if we want a BIG BOY run stuffer late, watch out for this potential 6th or 7th rounder Quinton Bohanna from Kentucky. He's an oldschool country strong fatty in the middle that is an immovable force lol...GREAT space eater and run stopper. He eats up bodies and that is what we need alongside Gallimore. Gallimore is more of a speed dependant penetrating guy and THIS guy simply will hold down the middle. Dallas was at his Pro day.

IMO - Wilson in Dallas will become a JAG

Wilson in Baltimore, Pittsburgh will become a 10 year starter with multiple pro bowls
yup because THEY wont tolerate loafing like we have in the past. He will either fall in line or be gone. That said, Quinn is a no nonsense dude too. I just dont like the marriage of high risk involved here. We gotta hit with all our early picks. I almost forgot the Ohio state kid Tommy Togia. We LOVE him and had our scouts at his pro day. Rumor has it he might be a trade up target for us in the back end of round 1. SOME view TT as DT number 1 in this draft. He's a nasty big boy in the middle who never stops. Plays thru the whistle.I said scouts..actually Dan Quinn and MM were both there at TT pro day.

thanks, I just glanced at it. Its a good read. Seems he was hurt some too. But does have a mean streak. I like that. Which version of him would we get? I'm leaning towards Tommy T from Ohio state or Barmore, then double dip on day 3 and draft Slaton from Florida. You can never have enough big boys in the middle. That hurt us last few years. We lacked quality and depth on the interior.

Tommy Togiai is a DT we are supposed to like.
agree. We had MM and DQ there watching too. He's a Dan Quinn player if I ever saw one. I doubt he will be there at 44. We may need to take one of our 3rd round comp picks and move up into the backend of round 1 if we want him.

IF,, that's a big if, Phillips checks out 100% medically, he could be in play at 10. Best pass rusher in this class and it's not even close. Compares very well to some very good NFL DE's. Hard to pass on that kind of pure pass rusher.

But I think these guys mentioned, like him and Collins, are targets if we trade down, or back up.
It's more than medical. Bucky Brooks was on the draft show yesterday saying if you were to take him at 10 you would have to do a THOROUGH check of the medicals and attitude.

Apparently, there a questions about whether or not he really wants to play football. Brooks said he was great with his hands, and a great athlete.

I'm just telling you what I heard. If the medicals and the attitude check out, then yes.....he's a consideration at 10.

True. I know he's not the 330 pounder most on here want, but he's really strong. I would love to see him at 44. Probably won't make it there.

NO WAY would he be my pick. Even at 44 I would have to pass. We have better options there and needs. This is not the draft to be taking chances on edge.

People need to realize those 330 pounders have to come off the field and are part timers. They get winded easily. This dude is an every down cat. The value is just too good to pass on. He has stats that are great when you consider he was always doubled and STILL had solid production. Thats next level stuff IMO.

Yes I heard him too. But everything I have heard says that all of that, including possibly some of the "concussion" stuff was due to not wanting to be at UCLA in the first place. His parents made him go there. Once he got to Miami he was 100% healthy and 100% let lose on playing football. That's why his medical is so important. If he clears it, as expected, he will fly up the boards.

ITS one helluva risk to draft him on day 1 or 2. Will he be committed to football?

Only he knows 100% for sure, but I I have no doubts. Everything about his attitude changed after going to Miami.

Jeff left out Slaton. This kid is a riser. He is better than Twyman and Jay T.
