2014 Players To Watch


Recommended Posts

Stephen Tuitt, DE, Notre Dame

6’6″ and 305 pounds.

Had 47 tackles, 12 sacks from his 3-4 DE position

I really like this guy if he comes out next year as a junior

Geez, I'm seriously gonna scout the crap out of this guy. Not only is Redding 33, but D-line depth is vital in our new system, as well as the most important position on the field.

Anthony Bar, OLB, UCLA is my dream pick, but he'll likely be gone when we pick.

Would be perfect in our 3-4 and take over from Mathis when he's gone.

 

Stephen Tuitt DE, Bradley Roby CB, Loucheiz Purifoy CB, Marqise Lee, Sammy Watkins, Kyle Van Noy OLB.

I am looking at 2 potential cap casualties or players we wont be able to/want to re-sign - Antoine Bethea and Donald Brown.

 

Damien Williams, RB, Oklahoma, hopefully he is a late first round pick, I would love to have him :)

 

C.J.Barnett, FS, Ohio State, hopefully he becomes a productive player like other Buckeyes Malcolm Jenkins, Nate Clements, Donte Whitner etc.

 

The latter one, we have a very good chance late in round1, I feel.

 

Morgan Breslin, OLB, USC is interesting as well, he might be available late round 1 like his predecessor Nick Perry that went to the Packers.

Oh no, the RB in the first talk has already begun.

I expect Marqise Lee to drop a bit (from his current top 10 ranking) because of poor quarterback play (Barkley is gone).

 

So I'm keeping an eye out on him, Watkins and that kid from Rutgers. The Colts should go receiver very early next year. Of course, it's too early to really tell.

Jake Mattews

Jadeveon Clowney (its still early anything can happen between now and day one of the draft next year)

Marqise Lee

Sammy Watkins

Jordan Mattews

Stephen Tuitt

Dude would have to get severely injured to fall out of the top 7.

Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson. Assuming he goes back to his 2011 form.

 

I really like Marquis Lee though, but there's no way he falls to the mid 20 range unless he has a really bad year.

who knows i mean 2 years ago Robert woods was supposed to be locked in the top 10

    • If you are relying upon history, does accuracy matter?  I think the reason Smith ended up at RT is because the coaches tried him there out of necessity and he played well, and stayed there due to the coaches wishes.  I don't think that FO guys had much to say about it, because Smith was in fact drafted to be a G, not the RT.  Ballard's own words after day 2 of that draft was that they drafted Smith a bit higher than they had him ranked, because he was the "last remaining starting caliber G on the board".   So it does fit that Smith was not drafted by Ballard or the FO to be a RT...in part because of the measurables and arm length.   Also directing this response to @Matthew Gilbert
    • Same. And that's because over time that level of depth eventually decays. 
    • I don't think players like Davis (and especially Bryan, who I don't think will make the final 53) should impact our draft strategy at all. Not even a little bit. If we like Byron Murphy, figure out what to do with those other guys later. The other versatile guys you mention don't scratch the itch the way Murphy would be expected to -- he should be looked at as a disruptive 3T who plays there every down, not a matchup guy or passing downs guy.    If anything, maybe it's the other way around. The Colts already had a feel for the DTs in draft class and knew they wouldn't get what they want in the draft, so they addressed the position in free agency. And after this weekend, that might help people better understand the strategy at DB and WR...    The bolded really gets at the heart of it. I like Murphy, but I'm not offering him as a great player that you just have to take a chance on. But when it comes to draft strategy, I think taking the best players is the way to go. I'm directly opposed to needs-based drafting, and to passing on a really good prospect because you have backup level veterans already on the roster. 
    • I suppose Murphy being the next Donald is possible, but I wouldn’t think it’s likely.     As for Smith playing right tackle, I believe I was simply echoing Ballard’s initial viewpoint.  That Smith’s short arms made him an unlikely RT.  And that he had to be talked into it by Morocco Brown and Ed Dodds.   I don’t think I was stating MY personal view.    As for skillset vs measurements.  I think it’s been an issue for all of us because Ballard has such specific requirements for each position.  So we factor that into our judgements. 
    • Bold prediction?    I will predict either Kwity or Pierce will be traded sometime during the draft.
