Flankers: OutSide LineBackers
What an incredibly deep Draft Class. Considering how utterly bereft last year’s deep Draft Class was, of 6.4/250-275 pound Athletes who could potentially fit Coach Bill’s prized role, the depth of talent in this year’s crew is simply ASTOUNDING.
A great number of these guys are projected Defensive End Conversions.
Top Tier
*DaQuan Bowers, Clemson ~ 6.4/275
*Robert Quinn, North Carolina ~ 6.5/270
**Aldon Smith, Missouri ~ 6.5/260
Second Tier
Ryan Kerrigan, Purdue ~ 6.3/265
Jeremy Beal, Oklahoma ~ 6.3/265
Akeem Ayers, UCLA ~ 6.4/255
Greg Romeus, Pittsburgh ~ 6.5/270
I have passed over a number of great prospects whose measurements don’t fit our scheme.
Third Tier
Jabaal Sheard, Pittsburgh ~ 6.3/255
Mark Herzlich, Boston College ~ 6.4/245
*Vince Brown, NorthWestern ~ 6.5/265
*Quint Coples, North Carolina ~ 6.6/270
*Frank Alexander, Oklahoma ~ 6.4/250
*Vinny Curry, Marshall ~ 6.4/250
*Justin Houston, Georgia ~ 6.3/260
Late Round Dark Horses
Sam Acho, Texas ~ 6.3/260
Pierre Allen, Nebraska ~ 6.4/265
Cliff Matthews, South Carolina ~ 6.4/270
Ricky Elmore, Arizona ~ 6.5/260
Brookes Read, Arizona ~ 6.3/260
Ryan Winterswyk, Boise State ~ 6.4/265
Karl Klug, Iowa ~ 6.3/270
Brandon Bair, Oregon ~ 6.6/270
Christian Anthony, Grambling ~ 6.4/275
Binkie Alert!!
God help me: I'm gonna have to break these guys down, one by one, in individual posts. The truth of the matter is that I've got a ManCrush on no less than a DOZEN of these guys.
With speculation that Rosters are going to expand by about 10% after the CBA is finally agreed to, I'd love to see us get extremely aggressive in a Draft that offers ASTONISHING Depth of Talent at this position. If it were up to me, we'd not only hit this position twice in the Top 64, we'd follow up in the late rounds with two more, with a mind towards fielding no less than 6 Flankers on our Final Roster, which could possibly go as high as 60.
