Mel just on ESPN

[dmq]

Talked about the Cowboys

Thought COwboys might be looking to
Shawn Merriman OLB w/ the 11th pick.
Possibly Troy Williamson WR w/ the 20th pick.

Any thoughts?

Williamson MAY be around in the 2nd...

He is a VERY underrated player... so he could slip through the cracks...

 

[noshame]

Jeez, I hope we don't use a #11 pick on a LB.

 

[CaptainAmerica]

Saw Williamson play this year. He's a real burner who could develop into a dominant receiver with good coaching.

He won't fall once he runs the 40 at the combine. I'm not sure he will last to 20. He's a real burner.

Sadly...its been awhile since a WR has been developed under the current staff

 

[trickblue]

Merriman will end up at DE eventually...

We will have interest in him... especially if we move to the 3-4...

This kid is still pretty young so he is going to get bigger...

 

[followthestar]

i don't care where it comes from, i don't care how we get it, i don't care what it costs - if we can't find a way to pressure opposing QBs, all the secondary help in the world wont make a difference.
a dominant NT type or speed rusher from the DE spot is what we need on defense - whichever we can't acquire thru FA. as for offense i have no problems with a WR if he can run routes and has good hands. speed should be the last concern - look at randall williams - he of the 4.04 forty...

While we need the best impact players...

We could draft "LT" in his prime and he would be a bust if zimmy WUSS is retained...

The #1 offseason priority is still getting a real qualified DC!

Unfortunately it doesn't look like it will happen

Mel Compared Merriman to Willie McGinest. I agree that we almost have to address the defensive line in the first round. Isn't the receiver class this year supposed to be deep?

Mel also compared Arrington to LT. LOL

 

[Woods]

How would you guys/gals compare Merriman to Tuck, the DE from ND? I'm assuming Tuck is 100% healthy.

HH, you should smile, you will have something to talk about all year cause Zimmy is not leaving...

I heard Mel this morning also on ESPN.......

Merriman is a Junior coming out Correct?

Is Williamson that good?..never saw him play thay I remember

 

[BigDInCharlotte]

Yes, Merriman is a junior.

 

[boysfanindc]

Merriman is a very good player, he is not #11 good though.

I have gone to every Terps game for the last 5 years. Merriman does dominate at times, but when Hendersen was at MD he dominated every game.

I would not mind Merriman at #20 or a little later but not at #11, especially if DJ is on the board.

 

[ghettogandhi]

we need lb's - we have the worst non playmaking linebackers in the league- they arent fast anymore- they arent big and they arent playmakers- if I was the gm of this team I would try to get derrick johnson and shawn merriman in the first round- if not I would look at justin tuck from nd or channing crowder after trading down.

Jeez, I hope we don't use a #11 pick on a LB.

 

[ghettogandhi]

merriman is more of 3-4 lb than tuck- tuck is more of an end.

How would you guys/gals compare Merriman to Tuck, the DE from ND? I'm assuming Tuck is 100% healthy.

 

[TDHND]

Where is Williamson from?
