SCENARIO A:

1. WR Dwayne Jarrett------------Arguably the best WR opposite Evans would keep Defenses wide, make room for Willis

2. MLB Anthony Waters----------SEC leading tackler tore ACL and will fall to 2nd Round. 6-2, 240 4.55

3. DT Jay Alford (Penn State)

 

SCENARIO B:

1. DT Amobi Okoye (Louisville)--------A Run stopping DT. You may argue that we drafted him last year.

2. WR Robert Meachem (Tennessee)--Nice WR to pick up at pick #44.

3. DE Tim Crowder (Texas)

 

SCENARIO C:

1. MLB Trade down a bit and get Ole Miss' Patrick Willis. Instincts, quickness, power and toughness. Perfect Tampa 2 MLB.

2. OT Justin Blalock (Texas) – We won’t be getting a MikeWilliams again.

3. Trade Down, take:

4. OG Ben Grubbs (Auburn) and ST C.J. Gaddis (Clemson)- Versatile player who came to Clemson as a quarterback, then moved to defense, where he served as a starting safety in five games last year; now starting cornerback...considered by many to be the top all-around athlete on the team, just needs experience to become a top-echelon player on defense...has seen time as a kick returner in his career; he had two kickoff returns for 27 yards in 2005, both against Maryland...had a blocked punt in each of the last two years, including one against Florida State in 2004 and one against Temple in 2005...has played in 23 games over the last two years, including five as a starter...has not missed a game in his first two years..

I'm fine with Okoye or Scenario C.

 

Scenario A is the worst thing it could happen. If there's one thing we don't need, is to invest a high pick on a WR. If the QB doesn't have time to throw and we can't run, you can have two stud WRs and it won't matter. See Arizona, for example.

 

If you think we need one, grab one in FA or with a second day pick. We need OL/DL/MLB with our first three picks, any order. You build a team from inside out, not with fancy picks.

I'd go with scenario C any day of the week!!

Did you watch this team the 2nd half of the year? Pass protection doesn't get a whole lot better in the NFL than we had it from the bye week through week 16. As for run blocking, I agree that its weak, however I don't see us taking a tackle in the first round. Obviously we're set with Peters, and I wouldn't understand wanting to draft somebody 12th overall to replace Pennington when he was so solid in pass protection as a 7th round rookie, and with the size he has. Let McNally work with him. I think they'll be bringing Gandy back as well as we did have some success running left. I want Preston replaced this offseason but not with a Guard picked 12th overall. I highly doubt we'd take a center there as well.

 

There's nothing wrong with grabbing Dwayne Jarrett if he's around...
