Slim pickings @ #14

[TheSport78]

If you could choose from THREE PLAYERS who you truly believe will be available at #14, let's hear them, with #1 being your top choice and #3 being your last choice.

1. OG David DeCastro
2. CB Dre Kirkpatrick (I know, I know)
3. DE/LB Melvin Ingram

[RS12]

Kirkpatrick probably still goes top 15.
1) DeCastro
2) Jonathan Martin
3) Michael Brockers

[Gaede]

1.Ingram
2.DeCastro
3.Kirkpatrick

[MichaelWinicki]

1. Decastro
2. Kirkpatrick

Trade down.

3. Still

Where exactly would Jonathan Martin play?

But I agree that its DeCastro, Imgram, or Dre. If all 3 are gone Im trading back and hoping a team covets a player available.

I don't see slim picking at 14, right now none of us really know how the draft will play out and who will slide in the 1st rd and who will rise in the 1st rd. I'm sure many boards around the league will start to change over the course of the next 2 months as the combines and individual work outs start taking place.

1. Melvin Ingram
2. Nick Perry
3. DeCastro

We have to improve the defense, first and foremost.

#1 Kirkpatrick
#2 Ingram
#3 DeCastro

DeCastro might be the more for sure and safer pick but I value a OLB in a 3-4 or a great CB more than I do a OG.
I love DeCastro but OG is not worth the 14th pick. I can find a starting OG round 2 or 3. Chances of doing that with a CB or OLB is very very slim.

Right tackle with Free moving inside.

Now that would be a huge reach. Drafting a RT at #14 with no possibility of moving to LT. We all knew that Smith would move to LT.

No way I draft a RT only in the 1st round. Free will be fine at RT.

We need defense.

It has nothing to do with Free not being ok at RT. It has to do with putting a talented OL in front of Romo. If Martin is there at #14 he is probably at the top of the board and we aren't just drafting a RT. We are drafting a very talented player who starts from day one and instantly makes two positions on the OL better.

I agree that we need defense, but in my opinion, any pass rusher or corner likely to be there at #14 would be a much greater reach than Martin.

I could not agree more. Marrtin has the ability to play more than one position and would not be a reach.

I have to roll my eyes at some here.

After all the years of whining about not picking the BPA - so many are unwilling to pick the absolute best player at one position. And that will be Decastro.

And it is a position of serious need as well.


No one else that will be available at #14 will be considered the absolute BEST in the league at that position while at the same time being considered one of the BEST at that position that has come around in YEARS.

Luck is that way; no one here would blink at taking him if we had the chance.

But because DeCastro is a guard some turn their noses up at him?

JUST PLAIN STUPID
