are there any lovable losers in the NFL?
-
Poz and Mitchell are way too slow for 3-4.
what? the bigger concern is that Poz is a little small for an ILB in a 34.
as for speed - Poz was fast enough to be a MLB in a Tampa-2, where they have to cover a ton of field. You don't need burners at ILB in a 34.

Stroud states in an inteview with Chris Brown that he'd love to play end in a 3-4. He expects to be 300 lbs. when he reports to camp. He would be a monster prsenece from the end, IMO.

I think he can play end too. His size is ideal for the monster type end that they use in some 34s. But I guess until we have somebody else on the roster that can play nose, he's probably the guy there - with K. Williams and S. Johnson at the 5's
-
Interesting.
Looking more like we go front seven with our pick or trade down.
Is there a nose tackle worth taking that high? Doesn't seem like it. McClain at LB?
Dan Williams the NT keeps rising on everyone's boards. He could be a serious darkhorse at 9.
-
Okung has been listed at 6'5 almost everywhere I've seen. Don't know where 6'8 came from.
that's a good point. It'll be interesting to see how he measures up at the combine. I've seen 6'6, 6'8, and now 6'5 for him so who the heck knows.
-
with Bulaga's and Anthony Davis' rising.
they're thinking Trent Williams could fall out of the first round, and Okung might fall to the middle of the 1st, or worse.

Okung's problems - not very strong, foot speed not elite (both problems probably stem from him being a little too tall at 6'8)
Trent Williams - his problems are more well known. almost definitely a RT only.
-
we need as many quarterbacks in the mix as possible.
-
well that's a serious fact check fail.
-
Balt plays a 4-3
they play a hybrid like we're going to next season
-
hmm. per chris brown it looks like they think Stroud might be capable of playing NT.
-
our outside linebacker corps is about to hit the bricks. Ellison will be a Giant. Nic Harris? I don't know.
we need a NT. Stroud, Williams, and Spencer Johnson are capable of playing end in a 34. Schobel can probably be a flex man the way Jason Taylor was in the later stages of his career.
Maybin and Chris Ellis can be pass rushing OLB's.
Kelsay, who knows. If he bulks up in the offseason to 280 or so he might able to play end.

woah some interesting stuff in there!
Buffalo’s new defensive boss will be making changes to the Bills defensive scheme, which has exclusively employed a 4-3 front the past nine seasons.
“Defensively, we will start from a 3-4 alignment,” said Edwards. “But we will do what we feel is best for our players. We are not going to give anything away about exactly what we will do, but personnel will dictate what you can and what you can’t do. As far as the initial alignment, the 3-4 is what we will start off with and we will adjust from there.”
-
just got the text. its official.
-
did he join Florida before or after Urban Myer said he was taking a leave of absence?
-
Hargrove was probably my favorite player on the Bills while he was here. Too bad he screwed that up. I like Jabari as well. I don't even really dislike Greggo anymore. He was a class act in DC and got screwed over.
-
James Farrior was one of the best FA signings of the past decade.
I had forgotten that he wasn't always a Steeler
-
Which ones did they resign to any sizeable contracts? Beside Ben and Bettis? They might resign some backups to minimum contracts, but the stars almost all walk. Porter, Burress, Randel El, etc.
letting those 3 walk were all good decisions in my book. Randel El got a huge contract that he hasn't come close to living up to. Burress is incarcerated. And Porter only had a season or two left in the tank.
-
From his interviews it sounds like he did more than just scout other teams players. He was in charge of advance scouting for their upcoming opponents as well as college scouting.
that's good to hear. I was hoping his big accomplishments were not the Mewelde Moore and Kemautou signings.
-
Tell that to the group of LTs that have made the probowl in their rookie or second year or the last 3 or 4. DUDE! Check ESPN. LTs are coming out of college and not just being good...but PROBOWL good.
its a tough call. I think Bulaga is going to be sick at the next level. But its a QB league and good ones are hard to get your hands on. If you have the chance to get what you think could be a great one, you really have to take it. Not sure whether we think Bradford could be great or not, but if we do.... A team rarely has that opportunity.
-
if his shoulder checks out and he's the top QB in the draft, it'll be tough not to take him. The opportunity to even get the top QB in a given year is very rare. Might need to trade around to get that LT though.
-
I'm having a tough time thinking of any notable pro scouting decisions that the Steelers have made in the last decade. It seems they are almost wholly built through the draft - which is, of course, the proper way to do things.
Does anybody that follows the Steelers closely have any insight into the kind of free agents that the Steelers have pursued in recent history?
I suppose that knowing which players to re-sign is a pretty good skill in itself. It's something we've clearly lacked.
-
you need to play the way the Jets do if you have a bad QB and still want a shot at the playoffs.
-
i'd say its a combo of small market, bad weather, and ancient owner. We've also kind of been pathetic this decade and burned more than a few bridges during the Donahoe era.
-
Schobel is probably the Bill of the decade. And by a wide margin. He's a terrific player.
Good McShay article on the Draft

gotta call bs on McKelvin and even Lynch. Neither were considered reaches at the time.
