Draft Weekend Chatter Thread...

[data]

Jason: Our scouts do such a good job and understanding where they came from and circumstances. We had a lot of good information and those things are in the past and he can be good for our football team. We hear the players' situation of what happened and take into consideration of how we can help him. Saw it as a maturity issue that's behind him.

Jerruh: W/o getting specific to Demarcus Ware, this was a need pick. The need to have in this draft a player that could put some pressure on the outside or a complement to what we have in the inside. We hope this player, and this player was the only one left on the board that could draw two blockers. There are lots of DL left and ones that can play the nose tackle, but they're not at the high level and also of a pressure right end. Now, how much did you pay for it? We very thoroughly what we might have if we stayed in place and wouldn't have had. We wouldn't have had a RE pass rusher. We think possibly Melton and Crawford that could be our 3T that Marinelli needs. We get our 2nd and 3rd down pressure player with Lawrence and that's a premium to get in this draft.

Panicked for need.

Embarrassing.

But at least we are consistent.

 

[cmd34]

pick 47 and there are still plenty of D Linemen to pick from.

 

[boozeman]

Fuck you, Garrett. We didn't do a "good job" in free agency by getting McClain and Mincey. Just fuck off you idiot.

 

[NoDak]

PICK 47 IS UP!! OMGOMGOMG!!!


Wait..

 

[data]

Nice pick for the Steelers.

 

[Smitty]

Meanwhile Pittsburgh sits tight and lands steal in Stephon Tuitt.

Same shit different year.

 

[boozeman]

pick 47 and there are still plenty of D Linemen to pick from.

But none of them can rush the passer, apparently.

 

[VA Cowboy]

Ealy, Crichton, Jernigan and Murphy would've been there at 47.

 

[GForce78NJ]

tuitt will be good in the steelers scheme

 

[Smitty]

We could have had Ealy, Crichton, Nix, Jernigan or Attachou here.

 

[Simpleton]

From what Garrett is saying it sounds like he won't "start", or perhaps play in base type of situations because he isn't great against the run, but we will use him on 2nd/3rd in all passing situations.

Basically how I imagined us using Barr if we took him.

 

[data]

Redskins love white players on their front 7

 

[Smitty]

At least the Skins took one of my least feared DLs here.

 

[boozeman]

Redskins take Murphy.

I wonder if they think he can rush the passer very well.

 

[Simpleton]

That's a big reach relative to the other players available.

I would've definitely liked Jernigan, Crichton or Ealy here if we still had our 3rd.

 

[boozeman]

We could have had Ealy, Crichton, Nix, Jernigan or Attachou here.

And all of those guys will go before we pick again.

Horrid.

 

[E_D_Guapo]

Crawford feels good about the player! Outstanding!

 

[boozeman]

God damn.

They are really trying to sell this shit with Crawford.
