If Picard say's so, who am I to argue. I'll start one up later this evening.

This year proved a big adjustment to me in terms of philosophy; I think I was still too stuck in the traditional 34 defensive prototypes. Next year I should have a better handle on the team/scheme fits.

Wish I could list myself as a person of interest. I'm only twenty-four, I'd love to play football, and I am an elite-level athlete. If BB can draft a rugby player, then why not a parkour instructor?

Ochmed Jones

2013 - the year of the safety. After a couple of lean years, we could see an explosion of safeties in 2013.

Lester of Alabama (my tp choice)
Rambo of Georgia (Great name)
Vacarro of Texas
Boyett of Oregon
McDonald of USC
Armstrong of Miami

Another couple of guys I like:

TE Eifert of Notre Dame
OLB Taylor of SC
OLB Montgomery of LSU
RB Lattimore of SC (if healthy)
RB Ware of LSU
CB Banks of Miss State
OTs Faulk and Hurst of LSU

Gronkandez

At only 5'9" I wonder how he would hold up making tackles at the LOS. Seems like a tweener to me on defense.

Off The Grid

I salute you, Brother Reamer: You're well ahead of the curve.

Most of the posts I see are still bogged down in "34" thinking.

I'm sure we'll still play that, from time to time.

But behind the "245" ~ my favorite!! ~ the "425", and various other permutations ~ accent on the "mutations!!" ~ the "34" may come in 4th or 5th in terms of Market Share!!

I am going to go ahead and assume Chandler Jones,Bequette and Hightower are super studs and kind of lay off the LB and DE's for a while.

Things to keep in mind. BB was in a perfect position this year to move up and get players. Due to the rookie salary cap I don't think he will ever be able to acquire/stockpile picks like that again as they were certainly devalued this year after the top 10 went off the board. Picking 32 will be hard but I'm sure we will find someone to fill our needs


Safety/Cb. I want a top notch guy that can cover just about the entire field. A play maker a run stopper, someone they don't have to move all the way up to 7 for. If it is a Cb conversion project so be it. We'll see how Gregory and Wilson pan out. Possibly Dennard but I see him more as a slot cb with that mean jam of his.

Offensive Line. Replenish the core, always look for LTs who are versatile. Enough said there. Can never have enough.

DT. Unfortunately this is looking like a lame class of Lackeys so far. There are a couple of potential guys out there but hopefully some one will put their game together as the season goes on.

Kr/Wr/Te. Want a smallish, lightning quick, evasive Kr that doubles as a Wr. There were a few that fit the bill but were left out to dry. As far as Wr's, I think we will need one unless BB goes the free agent route again. I'd like to see a play at making both Gronk and Hernandez extended but I think their agents will be too smart for that. We should probably try drafting another just in case.
