WiscoFalcon Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 (edited) One of the best pass rushing prospects in quite awhile. Been following this kid for years. If you had to give up a similar ransom like we did for Julio Jones for Myles Garrett would you do it? Could be the answer for the pass rush we have been looking for since Abe left. Personally, I don't think I could do it if we had to move up from like pick 15 to the top 3. What say you?

usmcdirtybird Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 If we address areas in free agency then I would do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Architect Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 My bias for the player says yes but realistically it seems to be a deep pass rusher class. We could just end up with someone else that isn't much of a drop off in comparison without trading up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quotemokc Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 It depends on how far we have to go. We need all the picks we can get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomFan Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 We're going to be drafting in the high 20's at least, so no way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lornoth Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 We've been drafting well the past few years. We've even been finding real players in the late rounds. I don't think we can afford to give up many, if any, picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sui_Generis Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Keep the picks, draft , and then develop. Stick to the plan. Our team is young and getting there. So I say we be patient and enjoy the ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maorifalcon Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 I'd love to but a technician like Johnathan Allen would be what we are after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 I'd have to wait until the end of the season to assess the progress of the pass rush. But regardless, the 1st pick should be DE or DT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby.Digital Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 (edited) Yes. I have no faith in this staff to find a passrusher and until he do so this defense will be a sieve. Garrett is as close to a sure thing there is. No character flaws, awesome work ethic, elite athlete, elite production and a game that translates to the next level. He's the best pass rushing prospect to come out in a long time and fits our system to a T. Edited October 1, 2016 by Bobby.Digital Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Daywalker Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 **** yeah trade up for a once in a decade DE prospect like clowney? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngbloodz Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 No. Would cost too much even if we had a top 10 pick. A lot of teams will want Myles and that will drive the price up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butudontseeme™ Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Not for nothing but Chuck Smith Says Arden Key is a better pass rusher than Garrett. Said it on Dukes and Bell today. Said Garrett will still be a stud though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally they trade up for quarterbacks and occasionally wide receivers. Could you imagine if we gave up a bounty to get Garrett and he turned out to be a bust. We would never live it down. Not even just if he busts, but it has to be considered he could be injured on any given play in a way that stunts his production throughout his career. It's too risky.

Still a bit undersized but not as drastic. http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/index.ssf/2016/09/how_does_auburn_plan_slow_lsu_arden_key.html Size seems comparable to Leonard Floyd. How is he doing in Chicago? I haven't heard much about him. Edit: forgot to paste article link Edited October 1, 2016 by Krosis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
