Trolling: ****Official Draft Day Thread****

[Fletch]

Great athlete, I mean, top 10 athlete. Great character. Tape shows well in his limited time. Can't believe we got this guy at 27!!

A need for sure. But most likely he was BPA on our board. I thought for sure he would go way before we got to him. Solid pick. Good kid. RKG!

 

[BourbonBalz]

We needed a starting quality corner and we got one. We got one that is a tremendous athlete and smart. Like others, I would have preferred DL, but I am happy with the pick.

 

[Plankton]

Michael Bennett and a RB from the Johnson's or Yeldon would be a good day tomorrow.

 

[Deep_South]

He's definitely RKG - Helps out a Congressman from Connecticut in his spare time as an intern. Plus, he beat the world record in some kind of jump

 

[Doomsday101]

I hope we get some DL help as well but Dallas went out and got Hardy I think most understand any suspension will not be 10 games and we have a young man in Demarcus Lawrence so the notion we don't have any pass rushers? If that is the case why did Dallas go and get Hardy? I thought that is what he brought. Meantime Dallas got a very good CB in a secondary that has Scandrick, Claiborne and Carr. I think Cowboys did a good job

 

[Vinnie2u]

One more CB and Carr is gone..

 

[manster4ever]

awful. just because a corner can jump far. there's no such thing as a shutdown corner these days and the ones that do use great arm strength. This guy has a hurt shoulder. Why not Malcom Brown?!

Kind of agree.....I'm not too familiar with this kid but UCONN isn't much of a program and they play NO one. Just not too thrilled about it.

 

[Sharky]

Wow we drafted someone who can jump high and far. Too bad he cant tackle or cover. His highlight video is a joke!

 

[ScipioCowboy]

Yes! Byron Jones!

Who is Byron Jones?

 

[MagicMan]

I was a big Malcom Brown supporter, but I think this Jones guy may be the closest to a shut down corner we've had.....can't hurt. Think the Boys are going to try to move up in the 2nd round for another blue chipper. Brown will probably be gone though. And I still would not close the book on AP. I smell something cooking.

 

[Vintage]

You guys and Gregory.....unreal. Kid is a clown.

Back to reality: I would be pretty neutral if it's Jones. I've seen and heard alot about him at UCONN but in the end....don't know a ton about him. We were rumored to like him but I just didn't think we'd pull the trigger on another CB. I guess it shouldn't be a shock though.....Claiborne has been a bust.

A clown who can rush the passer, legitimately.

We have one on the roster that can do that. I wanted to double that number.

 

[Chuck 54]

Why would they take a corner over a good defensive tackle?

Terrible decision.

Are you serious? Unless it's Suh or a pass rusher like Donald, does any team value DT over CB?

 

[Blackspider214]

I remember Moore getting picked on quite a bit...and Lawrence going into his 2nd year...and something about some guy named Hardy.

Would Rodgers be able to go through all his progressions and get to his WR paired up with Moore if we actually had a dline? No.

This dude got lit up by Boise St. Just had surgery. He's a combine star. Mo Claiborne 2.0 come on down.

Hardy? He's the biggest wild card we could have. Are you seriously counting on him?

 

[Doomsday101]

Gregory is a year suspension waiting to happen

To me Gregory is an OLB not a DE not at 240 in a 4-3 defense.

 

[Apollo Creed]

Solid pick. Measurables look like typos there so good.

Good guy, athletic and flexible - can play 3 positions.

I bet Dallas had him as a low 20s possibly high teens pick on their board. Hence why they were all smiles and fist bumps in the war room.

 

[Jimz31]

Who cares who your corners are when your dline is trash. Did you watch the Packers game last year? Because it will be the same thing as last year for the 2015 season.

Horrible pick.

Good CB's can make your d-line better than they really are...think about it...if nobody is open, the qb holds the ball longer allowing your d-line to get closer.

 

[CowboyMike]

Carr and Claiborne be like

Horrible pick.

Apparently you missed the Greg Hardy news.

Relax, trust in Marinelli.

Lots of the BEST D linemen were later round picks.

And his 40 is 4.43. Wow.

Colts add Phillip Dorsett - a clone of T.Y. Hilton.
