Bill from NYC Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I can't believe OJ Howard's stats were so bad. He looks like he could be the next great TE.CB, think for a moment of the stars that Howard had to share reps with: Henry Ridley Drake Yeldon Lacey Cooper The list goes on. They had too many stars to make Howard the feature offensive player. And as we know, Saban likes to run. He dropped a few passes during the season as well. He is a hard player to predict even for me, whereas I have seen all of his games. He might be a terrific TE. My guess is that it will take a little time. Jmo.

26CornerBlitz Posted January 18, 2016 Author Share Posted January 18, 2016 Near-disastrous number of early entries declaring for 2016 NFL Draft After a year reprieve, NFL Draft declarations by underclassmen are up once again. It's disastrous for the players and not helping college football either. 2016 NFL Mock Draft: Would 49ers ditch Kaepernick for Paxton Lynch? The potential marriage of Chip Kelly and Colin Kaepernick in San Francisco could resurrect the careers for both sides. But if San Francisco moves on from the talented, but streaky quarterback, Memphis' Paxton Lynch would be a logical option in the top-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solomon Grundy Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I don't get why fans want to jettison Mario Williams just to draft another DE. Kyle Williams has been a GREAT player and Bill, but with his injury history he should be who they'd want to replace and save some money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Williams has been a GREAT player and Bill, but with his injury history he should be who they'd want to replace and save some money. I don't think people want to. I think they've just made peace with the reality that Mario doesn't want to play in this system and they're paying him too much for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Williams has been a GREAT player and Bill, but with his injury history he should be who they'd want to replace and save some money.because drafting a DE to replace him will be cheaper, younger, and more productive in this scheme. Mario is aging, expensive, and not producing not to mention his poor attitude and lack of leadership. There are reasons to replace him with a drafted player. It isn't like they are jettisoning a guy like Glenn just to draft a LT (at least I hope not). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mario situation is clearly broken, unless he has a magical change of attitude, or Rex runs a different scheme. No matter what happened in the past, this is where we are now and they have to deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aristocrat Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 With our cap situation I hate to eat 7 mil in cap space next year if there is a chance he can have a bounce back year. If we offer an extension to get that cap hit way down then maybe we can concentrate on other positions in the draft and really take a run at next year and let him go then we our cap becomes a little more manageable.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Cardale in this offense... Omg.... He's not the fastest guy but he is enormous and hard to bring down as a runner. Throwing 80 yard bombs to Sammy... when Devin Smith was drafted by the Jets the joke was he's the only WR in the draft who will have a worse QB in the pros than he had in college. Taylor is hard to bring down and throws bombs to Sammy. I believe we have more pressing needs in the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloHokie13 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Taylor is hard to bring down and throws bombs to Sammy. I believe we have more pressing needs in the first round. Cardale will be around in the 2nd-early 3rd range probably. Also, that post was from last May, so Yolo may feel better about our QB situation now than he did then.

YoloinOhio Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Taylor is hard to bring down and throws bombs to Sammy. I believe we have more pressing needs in the first round.that post you responded to was from over 10 months ago. It was two months prior to camp. We hadn't seen Taylor's season and we hadn't seen Cardale's season. While I would still advocate taking a QB in the first round if he was BPA on their board, it wouldn't be Cardale. That said, I would take him as a value pick later. Edited January 18, 2016 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it takes two sides to want an extension, and I'm not sure either side would be interested at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
