Re: 2015 draft??
I'm not saying Gregory should be burned at the stake or anything. It was just dumb... Especially for a guy who has shown he makes very poor decisions. I thought it was a fake Twitter account at first because I thought there was no way this guy who is already being scrutinized would put himself out there like that.
|
Re: 2015 draft??
I don't want Gregory unless it would be at around pick #44. The guy has all the talent to rush but not worth taking a chance on at 13 in my opionion.

Re: 2015 draft??
I don't think it was dumb, it had to be on a visit and he made a joke about the after visit nighttime activities... No big deal
|
Re: 2015 draft??
Really, Really, Hope Atlanta takes Gregory...
|
Re: 2015 draft??
I doubt we touch him at 13, but I could see it at 31.
I think that's what the visit was all about to start with. |

My All-In Mock Draft (Updated)
http://fanspeak.com/ontheclock/premi...t.php?d=breyuk Staying with my plan to move up in the top ten (10) with the best, most viable trade partner, Oakland; at they're only twelve (12) true first rounders... Pick Pos Name, Alma Mater, Height, Weight Pick No. 004 (R1, 04) LB Vic Beasley, Clemson, 6' 3", 246 lbs. (Via Oakland) *1 Other than Scherff, this is the only player in the top 5-10 to truly have the biggest impact on our team; he's gets the edge over Scherff as there is only one question mark on the offensive line, Lelito, at this point and the defense performance demands this pick... Pick No. 013 (R1, 13) (Traded Oakland) *1 Pick No. 031 (R1, 31) LB Stephone Anthony, Clemson, 6' 2⅜", 243 lbs. (Via Seattle) *2 Move Anthony up to this pick as I don't think he goes through the gambit of another round of JAX, CHI, ATL, CLE without getting selected; this defense is in more dire need of an ILB as much as an OLB and Hawthorne has shown he's not the answer regardless of whether Ellerbe can have an impact... Pick No. 044 (R2, 12) WR Phillip Dorsett, Miami (FL), 5' 10", 185 lbs. Amazing Speed and Excellent Tracking Skills while ball is in the air; don't want to deny coach his fun. But Damn, One...ONE DROP the entire season; just can't get that stat out of m head... Pick No. 075 (R3, 11) OG Ali Marpet, Georgia, 6' 4", 307 lbs. Coach said he wanted highly motivated individuals - well this guy through Hobart on his chest and wore it proudly and has improved, showing progression through this entire draft process - Senior Bowl, Combine, Interviews; he may not fall this fall, but maybe teams get scared of the small school, level of competition factory like they did with Armstead and he falls ten spots to us... Pick No. 078 (R3, 14) OT Rob Havenstein, Wisconsin, 6' 7", 321 lbs. (Via Miami) *3 Very much in the mould of Zach Strief; though he had poor measurables, they showed significant improvement between combine and pro-day; excellent candidate to tutelage behind Strief and could be ready by year three when Strief's contract expires; excellent depth regardless; he plays with great functional strength and his Bench Press improvement shows he can get it done in the weight room... Pick No. 102 (R4, 03) DE Corey Crawford, Clemson, 6' 5", 299 lbs. (Via Oakland) *1 Okay, three picks from Clemson?!? I don't care if they all came from the same household; these guys can play; Crawford has excellent size and speed and is getting overlooked because of the awesome talent that's already there; plus, he could come in and offer excellent leverage should the inconsistent Cam Jordan get unreasonable in his contract demands; bottom line this guy can play... Pick No. 112 (R4, 13) (Traded to Seattle) *2 Pick No. 148 (R5, 12) TE Blake Bell, Oklahoma, 6' 6", 252 lbs. Like another kid that once played TE for the Saints, he's a big body with a small sample size, but it's impressive; former QB developing quickly into a red zone threat who could more than offer a rather large bucket to throw for our QB to score in the end zone... Pick No. 154 (R5, 18) (Via Kansas City, Traded to Oakland) *4, *1 Pick No. 187 (R6, 11) CB Lorenzo Doss, Tulane; 5’ 10”, 182 lbs His measurables have started to improve recently; but when you go back and look and his play on the field, what really stands out; he doesn't just defend, he's got a great set of hands and he'll actually INTERCEPT the ball; they're all these great defenders that can't seem to do that; and I wouldn't discount Coach Curtis Johnson ability to get in the ear of his former mentor Coach Payton... Pick No. 230 (R7, 13) NT Deon Simon, Northwestern St (LA); 6’ 4⅜”, 321 lbs. Great big, raw body that with the right coaching would be the steal of the draft; Bill Belichick, who knows a thing or two about defensive linemen, even sat in and participated in his combine interview. Bunkley's last season and to jumpstart another candidate for the NT rotation with Jenkins, we don't have to go far for this in-state product... *1 Mock Trade - NO sends Picks 013 (R1, 13), 154 (R5, 18), & Future 1st round pick (or Gallette or Vaccaro or Jordan) to OAK for Pick 004 (R1, 04), 102 (R4, 03). *2 Graham Trade - NO sends All-Pro TE Jimmy Graham and Pick 112 (R4, 13) to SEA for All-Pro C Max Unger and Pick 031 (R1, 31) *3 Stills Trade - NO sends WR Kenny Stills to MIA for LB Dannell Ellerbe and Pick 078 (R3, 14) *4 Grubbs Trade - NO sends LG Ben Grubbs to KC for Pick 154 (R5, 18). Alternate Selections/Priority Free Agents: TE Brian Parker, Albany, 6' 4", 260 lbs. WR Jake Kumerow, Wisconsin-Whitewater; 6' 4½", 208 lbs. LB Tony Washington, Oregon, 6' 4", 245 lbs. OL Tyler Moore, Florida, 6' 4", 325 lbs. DL Olsen Pierre, Miami (FL), 6' 4", 300 lbs. |

Hokie Gajan's 2015 Mock Draft
13 Saints La'El Collins 31 Saints Cedric Ogbuehi WWL - AM870 | FM105.3 | News | Talk | Sports - Hokie Gajan's 2015 Mock Draft man after my own heart. Cedric is ok still a fan of Jake Fisher especially given he will not be rushed on the field. spot duty and training is what he needs. but i love an x FB going OL who would have thunk it? |

Re: 2015 draft??
Mel Kiper Jr. makes picks as the GM of every NFL team -- 2015 NFL draft
Kiper has us taking Gregory at No. 13, allowing Beasley to fall to Houston at No. 16; plus, he's got us taking Tre Jackson in the second round, allowing Stephone Anthony to Kansas City... If this happened, I think my head and heart would just simultaneously explode... |
Re: 2015 draft??
It's interesting to look back at Kiper's final mock draft from last year:
1. Houston - Jadeveon Clowney 2. St. Louis - from Washington - Greg Robinson 3. Jacksonville - Khalil Mack 4. Cleveland - Sammy Watkins 5. Oakland - Mike Evans 6. Atlanta - Jake Matthews 7. Tampa Bay - Johnny Manziel 8. Minnesota - Aaron Donald 9. Buffalo - Taylor Lewan 10. Detroit - Justin Gilbert 11. Tennessee - Anthony Barr 12. New York Giants - Zack Martin 13. St. Louis - Ha Ha Clinton-Dix 14. Chicago - Kyle Fuller 15. Pittsburgh - Darqueze Dennard 16. Dallas - Ryan Shazier 17. Baltimore - Eric Ebron 18. New York Jets - Odell Beckham Jr. 19. Miami - Ja'Wuan James 20. Arizona - Blake Bortles 21. Green Bay - C.J. Mosley 22. Philadelphia - Brandin Cooks 23. Kansas City - Marqise Lee 24. Cincinnati - Bradley Roby 25. San Diego - Stan Jean-Baptiste 26. Cleveland - Teddy Bridgewater 27. New Orleans - Kyle Van Noy 28. Carolina - Joel Bitonio 29. New England - Calvin Pryor 30. San Francisco - Cody Latimer 31. Denver - Jason Verrett 32. Seattle - Morgan Moses Only what... 4 for 32? About 12.5% accurate. That's actually pretty good for a mock draft but still, what these guys say never really happens. |

Re: 2015 draft??
NFL.com Bucky Brooks was partially correct that the Saints would select Brandin Cooks...
Mock Draft 5.0: Jadeveon Clowney, AJ McCarron to Texans - NFL.com He just didn't mention that'd we move up to select him... |

Re: 2015 draft??
i like the clemson connection too. i fear being small on both wings big time.
draft both but Jr will need to go IMO. you need at least one OLB that can be stout against the run. trade Jr and pick up Vic Beasley then long shot at Alvin Dupree in round 1. longest of long shots. trade up twice in round 1? lets look at other options Round 2 Danielle Hunter LSU might be a solid move. project as a pass rusher sure but solid against the run and above average at blocking passes. on the the flip Eli out of Virgina is the opposite. better at rushing than the rush. Danielle gets my vote. so trade back into 2 wild card developmental down the road Round 5 Emanuel Robinson Newberry. talked about him earlier and i still come back to him. coverage skills are there to work with and solid instincts. two years down the road he maybe a steal. Round 7 Shaq Riddick West Virgina is another. just a high motor guy with plenty of upside i could live with Vic Beasley - i think is a pipe dream Stephone Anthony Danielle Hunter some serious wheeling and dealing to make this happen and Jr and the Bears look to be part of the picture. |
Re: 2015 draft??
In my draft mocks, I really like the idea of taking Clemson's Vic Beasley and protecting him with a monster at DE like Iowa's Carl Davis - that'd become one feared dynamic side of a d-line overnight...
After Davis, another guy who could lock down the end and allow Beasley to roam and wreak havoc is Stanford's Henry Anderson, 3rd-4th round... Another Clemson alum, DE Corey Crawford would also be a good fit for the 3-4 defense and could be had in the fifth-sixth round... Again, we don't need the d-linemen to do anything but occupy blockers and allow the OLB to seek/destroy... |
Re: 2015 draft??
I read that Carl Davis came acrossed pretty bad in interviews at the Senior Bowl. Sounded like he was really lazy and openly talked about taking plays off. I haven't watched any tape of him though... What does the tape say?

Re: 2015 draft??

Re: 2015 draft??
Davis is immovable; tape confirms it...
He's not a heavy stat guy... Misinformation is probably out there on him because teams like NE would love to grab him at the end of the first round... Watch the film - it was very rare he wasn't double-teamed and as rare that he wasn't occupying holding up those linemen for fellow defenders to make plays... |

Re: 2015 draft??
What do people think of Darren Waller. Looks a interesting prospect. If he was there rounds 4/5 i really consider making a move.
Darren Waller*(WR) HT:*6'6"* WT:*238LBS. POSITION:*WR SCHOOL:*Georgia Tech ARM LENGTH:*33 1/4" HANDS:*9" Overview Suspended for season-opening games in both 2013 and 2014 (suspended two games total in 2014) for violation of team rules. Invited to play in 2015 East-West Shrine Game. In 2014, started the final eight games of the season and scored a touchdown in each of his final three games, including an Orange Bowl win over Mississippi State where he finished with five catches for 114 yards. From 2011-13, made 14 starts and played in 38 games. Was a two-year team captain in high school, playing both wide receiver and defensive back. COMBINE STATS 40 YARD DASH:*4.46 SEC BENCH PRESS:*12 REPS VERTICAL JUMP:*37.0 INCH BROAD JUMP:*125.0 INCH 3 CONE DRILL:*7.07 SEC 20 YARD SHUTTLE:*4.25 SEC 60 YARD SHUTTLE:*11.35 SEC ANALYSIS Strengths Yet another Georgia Tech receiver with great length. Plays to his height. Gathers himself and boxes out defenders on fades and jump balls. Uses long arms and gets on his ladder to sky over cornerbacks and high point throws. Effortless strider with untapped vertical speed to go yard. Plus body control. Usually gets two feet in bounds on sideline throws. Plucks the ball with extended hands. Doesn't fear hits from safeties. Almost impossible to guard on back-shoulder throws. Confident and competitive when the ball is in the air. Weaknesses Will lose speed when turning to locate ball. Shield blocker in run game, giving very modest effort by Georgia Tech standards. Raw route runner with limited exposure to complex routes. Rounds off in-breaking and out routes. Needs improved understanding of leverage and how to create separation with it. Allows smaller cornerbacks to crowd him. Forced just two pass-interference calls over the last two seasons. Limited production and targets over career. Draft Projection Round 3 or 4 Bottom Line Late bloomer who is faster than quick and has coveted size-speed combination. Waller isn't just a tall receiver, he has legitimate hands and body control and can impose his size on mismatched cornerbacks. Waller has a low floor, but with a little more competitive fire and technique work, he could become a legitimate touchdown maker in the league |
