I'd take Allen in a heartbeat but I think you're hope that he'll be available at #17 is not realistic. He's a Top Five prospect all day long. Being picked in the Top 10 is worst case for him.

Reuben Foster has the most entertaining highlight tapes going. I love the way he plays football. But he's coming off of rotator cuff surgery and I'm concerned that with his smallish size and the violent way he plays that other injuries may be expected. That's why I would draft Haason Reddick ahead of him.

McCaffery could be a near-perfect fit for our offense, if used properly. He's also terrific on ST. I have no problem with him at #17 but he plays offense rather than defense and he's not a bell-cow RB.

Cook has a fumbling problem and he's a POS woman beater. I don't want him, period.

There are other players I'd draft at #17: Haason Reddick, Malik McDowell, Chris Wormley, Tre'Davious White, Jabril Peppers and a few others who would need to fall in the draft.
I like Reddick but feel like he is a gamble bc he is gonna have to change positions so I need a stronger floor . Again I like him, don't love him. Jabril is a freak, but where does he fit?This is a like him, don't love him.

Wormley I would be very disappointed with at 17. Malik McDowell would be a better pick, but when you show a lack of passion for the game, you cant go at 17. I think you could move back and get White. He would be disappointing pick at 17.


Allen stock has been falling a little bit. Depends on the offensive players rise in the draft...WR, TE, RB and QB.

What's so interesting in this run up to the draft is the striking differences of opinion among not just fans but among the experts on numerous players at the top of the draft.

One thing most of us can agree on is that this draft is loaded with talent, at least through Round 3. I think you could make a Top 100 list, print it out, throw darts at it and get three good players.

There is a lot of talent imo...and I think where the talent lines up fits our needs too.

When its comes to the first round:

Its interesting because everyone been talking defensive players in the first round up to about 2 weeks ago. All of a sudden, here comes the QB and RB talk. IMO, 2 QBs could go top 10, 2 WR before our pick and possible 3 RBs and I think safely 1 TE will go before us. Also at least 1-2 O-Lineman will be chosen before us. Now think about it...all of a sudden there could be more Offensive players taken than Defensive players taken before out pick. Its quite possible several quality defensive players could fall.


I like Derrick Barnett...I probably would put him at #4 for me. I think he would be a quality player.
