Would you have taken Fournette a couple years ago?

If they have a 1st round grade on him, go for it. I hope they trade back and get him but I think he is pretty far above everybody but Barkley

That is what I don't understand from people, he is a mid 1st round talent, who actually is a better between the tackles runner than Barkley imo and is a perfect compliment to Thompson, if he is the best player on your board when you pick at 13, why wouldn't we take him? People love saying "trade back" trading back is great in theory or when you don't have too many picks but if your guy is there take him. We traded back in 2011 and could have had JJ Watt, but we pick at 13 and 44, 13 people say is too high for Guice, I counter and say 44 we could miss out on the top 5 backs in the draft. (Barkley, Guice, Michel, Chubb, Penny)

Well, that didn't take long.

Just listened to Cooley's film breakdown.

The bottom line is he isn't Fournette. He is a less talented version of Fournette who Cooley said emphatically shouldn't be taken at 13 or in the 1st round at all.

Listen to it and see what you think, it is labeled as the film breakdown on 980 website. No link to the clip.

Cooley also isn’t a fan of Vea or Payne at 13, he did some good breakdowns on them this week.

He’s all in on Ronald Jones at RB, not at 13 obviously

Yea. The Payne Vea hesitancy is interesting.

The big knock on Vea is drafting a player who will play a limited amount of snaps at such a high position.

The second concern is he supposedly takes plays off. BUT, he was playing 70% of snaps at 350 pounds in the college game where there are way more snaps. If the team was convinced it was workload and not work ethic, I would be ok with Vea at 13.

I think he could take a guard or center and put him in the QB's lap in nickle.

According to Cooley, Payne has no rush skills either.

Now is he as talented as Fournette? No, but from a production standpoint I watched every LSU game this season and to say he isnt a 1st round pick at all is asanine. The production is there, he led the SEC in rusbing with Fournette there. Cooley also said just keep picling backs in the 4th and 5th till you find one then said David Johnson was a 5th round pick when he was a 3rd.

Re: With the 13th Pick the Washington Redskins select...

The noise surrounding drafting a RB doesn't match the actual identity of this team....barring a total shift in Jay's philosophy; drafting Guice with pick 13 seems like a necessary reach.

I would go Ridley all day over Guice at pick 13.

Cooley "It would not be smart to draft DT at 13 with this much depth at the pos"

I agree and have said trading back and grabbing one is the best option for us

If Guice is the top guy on their board at 13 so be it, I won’t hate it. But I’ll be hoping someone like Fitzpatrick or James slides to us.

I think the team really believes in Nicholson, he showed some great signs last yr before injury.. I don't know that they have even brought James in for a visit have they?

They can make it work, Swearinger is only on a 3 year deal

True and if DJ plays the same way as he did last yr, he will command a big deal.

Re: With the 13th Pick the Washington Redskins select...

Now if James or Minkah are there, I think they are the pick 100%. But in my mock which carries no weight at all, I have them both gone by 13th unfortunately, and I do not like Vea at all actually

We all know you are really Mel Kiper Man we all do this for fun, and we all have our Mocks so its all good. Keeps the debates up. I still say trading back is our best option
