I just don't like Taylor at #10. Not when we have other needs and there will be better players on the board there. Along with a NT we need another pass rusher to really make the 3-4 work. I'd rather take a LB/DE at #10.

Don't reach at #10. We have enough other holes to fill we can get someone who is a good pick at #10. Reaching is the worst thing we could possibly do.

I agree about the NT need. The thing is, if we played our cards right we might be able to get a player at #10 AND still get Taylor or Paea.

As to the question of the thread, I would love to have Ingram. But at #10 I'd rather feed the front.

Even if you did pick him with the #10 spot, who the hell would open the running lanes up in between the tackles? A RB at the #10 spot is a horrible choice for a team with so many needs. Our DL needs some serious upgrades.

I could start a list of RB's that got it done without a great O-line. Lets say we upgrade the D-Line, what do we do about a QB, RB, WR? Either way we need both. Personally, I would rather start on the O side of the ball.

Get me AJ Green at WR, Ingram at RB, Newton or Locker at QB to start.

Start that list and chances are it doesn't go past 3 names. (sanders, campbell, dickerson are the only three that come to mind)

So you are going to remotely compare this kid to those 3 I mentioned?...lol




Also, I don't feel there is a QB worth a 1st round selection this year. It's bad when Mel Kiper even says he doesn't feel any of these QBs in the draft are "franchise QBs". LOL @ your Cam Newton. If anything, I think I've shown enough material to prove my point about red flags, and this kid has a shit ton of them. I'll say it again, the team that drafts Cam Newton expecting this kid to play in the first 2 years are going to be set back 4-5 years. Let's hope it's not this franchise, we know all too well what having a lame QB can do for your franchise. (shuler, ramsey, campbell, brunell)

Portis can go on that list. that makes 4

Guess we watch it play out and see.

BTW, I would rather Locker than Newton but we got to get started somewhere...

Wrong. We had a good offensive line (Samuels, Kendal, Thomas, and Jansen ring a bell??) We see what happened to Portis once that OL started to falter. (Remember 2009 season??)

I think Locker fits our system better than Newton (or any other one for that matter), but I wouldn't value him as a 1st rounder either.
