Dontari Poe

[tm1119]

If we fix the O-Line with FA.

I would like to trade down and do something like this.

1.)Dontari Poe
2.)Jared Crick
2.)OG, C, or CB
3.)Bruce Irvin

Im all for the trade down, but why still draft Crick in the 2nd? If we get a NT we would then have Rat, Spears, Hatcher, and Lissemore at DE. Really no room for a rookie that high. Make it....

1)Poe
2)Minnifield/Boykin
2)Irvin
3)Silatolu

It's a good first thought but lets see how it all settles.

I figured this guy would shoot up the boards as the draft process develops. By the time everything is over, he will definitely be in play at 14. Not saying we will take him, but his selection in the early teens would not be considered a reach.

 

[fanfromvirginia]

were did the ravens draft ngata (sp)?

10th, if memory serves.

I'm not sure trading down would work anymore with Poe, not after watching him this morning. That was truly impressive.

agreed people are calling for him in the top 12 now possibly to the chiefs at 11.

Another player rises above 14! I think there are now officially 17 players that will be drafted before the 14th pick. :laugh2:

Sorry, didn't realize you already had the top 14 players set in stone. Good for you.

 

[fanfromvirginia]

He was a mid first to mid 2nd, probably still in that range.

There is no way Poe drops to the 2nd round. No way.

 

[CCBoy]

If I were Dallas, I would be sitting at 14 and await one of the following three:

David DeCastro
Dontari Poe
Luke Kuechly


...and would walk away with one of those three.

To be fair, there could in there be any number of people with top half of the first round grades. And the fact that 19 different posters argue that 18 separate individuals will all be gone by 14 isn't the same thing as one poster arguing that 19 guys will be gone by 14. In other words, what drives me crazy is when someone argues that out of, say, 5 guys, none of them will be there at 14 (or whatever number the pick is). It's perfectly consistent for any one individual to argue that any one player will be gone by 14.

And, in the case of Poe, it's now much more plausible than it was three hours ago. He definitely had the entire Rich Eisen crew gawking and speculating. Poe is going to be one of those guys who gets a big boost from the combine, deservedly or not.

1) Poe
2) Osemele/Silatolu (i dont think they drop into the 3rd)
2) Hosley/Boykin
3) Irvin

I think for me,

DeCastro would still be my top choice.
Poe
Glenn

Hightower with a trade down.

lol, do I? I'm the one saying there's every bit a chance Perry will last past 14, you're the one arguing he's going Top 10, but I'm the one that has players set in stone.

There is no way Poe drops to the 2nd round. No way.

I don't think he will either.

 

[fanfromvirginia]

I think for me,

DeCastro would still be my top choice.
Poe
Glenn

Hightower with a trade down.

That's my top three as well, in order. And Hightower with a trade down works but at least one of those guys will be there at 14. You figure there are at least seven guys who are absolute locks to go before 14 -- Luck, RGIII, Kalil, Clairborne, Blackmon, Reiff and Coples and then a bunch of other guys who could or even should go higher than 14 -- Ingram, Richardson, Upshaw, Brockers, Martin, maybe another QB, who knows. By the time some other late risers hop in there, even with a few of those guys dropping out there just are not enough spaces for all of those guys to be gone.

14th is starting to look like a very safe place to get a top notch player.

 

[Lodeus]

Poe looked real impressive. If we get DeCastro or Poe Ill be real happy.

me 2, although i'm still holding out hope for Soliai in free agency , but even if we got him i wouldnt mind Poe because our DL needs the help and will give us a real nice rotation in the trenches.

My top three plus Cordy Glenn.

My top 10 as of right now would be

QBs
Luck, RGIII, and Tannehill

RB
Richardson

CBs
Claiborne

WR
Blackmon

DL
Coples
Brockers

OTs
Kalil
R Reiff

I think Ingram at LB, J Martin at OT from Stanford could also make a push.

But we should have a real shot of DeCastro, and if he's gone, either Poe or Glenn.

 

[cowboy_ron]

He also did 44 reps of 225 lbs

Just reading that made me tired

 

[Avery]

Poe is an athlete. I wouldn't blink about taking him at #14 (especially if we got Nicks).
