Need for Speed....
 

I know we need a lot more than what I am bringing up. But if he is around in the later half of the draft, do we pull the trigger? With speed like that
Auburn's Corey Grant runs blazing 40 times at pro day - NFL.com
That is fast

Oakland drafts real fast players ;)

If we fill all the voids before then I'd be ok with it.

Re: Need for Speed....
 

He didn't do much with all that speed at Auburn.

I'm all for speed on defense though. We're painfully slow at LB and SS.

Re: Need for Speed....
 

Guys who didn't produce in college and run great 40's rarely translate to the NFL. Ex LSU DB Chris Cummings ran a 4.3 and a sub 10 sec 100. No NFL production. Joey Galloway would say draft him though.

Almost this entire defense is slow

10'7" broad .
22 bench

Good point on Auburn production. He says he can do multiple duties but that kinda didn't materialize on the field even with all that speed. Wish him the best but think he's a long shot.

Re: Need for Speed....
 

To me, past the 4th round is a gamble anyways. We could draft 3 Qbs from that point on for all I care so long as the voids are filled. Who knows maybe that player is the next Tom Brady.

Re: Need for Speed....
 

Speed won't prevent two defenders from being in the backfield every play.

Re: Need for Speed....
 

I just brought it up because I think he is a better option than Cadet.

Re: Need for Speed....
 

And cheaper than all the Bush rumors.

Re: Need for Speed....
 

i was a bit shocked at weight. might have bulked up a bit for the pro day. strength was a surprise and the rest of the numbers were very solid. now this will cause teams to go back and look at tape for sure. Auburn had talent but much like LSU they just do not seem to get the right mix at the right time that often. coaching? team? or player?

Re: Need for Speed....
 

I hope this is the year that Cadet gets cut, and hopefully it isn't even a decision because the new guys are drastically better. Next years RBs 1.-Mark Ingram, 2.-Khiry Robinson, 3.- Pierre Thomas, 4.-TB/FB-Kenny Hilliard, 5.- FB-J.C. Copeland(Ironhead)
