Re: 2015 draft??

Id love Peters if he was there in the second but i cant see the front office taking anyone with character issues this year.

Didn't he put his hands on his coach?.

Id take him like a shot if he has sorted his head out or that was false reporting though

Re: 2015 draft??

two case examples

- Peters guiding influence is Marshawn Lynch to get his head straight

- Dorial Green-Beckham influence is his brother who moved in and kicked his butt back on the straight and narrow.

think i would roll the with family.

Yep, heard that. I wish the Saints would consider him, but i understand. To get him at 31 would be legit.

7 WR Amari Cooper Alabama 6-1 211
Drew is all about timing and route running is key. trying to make up for thr JG trade here to make him feel better. victor was of the board

12 - 20 146 2nd in 2016 to cleveland

12 OT La'el Collins LSU 6-4 305

31 ILB Stephone Anthony Clemson 6-3 243


33 OT Jake Fisher Oregon 6-6 306

cap issues? nope and a boat load of picks still

Tenn 1st 2016 conditional in 2017
Jets 1st 2016 and 2nd 2017, LG Evan Mathis, Sam Bradford,
Miami 3nd 2016

Target Draft 2016 QB Connor Cook Michigan State

Evans is trade bait right away. same with Stafford. Browns offered a #1 for him. so let them draft a QB we like in the draft and trade later after he is signed?

Micky would shoot me for this draft.

now run the ball!

Re: 2015 draft??

So I looked up clips from the top 12 ranked receivers for the draft. And I like them in this order


1.We're not getting him but given the conference he has played in he is clearly the best of the bunch

Amari Cooper

2.In the head to head game with Amari he had the better game. However its one game and he plays in a rather defenseless conference but he should be good none the less.

Kevin White

3.This is the one I like I feel we can get. He is not projected to go in the first round and his two big games against the SEC West's two top recruiting and also powerhouse rivalries is eye opening

Sammie Coats
And this should say more about him

4.The receiver that is the third projected but I have him fourth. There were some things I didn't like here that I thought the other three were better. He does not have any great reels against the likes of the better ACC teams. He'll still be great but I think the top three will be even better.

DeVante Parker

5.Well I thought highly of this guy though I don't think he played at all in 2014 with Oklahoma. However, here's his game against Auburn. As the game grew on, he did not have the longevity but maybe this is where he would need coaching on. As someone said SP is not likely to draft him due to his character issues.

Dorial Green-Beckham

6.This guy has the makings to really good and maybe coming from a medium school he would want to play harder but that hasn't translated with former teammate Storm Johnson. And it is Florida also, a place where character is in question. But I liked what I saw. However, he did not do much against the biggest team on his schedule in the bowl game, NCSU.

Breshad Perriman

7.This is one we should definitely get. He has size for sure and is thought of as a tightend. I don't trust a lot of big ten play though. Eric Decker looked good for Minnesota but he is ultimately a number 2 receiver.

Devin Funchess

8.He's small, so injury risk is a concern until he gains more weight. But he's had some big games and one was against the SEC's best.

Devin Smith

These are behind the cutoff as there's too much to not like about them.

9.Tony Lippet

10.Rashad Greene

11.Nelson Agholor
He's good at this though
But this is something I needed to show

12.I thought this might be another one I liked but after seeing his clips, I just was not blown away and the conference is a concern. Furthermore he does not fit our team better than the one above.

Jaelen Strong

So with that said based on what we can get. I like Coats, Perriman, and Funchess if we cannot get the top 3.

Re: 2015 draft??

Lol at coates #3. His drop issues can just not be overlooked. Rather have a sure handed wr then someone with bulk or speed which is the craze for Coates. Saw it in the senior bowl as well. Pass.

Parker could end up being the best wr from this class & he along with White have higher ceilings than Cooper. Have no problem saying that. We have a smaller version of cooper in Cooks. Cooks game against Green Bay really shows some similarities.

Strong that low is laughable as well.

Lippett has always intrigued me, versatility he played for Michigan St was awesome. Two way player(CB/WR)
needs to polish his game so he wont go til rnd 3 at the earliest.

Re: 2015 draft??

Benjamin's knock was also hands and he was one of the best rookies last season. I just don't want a developmental project and believe Coats performances against LSU and Alabama shows he has what it takes to get up for big games.

Strong plays for the pac 12. I'm not gonna lie. I had Cooks not in my top five last year. I thought Watkins, OBD, Benjamin, Evans, and Robinson were better and four of them did play well and made more big plays than Cooks. The other one played on a bad team. Thats not to say Cooks is not good but as someone else said he may not be a true number 1 type of receiver. Cooks played for Oregon State. I think NFL defenses are just way more impactful than college defenses but with five star defensive players in the SEC and ACC and playing against such most of the season they prepare a player well for it.

If we draft Strong he better be ready to beat coverage because Brees usually makes some of his best plays to receivers in between defenders. Can Strong deal with that?

If we're not looking for a number 1 receiver then thats fine any of them can do but the more they weigh the less injury prone.

Kelvin Benjamin added two more drops Sunday to take his total to 11 for the season.

he makes a huge impact WHEN he catches the ball but the issue remains. I am still glad we did not draft him. he just does not run the tree as well as we need WR too.

Strong I like for one huge reason above all the WR in the draft. He is the best i have seen in a few years at catching the back shoulder throw which as we all know Drew has mastered and relies on heavily. ASU lived on the back shoulder throw all year long.

possession wide receiver. AKA Colston
He’s reliable, athletic and quick off the snap.
He’s not polished or a burner
Big Question out there is effort. Over used or just gets sloppy?

He is good enough for teams to consider trading back into one to get because after him there is a bit off a talent drop off

But if the phone rings and a team wants to trade up to 31 and they are in the top ten of round 2 you have to consider it.

If there is no player worth reaching for in round 1 i would trade out
