Re: Dream Draft
 

I don't like that I rather Trade back to the bills get the 9th pick and take Bradford and get and extra 2nd and take Charles brown USC and Jason fox miami that way we get 2 OTs and the franchise QB we need

Re: Dream Draft
 

sounds great to me. i dont know enough about the draft to gauge if it is feasible, but it addresses what i deem to be our needs. possible qb and rb for the future, and plenty of O line. make it so!

Re: Dream Draft
 

Yea I highly doubt they would trade up but I'll play along:
22nd: Charles Brown-OT-USC
37th: Jerry Hughes-LB-TCU
42nd: Mike Johnson-OG-Ala
48th: Dexter McCluster-RB-Miss
111: Dan LeFevour/John Skelton-QB

I was just kidding. I was big on Mack last year and i'm really pulling for a draft that includes McCluster.

OLB/DE G Hardy in the 3rd........... oh, nevermind

[quote=DBUCHANON101;656352]OLB/DE G Hardy in the 3rd........... oh, nevermind[/quote]

We already picked up a good DE with the 3rd.

Re: Dream Draft
 

Patriots drafting up into the top half of the 1st round? It is a dream...

Re: Dream Draft
 

The Pats usually would not make this trade. That said, it would be sweet to have 4 picks in the first 48. Gerhart would be great but he might go lower than the 2nd round. And when I see Colt McCoy I see Kyle Orton.

Re: Dream Draft
 

[quote=Ruhskins;656368]We already picked up a good DE with the 3rd.[/quote]

Yeah for a 4-3 set. now we need a OLB for the other side opposite RAK. Can Jarmon do it? or will he need to bulk up and stay at DE? or is he now viewed as a wasted pick due to the change in scheme?

Re: Dream Draft
 

jarmon is a waste now

Re: Dream Draft
 

jarmon could be a 3-4 end i think. hes pretty big for a defensive end.

Re: Dream Draft
 

No I don't like that scenario particularly well. We relied on elite LT talent for years w/ Chris. He's gone and there's no reason to pretend we don't need another guy like him. 4th overall almost guarantees us the best LT in the draft this year. Take it. Draft a legit RT w/ the 2nd rd pick and we're literally 50% better on offense. Shanny will draft a RB too and make him a star.

As to Jarmon I think he's about 270 and when you look at his frame well there's room there for growth. He could easily bulk up 10 lbs in muscle and be a legit DE in a 3-4. I think this is something to hope for. With the massive infusion of talent our offense needs just to get back into the middle of the pack any additions to defense seem unlikely.

Re: Dream Draft
 

Trade our first round pick and 7th round pick to San Fransisco for their 13th and 16th overall picks

(1)13th Sam Bradford QB
(1)16th Charles Brown OT
(2)36th Terrance Cody NT
(4) Matt Tennant OC
(5) Adam Ulatkoski OT
(Compensatory pick) Mitch Petrus OG

Re: Dream Draft
 

Most Offensive HC's want to bring in their own guy. I wouldnt be surprised to see Shanny bring in a bradford and draft a OT in the snd or go after a FA OT.
he usually likes the mobile linemen so i guess Okung would be out of the picture.
I would NOT have a problem with
Berry
McClain
Suh
Haden
Okung
with the 4th selection.

I wouldn't say that

Pass Protection -1 -Plays with great balance, mirror-and-slide ability and awareness in pass pro. [B]Feet are a notch below elite.[/B] [B]Gets set quickly[/B] in pass pro. He is capable of consistently getting set wide and shutting down the perimeter versus speed rushers. Shows long arms and big hands, which he uses well to keep separation and sustain.

Run Blocking -2 -Takes solid angles and shows good initial pop. Has long arms and a strong upper body to control defenders. He's big and shows above-average strength as a drive blocker. [B]Consistently reaches the second level on time and shows the ability to hit the moving target[/B]. Only knock is that he occasionally struggles to lock on and sustain, which can be rectified with better hand usage in most instances.

Re: Dream Draft
 

Good points everyone. I like the McCluster pick, I was torn between him and Gehart.

I know the Patriots won't do that Trade unless someone they Really want falls to 4. G. McCoy maybe, sine Woilfolk is probably leaving??? Who knows.

I think I addressed everything though. 3 Offensive lineman!!! A QB and a RB in the top 4 rounds, I would love for that to Happen.

I'm completely against Bradford/Clausen at number 4. I really want Suh or Okung if we stay. Either will be a centerpiece for a long time.

Re: Dream Draft
 

Does anyone honestly think that Okung can be a "zone blocking" tackle? I have not seen enough film on him to be certain. I am asking a legitimate question "are his feet quick enough and is he quick enough overall"?

Re: Dream Draft
 

I'm going to throw this out there....why does everyone seem to act like we have no RB's? Portis old and injury prone, most likely gone. Betts and Rock are both just as old as Portis so if Shanahan is looking to get younger and faster then most likely they are gone as well.

Believe it or not Ganther is a good runner. He handled himself rather well. He was able to to make people miss him one on one and was able to be the power back we needed when it came time. Did you guys not see the same games in which he ran into a hole and would come out the back side for more yardage? or be overwhelmed by defensive players only to move the pocket. I think in Shanahan's system with a more updated blocking scheme and better, younger, healthier OL, I can see Ganther doing well.

Shanahan likes Alridge. I don't care how much you guys don't, or how much you guys think he's gone....Shanahan raved about him to Vinny. We have picked him up, cut him, picked him up, cut him, and picked him up. The last time I'm betting it was at the behest of Shanahan. I'm positive he will have a roll for that little speedy RB. Either taking it to the edge or simply getting him the ball in the open field beyond the DL and LB's.

If we can trade back and get more picks and still get the people we want I'm all for it. I do like the OP's scenario other then the RB pick. I might have gone either another OL, 3-4 LB, or DL (NT if possible).

[B][U]Draft Report on Okung (from WalterFootball.com):[/U][/B]

2010 NFL Draft Scouting Report: Russell Okung
Russell Okung, 6-5/300
Offensive Tackle
Oklahoma State

Russell Okung Scouting Report
By Matt McGuire

Strengths:
Very good height with long arms
Thick, strong lower body
Extremely high level of athleticism
Patient pass protector; does not overextend
[B]Great lateral agility[/B]
[B]Quick kick step[/B]
[B]Consistent footwork[/B]
Nice ankle/knee flexion
Surprisingly physical run blocker
[B]Light on his feet[/B]
Highly experienced since true freshman year
Very durable - 34 straight starts
Understands angles
Recognizes stunts and blitz assignments
[B]Gets to second level[/B]
Leader
Tremendous upside
Week 1 starting left tackle
Franchise player
Potential No. 1 overall pick

Weaknesses:
Occasionally gets too high in his stance
Needs to gain a little more upper body strength
Sometimes loses focus (bored with competition?)
Can be inconsistent with leverage
Room to improve hand punch
Must redirect at a higher level in NFL

Summary: I noticed Okung last summer when watching tape on Brandon Pettigrew and I pegged him as a potential star in 2008. He has all the makings of a Pro Bowl-caliber left tackle and has the upside to potentially warrant a No. 1 overall pick. If he can hone his technique slightly over the summer, I would be shocked to see him fall out of the first five picks next year barring injury. Okung has practically everything you look for in an offensive tackle. Last name pronounced OH-KOONG.

Jarmon weighs 274, they said the main thing he needed to do was bulk up, because his bench press was very weak. that says to me that he could easily get to the 280s. I think hr could be a good fit as a DE in a 3-4.

Re: Dream Draft
 

I don't see the Pats as a possible trade partner because they are happy stockpiling late first and multiple 2nd round picks. They traditionally trade down, not up.

How the eff does a guy playing professional sports, weighing 270, have a weak bench press?! I've worked out in gyms for 15 years now pretty consistently and observed the weaker guys be able to bulk up and build strength w/ discipline and hard work.

You had me until I seen Gerhart, you got be kidding, this guy is some RB Stud Blocker, he is no way a franchise running back, to take him that high, he be there in the 5th and 6th round for peanuts........ This hard on you guys have for Gerhart is down right funny....... There are at least 6 other backs, in the draft that are better than him, I'm sure Shanahan, want pick him anytime soon. Gerhart, thats fu#king funny.

Re: Dream Draft
 

[quote=WaldSkins;656734]Is that a compliment or bust on Quinn[/quote]
just a comment on how he was one of the handful invited to the actual ceremony and kept getting skipped over when he was being mentioned as a top 5-10 pick, not really anything on what he's done since

Relax its a post, he could be a stud and you have absolutelty know way of knowing. Gehart is projected in the second round in most mock drafts. He could be a stud or a bust like EVERYONE ELSE. But after posting I would rather have the D. McCluster from Ole Miss.

Re: Dream Draft
 

I am happy we picked up Jarmon. He benefitted from learning under Phillip Daniels and if he happens to train with Daniels in the offseason he will be very strong next season.

Me to, I just hope Daniels ain't back next year we need to get younger although i think he would be good in a 3-4.

Re: Dream Draft
 

Jarmon is about 20-50 pounds too light in the ass to play DE in the 3-4

Re: Dream Draft
 

[quote=Angry;657040]Jarmon is about 20-50 pounds too light in the ass to play DE in the 3-4[/quote]

If the Skins go to a 3-4 defense, the real question might be if Jarmon can play linebacker in that defense. He would have good size and skills for that position. For example, the starting OLB's in the Ravens' 3-4 defense are Jarret Johnson at 6-3, 265 and Terrell Suggs at 6-3, 260.

I had a dream last night that the Cardinals trade up with us to get a new QB, and we get a good tackle late in the draft!

I think it depends on Jarmons ability to drop in coverage and lateral quickness to move to LB in the 3-4. He would need to drop down around 260 and he might benefit with some added quickness. In the 3-4 is London a good fit a the ILB spot?

Re: Dream Draft
 

switch 1st round pick with buffalo at 9 and also get their second round pick over all number 41 and with the 9th pick select Anthony Davis, OT, Rutgers

Re: Dream Draft
 

^ I like that idea as well, and knowing how bad Buffalo needs a top QB prospect, I actually see this happening, and I am happy with those kind of results!
