The Pet Cat Thread

[casmith07]

Go ahead. Post 'em up in the most awesome picture you can find. Here's mine...

Jayron Hosley, CB, Virginia Tech - ball hawk, good tackler/hard hitter, plays the ball, returns punts and kicks!

Here's a picture of him climbing the ladder for a pick in the end zone against Boston College's 6'6" Tight End Pantale.

Oh, and Hosley's only 5'10" on a warm day.

Sammy Brown OLB/Houston

The kid is a disruptive pass rusher who had 56 tackles, 30 tackles for loss, and 13.5 sacks in 2011, and most of that on a bad ankle. I could see him playing outside or inside in a 3-4.

Hebron Fangupo, NT, BYU

Just the type of NT we need, and he can be hate in the mid rounds. 6'1" 330, and I think he will work out very well. Dude has a great attitude and loves to play the game, also very loyal to his family. Plus he's got experience in BYU's 3-4 defense, even though he may be miscast as a DE there.

 

[InmanRoshi]

I'm still a big Bruce Irvin fan. Outside of Ware, we have a really, really slow front 7.

 

[RS12]

Josh Chapman Alabama NT played 3/4 of the season on one leg and played well. What else is there to say.

 

[VACowboy]

Still Matt Daniels, but I love McClellin too.

Put Cam Johnson down as my homer pick.

 

[robert70x7]

Jake Bequette with Jerry Jones. Sign of things to come?

I guess my pet cat is Kirk Cousins. I never really watched MSU until I caught a couple minutes of a game back in 2009 and was really intrigued and have followed his career ever since. He's a leader on and off the field, has a strong arm, good accuracy, runs a pro-style offense etc. but the most intruiging thing to me was his quick cockn'fire. Typically when you see someone cockn'fire that fast, they had the ball half-cocked (way too high above their chest practically to their ear), but Cousins holds it close to the body and chest level and still gets it out lightning fast. I talked to a MSU alum on this forum about him back, can't remember who tho.

Edit: It was newlander, he'd probably have more info to add.

 

[tm1119]

Really not all that bold, but I love Vinny Curry. I think he has everything you would look for in a pass rushing OLB, and could dominate in a few years.

 

[newlander]

He's been a revelation for that program. His integrity, intelligence and leadership skills are off the hook. He has a strong arm, loves to compete and his teammates love him. HOWEVER, he is limited athletically, some times misreads and throws into coverage too much and tends to throw off his back foot when pressured. (Urban Meyer did the MSU/U of M game this year and said his mechanics were excellent however: best he'd seen all year....)


In closing, I think he's at highest a middle second rounder, at lowest a low 3rd rounder: Seattle and Miami are interested supposedly. Here is his speech to before the BIG TEN season at their annual luncheon: kid is a leader....

It is Hosley for me as well. I'm a VT fan so I've watched almost all of his games. Truly remarkable talent.

 

[TheCoolFan]

Janzen Jackson...the only safety I would take in this draft. Former Tennessee safety that transferred this year. He would've been a real standout this year had he stayed.

Brandon Boykins CB/KR/PR, UGA

I live in GA, and I'm a big UGA fan. We havnt drafted many SEC players lately, and I wish we would start adding some talent from there. Boykin fills a bunch of holes as he is a playmaker with the ball in his hand, and has serious return skills. He could be a 3rd CB if needed, but I'd rather him be the 4th CB for a few years and then move into the Nickel role. It'd be nice to have a CB who can get his hands on the ball and then take it to the house. Plus he is a 2nd, but most likely going in the 3rd.

 

[TheFinisher]

Whitney Mercilus

I think he's going to rise significantly throughout the process much like Aldon Smith did last year. He's the 34 OLB of the class IMO, I just hope he doesn't put himself out of position for us come April.

Smith in my opinion didn't really rise last year. ESPN had him as the 14th ranked prospect and was drafted 7th. Mercilus isn't even in the Top 50 right now.

 

[jnday]

I guess mine will be Bobby Massie the OT from Ole Miss . He would be a great pick in the fourth round . At 6'6'' , 330 lbs , he could be a great swing tackle and could also move inside to guard .

 

[KingintheNorth]

so..many..pet cats....

but Janzen Jackson and Brandon Boykin are probably my top 2...

I agree with that statement. Jake Bequette, Arkansas DE is one of my favorite players available. It seems the best defensive lineman/players come from the southern part of the country. I hope Dallas scours the south with relentless vigor.

 

[robert70x7]

If ya'll are considering Boykin a top 8 cornerback prospect, be my guest and go find a draft where less than 8 cornerbacks were taken before the 3rd round. It typically doesn't happen and I think he'll be long gone before our 3rd round pick.

Claiborne,kirkpatrick,Jenkins,minnifield,dennard,hosley are all projected to go before him. Unless he runs a crazy 40 he will be the 7th or 8th cb taken. I think we would have a chance of him dropping. Although i wouldnt mind taking him in the 2nd.
