based on the way that draf tworks out.....
17 - DE wilkerson
28 - RB leshoure......unless tyron smith falls
33 - OT carimi....unless they draft smith at 28, then leshoure
60 - move up to 48 or so and take OLB justin houston.......reed is too much of a project at OLB to be drafted at this point
74 - CB Ras I dowling
92 - OG danny watkins
124 - used to get houston
156 - OLB steven friday
184 - DE brandon bair
I have questions about your thought process here. Why LeShoure? He will last until the middle of the second round and he doesn't seem to be a difference maker. He is o.k. Watch film. He plays slow (painful)
Why Justin Houston? He is maybe the least impressive of the outside backers other than Ayers who has poor pass rush moves and effort consistency. Reed brings somethings to the table that Houston lacks. One is a variety of moves and the other is distruptiveness that you see in a Matthews or a Jared Allen. I like to see the opposing O Line unsettled. Houston does not do that. Look at the tape. Houson has an outside speed rush (one trick pony). Reed has more moves like a spin, bull and outside. Your argument about Reed was the same issue some had with Matthews who lined up as a DE sometimes at USC. I would not be surprised to see Reed go in round one. Yes Miller. Quinn and Smith are potentially more talented but not Houson IMO. I even like Kerrigan better. Watch some tape. I like the upside of Reed and we don't use up a #17 pick.
Why on earth Tyron Smith? A 280 lb OT is not the answer for BB. Have you not seen what is happening with Koppen? Koppen is way too light and Smith is lighter. Nice athlete but not a big fellow. IMO BB won't draft a 280lb OT.
Watkins is a great pick but won't last until #92.
I like the Bair pick but, I love JJ Watt but I have a problem in that do we have him here with Mike Wright don't we? Watt is still my pick but I think Bair is again another Wright clone.
