Re: 2014 NFL Draft
Odell Beckham - has SP type of player written all over him. my gut says he odds on favorite
Jarvis Landry - i stand buy what i said. he is the best well rounded WR coming out of college. I see a lot of Anquan Boldin in his game. |

Re: 2014 NFL Draft
The sucky part about being a good team is not being able to grab a top ten pick every once in a while...
LB Khalil Mack looks to be a BEAST... But I'd rather reload than do a Ditka in the draft... Usually don't like the risk/gamble of a cornerback in the first round, but really like how CB Justin Gilbert, OK St, could add/complement our squad... |

They traded away 2nd overall in 2for Washingtons 6th pick (then flipped that) 2nd rounder and 2013/2014 1st rounders(2nd pick this year). All together 2012 Traded pick 2 for pick 6 and a second rounder. Pick 6 was traded to the Cowboys for pick 14 and a second rounder. They got Michael Brockers DT Isiah Pead RB Janorious Jenkins CB 2013 Traded Washingtons pick and there 7th for Atlantas 1st,3,6.Then traded there own 6th and the clowbs for Houstons 5th. They got Alex Ogltree LB Steadman Bailey Zac Stacy 2014 Washingtons 1st (pick 2) That is great wirk from the GM |

2014 NFL Draft
Hagan and jeanpierre, I want your opinions on something. Of course we don't know what will happen in free agency, but if Vic Beasley and Kyle Van Noy are both available when we pick and we still have a need at OLB... Which one would y'all rather we draft? I've read countless mock drafts and those two seem to be the most common picks for us. I'm leaning towards Van Noy because of his abilities in coverage and he can play ILB if needed.

He's the same guy we have in Junior Galette from what I've seen with maybe a slightly higher ceiling; he doesn't warrant a selection by the Saints... Van Noy is one of those guys who's got the film but GM's may be afraid to pull the trigger in the first or upper second round because he doesn't have those combine measurables to reinforce, explain the argument for selection... I've always preferred Sammy Knights vs Reynaldo Turnbulls; just gotta see where a prospect can apply his gifts to the game to give him an edge; rather have a guy that makes plays with his smarts and pushing his talents every week to the extreme than wasted "potential"... If he's there in the third round, I'd strongly consider Van Noy; but where we'll be picking in the third - he should be gone and really like a couple of safeties grading in the second round to transition from the Harper/Jenkins experiment that has failed miserably and to complement Kenny Vaccaro and Rafael Bush so that we shore up the backstop... For me, those big gashing plays are still fresh in my mind... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

that bring us to Van. i like him a bit better as a steady player. he is hard to judge because like Beasley when he played top competition he kinda disappeared. if i had to pick from only these two i would cross my fingers and go with Von. reason versatility and pass coverage skills. there are others i would look at in round one. FS jumps out at me along with OLB. we need to get bigger and fast. |
