nice

i also like the skins meeting with skelton i would love for them to try on a late rounder again this year while we are in build mode

whew, I would love if we got Best. He is such an athlete, and he gives his all on every play. What is his personality like, anyone know? Is he a ghetto idiotic dirtbag, or is he a nice, humble person? You know, a U of miami type, or a stanford type, lol.......


I am sure someone will give an example of the exact opposite in terms of attitude......... oh well......heheheheh

I too hope that we find a way to come home with Best in our shopping bag. I think he would be like a young Clinton Portis in a Shanahanian offense.

That's kind of what I thought too. Where do you think we could draft him though? What I mean is, I think we have other needs with our first 2 picks. Do you think he would fall to us in the 4th? I think there will be some quality backs that WILL be there for our forth rounder for sure. Possibly Best, Hardesty, Tate, Gerhart, And McCluster.. Edit: I'd be happy with any of these I think, maybe some in a later round if BPA of need is a better choice in the 4th.

My non-expert take on things is that Best might go in the high-second round. Perhaps we can find another second round pick in a trade, enabling us to take Best. I would be all about Hardesty or Gerhart in the fourth if they fell that far. I've tried to train realistic 4th round hopes on Tate.

Gotcha Lotus, so assuming Spiller is the #1 Rb off the board, where do you see Best as far as RB talent in the draft. Just wondering one non-expert to another. I mean 3rd, 4th "best" etc.

I think Jahvid is 2nd "best" running back behind Spiller, my friend. I think injury concerns drop him a round from Spiller. However, I actually like Best better than Spiller as a pass-catcher.

Who do you like in the top two rounds, if not a running back?

I do like his "shiftiness", and football speed. I can definitely see him as a "one cut and go death blow" in Shanny's offense!

^ True dat!

Personally, I would like to see Okung, or Bradford at the 4 pick. If we get Okung,
I wouldn't mind getting Best at #36. But, there are so many veriables involved. I mean, say Okung and Bradford are gone, Then I'd say Suh first, if he's gone, then McCoy (DT) or best OT available. In that instance, if we don't get OT with our 1st pick, don't we kind of have to take best OL available at 36?

You have described my thinking. I am also intrigued by an Okung-Pouncey combo in which we walk away from the draft with the best tackle and the best center. booyah

Me likey a lot. Foundation for years to come on OL. Maybe pickup one of those RBs we discussed or a LB according to BPA/need. Nice..

Best, from all I've heard is considered one of the smartest, classiest players in the draft. There are no character concerns at all with him. I think he's probably going to be a late first round pick, but if he falls to the 2nd I could see the Redskins taking him. But I'm not expecting it.

Imagine, Kevin Barnes and Jahvid Best on the same team

Been told we may have some interest in Joe McKnight as well
