What current players do our draft picks remind you of?

[juxtapoz15]

I heard yesterday that Gronk reminded people of Jason Witten. So I was curious who our new draft picks remind people of....

 

[BradyMossWelker]

McCourty- Mel Blount
Rob Gronkosky- Kellen Wislow
Jermaine Cunningham- Lawrence Taylor
Brandon Spikes- **** Butckus/Mike Singletary
Taylor Price- Jerry Rice
Aaron Hernandez- Ozzie Newsome
Zoltan Mesko- Ray Guy
Ted Larsen- John Hannah
Thomas Welch- Art Shell
Brandon Deaderick- Joe Greene
Kade Weston- Alan Page
Zac Robinson- Tom Brady

Thats just me, I think they have about the same talent. Just my opinion.

You are very generous in your comparisons.

Zac Robinson to Tom Brady? Brandon Spikes to **** Butkus?

Zac Robinson is more like a Jake Plummer

Brandon Spikes is more like a problem along the lines of a young Ray Lewis.

Sure, but they can improve.

 

[WhiZa]

McCluster -> Revis
Gronk -> Daniel Graham
Cunningham -> Quentin Groves
Spikes -> Bruschi
Hernandez -> Chris Cooley
Zoltan -> Shane Lechler

The rest I have no idea about

Yeah...the spikes to Butkus is...let's say...a stretch?!

I was actually gonna post on Spikes before i read any of theses. SPikes reminds me of a younger bryan Cox. AND i'll be honest what put my over the edge was the eye gauge incident! It's not a bad thing...i'm not calling him a "dirty player" for life....it's just something that Cox would have done!

I'm not sure you understood the sarcasm.

[Box_O_Rocks]

Sure, but they can improve.

Where are rep points when you need them?

 

[RobertWeathers]

Gronk=Jasonn Witten. Yes, I think Gronk is that good.
Cunningham=Roosevelt Colvin
Spikes=Jeremiah Trotter
Aaron Hernandez=Chris Cooley
Zac Robinson=Matt Cassel/Tony Romo hybird

I see Gronk as a much better run blocker than Whitten.

 

[BradyBranch39]

gronkowski -- witten
robinson -- tyler thigpen
hernandez -- cooley seems ok because of the hback label
mesko -- sepulveda
spikes -- brooking

 

[TealSox]

McCourty - Jabari Greer (former Bill, current Saint)

Zac Robinson - Stanford version of John Elway (see footwork)

Brandon Spikes - Antonio Pierce

Gronkowski - Kevin Boss

Hernandez - Zach Miller

Zoltan - Matt Turk

 

[TapDancing39]

Devin McCourty - Ronde Barber (shutdown corner) Ellis Hobbs (returning)
Rob Gronkoski - Jason Whitten/Zach Miller
Jermaine Cunningham - _________
Brandon Spikes - Takeo Spikes (Obnoxious Game Day Attitude: Ray Lewis)
Taylor Price - Santana Moss
Aaron Hernandez - Dustin Keller (receiving tight end)
Zoltan Mesko - Shane Lechler
Zac Robinson - Kevin O'Connell (he's quick and athletic, just not very a good passer)

 

[PatsCanDoIt]

McCourty= Leon Hall
Gronk= between boss and witten
Cunningham= Rosie Colvin
Spikes= David Harris
Price= Greg Jennings (ceiling)
Hernandez= Cooley
Larsen= Any pats interior lineman
Welch= Any pats OT
Deaderick= Le Kevin Smith
Weston= ????

 

[hammertime]

McCourty plays a lot like Revis. He has that upside.

Gronk is so smooth...I think of Todd Heap.

Cunningham has Demarcus Ware type speed in the short shuttle, I think he has elite upside.

Spikes is Bart Scott in terms of playing style, but Ray Lewis in terms of draft status; he slipped because of an overestimated flaw and I think he could be very good here.

Price could make a Mike Wallace type impact right away, and I think he has a Santana Moss ceiling. Remember, Moss was once very good.

Hernandez has a Dallas Clark ceiling because he's so good at catching the ball.

Larsen is a center. He does center things. Olin Kreutz?

Welch is a late bloomer. I'm thinking Mike Gandy, except a little better.

Deaderick, Weston and Robinson...w/e they're seventh rounders. Weston reminds me a little of Jarvis though.
