With our 4th pick?

I'm still intrigued by RB Marcus Lattimore. Before his injury he was a top 10 pick in this draft. If we selected him he may not play this year, but that'd be fine. We'd have Ballard, Brown, Carter. Brown is in his last year of his contract and then Lattimore fills in for Brown the following year.


 


Or we can go with the safer option and get RB Stepfan Taylor from Stanford.

I'm holding out hope that we land Lattimore as Mr. Irrelevant!

I think Grigson should consider another OG, OT, FS, or ILB in that order.

 

First, after watching Thorton's tape, he could potentially slide in at either tackle position in a pinch.  So drafting another guard wouldn't be an issue.

 

I like Bailey even though we just grabbed Thornton.  Bailey is another huge guard that packs a punch.  I just  do not have faith in McGlynn, Ijalana, or Reitz for that matter, only because the latter two can't stay healthy.

 

Maybe look at Jordan Mills because he is versatile up & down the line. 

 

I feel if we fix the offensive line, then everything else will take care of itself, including our abysmal rushing attack.

 

Reddick is another player whose value is really good at this point.

 

I'd look at safety with our 6th rounder--- Ray-Ray, Slaughter, maybe Lester if he drops.

 

Add another offensive lineman and Burkhead in the 7th.

Burkhead is another Donald Brown with slightly less speed,

Yankie come out this year or is he still at Stanford?

 

 

Still at Stanford.   Moved back inside to guard where he shines.   He should go pretty high next year,  likely Day 2.

 

We've got some really good o-line in the pipeline coming....

 

But the bigger shock....   we've got some very, very good defensive players coming starting next year....

    • Thank you. You guys are too kind, but I truly appreciate the support.    Perhaps I am being too hard on myself… But my point still stands that anyone who makes it to the NFL, whether practice squad or starter, has achieved something prestigious that only a rare few ever achieve.    Over a million high schoolers play. Of those only 7.8 percent move on to play in college.    Over 80,000 people play in college. Only 0.4 percent make it to opening day in the NFL.    Only 2,016 players make it to NFL rosters. 
    • Davis had a very good rookie season after being drafted in the 2nd round out of Ohio State (I believe).   Graded in the 70’s against both the run and pass.      But his last three years have been disappointing, as he’s graded in the mid-50’s.   The reason I’m so interested in this signing, is (A) I’m sure it was heavily influenced by the new DL coach, Partridge.   And (B) we’re paying him 2/14.  I don’t recall that kind of money ever being given to a basic backup before.   Don’t think Davis is here to push Stewart, the Colts just signed him to 3/39.  That tells me the Colts defensive staff sees him differently.   I don’t know what the plan the staff has come up with for Davis, but I’m looking forward to watching it play out. 
    • What I’m reading on him the Pacers did get good value. Looks like he will need time to develop but he is in the right situation to do that. The pacers are stacking some quality young players that will prove to be more outstanding depth or assets if they choose to make a trade. Very exciting time for the team right now.  
    • I’m not a religious person, but since you’re an educator I think you’re doing Gods work!   In these crazy insane times we’re all living in you’re doing one of the toughest jobs on earth.  And you’re teaching perhaps the most difficult generation to deal with.     From a distance it feels like you’re being very unfair to you.  I’m hoping in time you’ll see yourself in a completely different light.    Someone highly thought of.  A leader in the community.  A protector of young minds.   I couldn’t admire a teacher more.
