GET-ME-A-DB-TD Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Seems like every week we are eliminating talent to pick up a project with the 8th pick. I personally feel that Gregory's recent oops will wash him out and the fact that Dupree is from Ga alone will eliminate him due to the temptation with $ now added to the equation. Is it possible we just don't draft a pass rusher with the first? Would you really be that devastated with Amari Cooper or Landon Collins or a TE/RB?

Francis York Morgan Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 With Amari Cooper? Yes, that'd suck. With Landon Collins? I'd be alright with that, honestly. With a TE/RB?Also, people just have different opinions and they're going through all of em, nbd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterBateser Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 If we get Collins @8 I will be done with this draft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think the best option at 8 may actually be OL and Scherff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lornoth Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 If it's just Dupree or Gregory, I'd much rather go Collins or Sherff. Wouldn't freak out about White or Cooper either.TE or RB would cause me to flip out just a bit though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GET-ME-A-DB-TD Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 I just don't see any way we'd RB, Coopers college career was unreal and a good TE wouldn't kill us. I honestly would rather just wait till our 2nd and take Kikaha. His med history is BS. Crap happened two year ago and he's been wreaking he!! For two years since.id be happy with anybody but a second tier pass rusher honestly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trubirdfan4life Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 It really doesnt matter, we will get one of them and we will be on the way to building this defense. Whoever it is, its gonna take time for them to develop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roncatto Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I think people forget that as players that we covert stocks rise, that the teams before us are interested as well.Also we are not the only team needing pass rushers.Jags have no one.Redskins lost OrakboJets need one to compliment that awesome D lineBears need oneThat's your 4 gone right there.However, I am convinced there will be trades into the top 8 his year. This alone might help us out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby.Digital Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Anyone saying there OK with Landon Collins at 8 should be on your ignore list. Just terrible value. He's not even a elite prospect and projects as more of a SS than FS. Taking him to be a FS is such anti Quinn thinking. We have to go edge rusher at 8. As much as I was against Dupree I'm starting to warm up to him a bit because re watching some of his games I do like his first step and closing speed. But he is a big risk. My big board for our pick is:BeasleyFowlerGregory Dupree One of the 4 will definetly be there. All these guys have great potenial with Beasley being closer to a finished product. Fowler would be #1 for me if we ran a 3-4. Gregory and Dupree athletically are elite for there positions. I just like Gregory's length and fluidity more.
