no excuses for skill position players from the “blame the OL” crowd is Kalil is the pick

I like on CB we have already. I think he could turn out to be very good if given the chance.

Look, everyone who keeps saying we need to take ‘elite’ talent….you never know where elite talent is until they actually play. Nicks was a 5th round pick but he’s the #1 Guard in the NFL. Wes Welker, Tom Brady, etc. Either undrafted or low round picks surprise us all the time. High round picks disappoint the same way. We just need some talent, I don’t care what round they find it in. Whether they are ‘elite’ or not will have to wait until they actually play at the next level.

Pass on Kalil if he falls to us???!! Are you crazy?? A blindside LT that is dominant is the next best thing to a franchise QB. I would say get him and move Penn to RT. That would equal MOST DOMINANT O-LINE IN NFL. Heck even Lumpkin could run behind those guys!

@Bvert38 thank you i have been begging for Dominick to make that exact move our biggest need is LB!!!! Hands down we had the worst group of LB’s last year and we have done nothing but release one of them. So we either have to sign Lofton before the draft and if not Luke Kuechly is the only answer!!! Think about how much sense this would make we get the best LB available and hes rated as the #7 prospect already so its not like we would be taking a reach. ANd just like he said if you have any doubts about the kid go watch his highlight film he doesnt miss tackles. Also if he would’ve came back for his SR year he would’ve shattered the NCAA career tackling record, no doubt about it. Also he is a true 3 down LB he would never have to come off the field. His career at BC he averaged 13.5 tackles per game!!!! That insane especially when you realize he started from his freshman year. He made BC fans not miss Mark Hurzlich when he got sick because Kuechly held down the defense single handedly. And we would be able to get atleast another 2nd rd pick in this years draft which would give us 2 picks early in the 2nd round. Then we could either go rb,cb, or another lb actually we could get 2 out of the 3 in the 2nd round alone and then just draft for depth after the 2nd rd. This would give us almost endless options and make the most sense.

Mikenice, if we draft Kalil, it’s for an immediate starting position or soon to be starting position.
We need to draft whomever is highest on our BPA chart. We’ve done too much drafting for need, as of late, and we can’t waste the opportunity of a top 5 pick.

Trade down. Tebow is going to the Jets or Raiders anyway

I think the analysis by Bvert38 is right on the money. It appears that Richardson may be damaged goods….he has yet to run for anyone and you just can’t risk a #5 on a RB in that situation! (Cadillac Williams comes to mind). Anyhow, if JB is available I take him as the best available. If not, do the trade down, pick up nothing short of a #2 and hopefully grab Kuechly and perhaps CB Jenkins in the 2nd rd.

Pete, that’s a recipe for poor drafting. Kalil is so much more BPA than Kirkpatrick it is ridiculous to think we’d take him over Kalil. Need or not.

Lol @ Tebow..nonsense. Why would you want to draft Kalil with your first overall pick when he wont even start right away? To add depth to a position that needs it far less than several other positions on our team? Nope. No way. We can take a range of people..Blackmon, Claiborne, Richardson, and we can even take Kuechly or Kirkpatrick too..any of these players would add instant talent and depth to much needed areas. Honestly, would you prefer to see Vincent Jackson, Justin Blackmon, Mike Williams and Benn all running routes for us, or would you like to see Donanld Penn and Matt Kalil swapping in and out at LT fighting for a starting spot? Would you rather see Blount and Richardson running all over opposing defenses behind the blocking of Zuttah, Nicks, Penn and Joseph, or would you rather see Matt Kalil sitting on the bench? Or how about Claiborne/Kirkpatrick, Wright, Talib and Barber in the secondary? Granted Barber isn’t what he used to be and Talib is questionable, but it sounds a lot better than our secondary last season. Some of you are dillusional fans. Tebow and Kalil. They will take us to the next level! Take us to chapionship games! Yeah, right!

Tebow says he wants to play in Florida. Make the trade it’s a no lose deal.
