Tuggle'2 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 If we cut him we lose out on the comp pick we'd possibly receive for letting him walk.I didn't realize that. I had no dog in that debate anyway. Quite a few people seemed adamant we drop Quizz. Sounds like an amazingly stupid idea when you factor that in now.

Miller2Rison Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 i wanted to draft a RB in the 2nd or 3rd round last year. RB is def a need for this team, SJax is at the end of his career, Quizz is likely in his last year, Snelling is retired. We need a big bruiser Michael Turner type back and could still use Smith as our "speed" back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Day Hoe Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) I like Hill. He has some character flags but looks like a legit workhorse back that could close out games and punish the defense. Could he slip to the 3r or fourth?

takeitdown Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Another thing, I heard a scout today say Bill Belichick once told him this is how it works, you draft traits not production.What do you guys think of this?In the early rounds this is less true. In the 3rd (or 4th) and later, it's definitely better to draft traits. A good all around guy is probably a backup in the 4th. Whereas a speedster at WR could be immediately useful in subpackages and may develop later. Same with a nickel backer. Receiving back.Much better to get someone with one good trait you can use immediately in the midrounds...if they become a full fledged player, great. If not, you still get to milk that one skill.

JulioisCoolio Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I didn't realize that. I had no dog in that debate anyway. Quite a few people seemed adamant we drop Quizz. Sounds like an amazingly stupid idea when you factor that in now.That's probably why we kept quite a few people like Osi, Biermann, Spoon, Quizz, ect. They're all FA's next year. We could possibly be loading up on comp picks next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedBlackandRed4Eva Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 3rd-Tre Mason (might not be there) 4th-Seastrunk (praying he is there) 5th-De'Anthony Thomas (Only if we have addressed our pass rush, RT, and FS needs)I personally believe traits vs production only applies to offense. No way am I gonna draft a 1st-3rd round defensive player on just traits. I need to know if that mofo can play or not. The Boston Hoodie Man hasnt really been known for his prolific defense anyway.

roman42 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) I believe I just ready today Wilder just got arrested, it was a bench warrant for a suspended license so not that big a deal, maybe our second 4th round pick, Charles Sims, Edited April 14, 2014 by roman42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romfal Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I like Sankey, Seastrunk, Sims, West, McKinnon in no particular order. One of them should be there in the 4th. Theres some other good ones a bit later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring It Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Terrance West is the kid they're hoping to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Culain_04 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 If you guys haven't watched the Terrance West videos you should. He was rarely tackled by the 1st person he faced, and looked to be a very good receiver.I would love to get him in the 4thI think James White is a real possibility in the 5th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lju713 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 How would you feel if we took West and White in the 4th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Culain_04 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 How would you feel if we took West and White in the 4thI would be fine taking both of themI'm not sure about White's blocking, but West will be a very good blocker IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4dabirds Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) One of the insiders said what she was told we would draft a RB in the 4th or 5th round, possibly 3rd. She said we aren't concerned with S Jackson durability and liked what we seen at the end of the season from him. Said Quiz was in the last year of his deal and we will draft a RB.With that said who do you guys like and want around rounds 3-5?Steven Jackson always looks good at the end of a season, when there is nothing left to play for and no pressure to win.We need a RB that is a dynamic presence on offense. I like Charles Simms, because he looks durable, has good hands, speed and just looks like he ready to hit the NFL. Simms looks like he has Lesean McCoy and Marshawn Lynch type of qualities.

Clark Kent™ Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) Its gonna be Terrence West or Charles Sims. Change your top 20 accordingly. Edited April 15, 2014 by Clark Kent™ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Charles Simms, because he looks durable, has good hands, speed and just looks like he ready to hit the NFL. Simms looks like he has Lesean McCoy and Marshawn Lynch type of qualities.Lynch and McCoy are two totally different types of backs. Also, big backs like SJax are almost always more effective at the end of games and the end of seasons because everyone else is struggling with nicks and bruises and fatigue. And to quote the great Jimmy Johnson "Fatigue makes a coward of all men" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like quizz but he's to slow to be a change of pace back. The definition of change of pace back should mean slow down the falcons when he comes in the game. lol (IMO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayrockthabarber Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I want either Lache Seastrunk or Charles Sims. I DO NOT want Terrance West. 1. He played against lesser comp. 2. He doesn't have the break away speed we need. He's pretty much looks like Quizz but he isn't as shifty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
