better showing. put the pads on and he proves he can play ball. back to earth for all the hype. RT 2/3 round. Maylock called it. the one that may have solidified himself to a top 50 player is Joel Bitonio OT/OG Nevada 6'4" 302 Arms 33 7/8 broad jump at 9 feet, 6 inches. three-cone drill in 7.37 seconds 20-yard shuttle drill in 4.44 seconds. 40-yard dash 4.97 seconds. 10 yard splits of 1.68 and 1.74 seconds bench press 22 reps Could he be the one to sneaks into the first? always have a couple. He fits in at RT/LT for zone blocking schemes and teams with a short QB? |

Re: 2014 NFL Draft
I've a question, sort of outside the box. Instead of drafting BPA, or Need, what gain could be made from drafting according to draft depth?
I know it's a fruitless exercise because you can't ignore the salary cap but "what if" you decided to to a reload of a certain position? Imagine dumping and completely reloading at WR, or dumping and reloading at RB. What about drafting 3 WR/3 RB. What would or could our offense look like next year? |

You can then geaux out and make a trade (i.e. Ivory) to address a need (i.e. Move to 34 Defense needing Behemoth NT > John Jenkins)... But it's definitely a valid point... |

I chose RB and WR specifically because I don't see 1 veteran player at either position that isn't questionable. As I see it, Stills and K Robinson would be the only two returning players in those positions. We could pour any cap savings into the line or defense in FA. |
