Aaron Donald is who this board wants?

[Lonestar94]

Just looking for the consensus of who this board wants to draft. Aaron Donald seems to fall to us in most of the mock drafts.

 

[Neverhood]

Calvin Pryor, badly want

 

[Corso]

I have no "One Name" in mind.
The draft is so unpredictable when it happens.
Let me just say I want the best talent that fits our team when the opportunity presents itself.

 

[Zordon]

Manziel
Pryor
Donald

That order...

I think Donald is a good fit.. However I think there is a chance that a better player could be there at 16.. I would be happy with Donald though because he fits perfectly into the scheme and would be an impact player day 1.. One negative about Donald is that he is extremely scheme specific so if we were to switch to a 3-4 ever again or a different variation of the 4-3 it could render him useless.

Players that could possibly still be there at 16 that are BETTER PLAYERS than Donald.

Mike Evans (WR, Texas A&M)
Khalil Mack (OLB, Buffalo)
Anthony Barr (OLB, UCLA)
Ha'Sean Clinton Dix (FS, Alabama)
Taylor Lewan (OT, Michigan)
Marqise Lee (WR, USC)

So all in all I think there is a chance to get a better player than Donald at 16 but I wouldn't be mad at the pick at all.. As long as they don't reach and take a guy like Kony Ealy or Dee Ford at 16 I will be ok.

Whoa... who's the new avi, my man?

A lot depends on FA. Much can happen to our roster between now and May. Right now he would be my pick but I would still explore a small trade down.

Is Mack a 4-3 OLB? I highly doubt he falls to 16, but a linebacker combo of Lee Carter and Mack would be deadly.

Nicole Beharie from the tv show Sleepy Hollow.

donald or pryor would be awesome.

donald is cat quick like sapp

pryor is a dying breed of safety who likes to light people up with clean ,hard hits.

reminds me of roy back when roy was roy.

pryor and church could be very fun to watch..

/End thread. Triple like.

we need to go dl, safety, dl regardless in the first three picks..

That's her?
I love that show! I have it DL'd, but have only gone through 4 episodes so far.
I watch TV on a very... slow... timescale.
I'm only halfway through Season Two of Game of Thrones and halfway through of Season Three of Fringe and barely beginning Breaking Bad and Homeland.
And all that's been more than a year (sometimes more than two) to get to those points.

i want wolverine.

I simply don't believe in drafting for need.
Draft for talent.
If need fits talent- so much the better, but the draft is something that should be held above need- for the most part.

i want wolverine.

I'd rather Magneto then- if we're going in that direction...

 

[theSHOW]

Manziel
Pryor
Donald

That order...

Donald rd 1
Prior rd 2
Manziel rd 3

not much metal out there, to be honest. maybe kittie pride and she can just phase through to the endzone untouched.

Mack is certainly more of a 3-4 OLB but I think in our scheme he would be amazing as a SAM LB and then when you go into Nickel on 3rd downs and all other passing situations you would put him at DE to rush.

we are running 4- 3 bro now.

i think my assesment fits perfectly .

spencer and ware are finished

assanine to think either are going to be 4-3 defensive ends.
