Lornoth Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 We have no LB'er depth, as evidenced by Kroy being our only option now that Reed is out. Would love to get someone else. Even the 4'th LB'er sees the field a lot more than people sometimes seem to think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomFan Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) How do you think Quinn would feature Jenkins and Floyd? I don't think we have a chance at Floyd, but you never know.Floyd would probably be used like KJ Wright, at WLB as a future replacement for Durant (who is 30 years old and injury prone). But he's so versatile that he could also play some like Schofield, as a nickel edge rusher.Jenkins would be more like Schofield - a nickel pass rusher, occassional SLB, and occassional LEO.

Faithful Falcon Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Which are only 2 of a plethora of measurables. When he puts up a single season sack record like Houston, then he will be comparable in production.don't forget that Houston is primarily a pass rushing olb. Jenkins plays clean up. He can play the Sam and Mike. He can also play DE. I can see them converting him to a DE similar to Javon Kearse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FentayeJones Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I could actually see us go LB in round one next draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollo lawson Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I remember telling some on this board that we should consider drafting Floyd if he came out last. As usual the message board Mel Kipers said he was too small. A shoulder injury kept him from entering the draft. Now he is a hot commodity!! Who would have thunk it, lol!! Jordan Jenkins is a **** man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iQue Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Floyd probably won't be avaliable when they pick but Jenkins' recent game probably garnered their attention Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdman71 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Hmm. Outside getting oline help. We do need more depth and speed at linebacker. It showed some against the eagles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five_Fifs Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Waasy to early for these mocks to mean anything, but just to get an idea of the talent coming.http://mweb.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/nfl-draft-scout/25301332/nfl-mock-draft-poor-showing-in-week-one-earns-bucs-joey-bosaCBS has Floyd going 18th overall. And no Jenkins in the first.http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/2565935-2016-nfl-mock-draft-post-week-1-breakdownBR has Floyd at 19, and Jenkins not in the first.Sports Xchangehttp://m.wsbt.com/sports/2016-nfl-mock-draft-bosa-to-the-bucs/35304694Sports Xchange has Floyd going at 22.All the sites consistently have him going after Joey Bosa, Jaylon Smith, Myles Jack and Nkemdiche (Although Nkemdiche is a different brand of player from the other 3.)And there are a bunch of good OTs coming and QBs worth consideration..... A small slide may be possible. If we're not drafting in the late teens, trading up for him with a "Trufant-type" package would certainly be worth our while.Another offseason of bargain-hunting scheme fit vets may allow us to sacrifice a pick in the name of a unique talent at a definite need.

putnam6 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 **** TD has been to Wisconsin more times than he has UGA, he must got lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodge_birds_fan Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 That's right, I remember hearing that Saturday. I wonder where he will go in the draft, but I doubt he will fall far.I'll take one for the team fellas. I'm from his hometown. I can sabotage him to make him fall int he draft, but only if I'm assured Atlanta drafts him lol I kid I kidIt would be cool for a Dodge kid to not only play for UGA but also the Dirty Birds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomFan Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Jordan Jenkins could take Scho place if Scho leaves after the seasonWe need Scho to stick around, as long as he doesn't try to break the bank. We have a sizeable amount of cap space. I was looking earlier and just doing some napkin math it looks like we'll have around $28M in space, before cutting Asamoah which is almost guaranteed to happen. That would save us a little over another $1M. Some other moves like Hester or Jackson could push that number even higher. Even if we add someone like Bruce Irvin, we could still find a use for a guy like Schofield as a situational rusher if nothing else. Can never have too many of those guys.
