Re: 2015 draft??
My most recent draft from Fanspeak
Round 1: Shaq Thompson - OLB - Washington - Does he fit into a 3-4 defense? Not really. But he's a good football player at a position we need an infusion of talent, and he can add some weight and be that edge guy for us.... hopefully Round 2: Denzel Perrymen - ILB - Miami -arguably the best ILB in the draft. Good feet, active hands, agile, uses leverage and fast enough to play in coverage. May not have the idlea "height" tho Round 3: Reese Dismukes - C - Auburn -Rimington award winner and overall quality center. If he beats out Lelito, then Lelito can play guard and backup the center position Round 4: Steven Nelson - CB - Oregon State - Good instincts, fast, tough and plays with a chip on his shoulder like he's the biggest guy on the field. We need toughness and a punishing attitude in our secondary like Seattle. He also had 3 passes deflected in the senior bowl Round 5: Shaquille Mason - G - Georgia Tech - comes from a zone blocking scheme but was dominant at the Senior Bowl during the week. If he pans out, the center of the Oline could be Lelito, Dismukes and Mason in the future Round 6: Stephone Anthony - ILB - Clemson -fell to the 6th round in my Fanspeak draft and grabbed him up. He gets the job done. Perrymen and Anthony as our future MLBs? Round 7: John Crockett - RB - North Dakota State -small school back who racked up 2000+ rushing yards and had 30 receptions. Played in the East-West Shrine game. Good vision, good hands, multi purpose back. And in round 7, can't complain with a potential sleeper |

To me he is all or nothing and to draft him and he fail would set the D back badly.

Read that he's a team player and great locker room guy, plus great athleticism (played OLB, ILB, Safety and RB last year). Fast, very good in coverage and a student of the game... I've read. All things we want to hear about regarding a football player. And if he's as versatile as they say, Rob Ryan should be able to put him in positions to be successful. If we drafted him, I wouldn't be mad

Re: 2015 draft??
ok lets compromise here
OLB SHAQ THOMPSON WASHINGTON CB MARCUS PETERS WASHINGTON slide stops here Rob swears he can keep the kid in line. job is on the line now ILB STEPHONE ANTHONY CLEMSON OT ROB HAVENSTEIN WISCONSIN 6'7" 332 5.39 here is my compromise for RT, typical Wisconsin lineman OT TAYO FABULUJE TCU 6'7" 335 5.03 Jumbo set OT that can do some fill in at DT also. RANNEL HALL CFU SR 6005 200 4.45 WR/KR/RB does anything you ask of him and produces. round 7? OL Cole Manhart, Nebraska-Kearney, (Sr); 6' 5", 304 lbs John Crockett - RB - North Dakota State works for me |

Re: 2015 draft??
More draft analysis has Shaq Thompson playing a SS Joey Browner (aka Kam Chancelor role)...
With the personnel we currently have under contract, that may mean Kenny Vaccaro and Shaq Thompson would be up for the same role... |
