yea i constantly throw things out there but i think i am finally satisfied with my early wish-list for the draft
First trade our first rd pick which is probally going to be 19-21 range, and obtain a 28-32 pick. as a result we end up with a later first rd pick, and an extra third rd pick.
now some of you might think its a stretch and it usually is but if i was GM for this team i would do whatever it took to do this....the reason is because of who we would draft.
1- SLB Aaron Curry From Wake Forest- the guy is a supremely underated LB, and does not get the attention he deserves. He dominates agains the run, is very versatile as he can play insdie as well. he defends the pass very well, and is suprisingly very athletic for his size. He sheds blocks well, and knows how to make plays.
My reason for this is i am tired of seeing Winborn, and boss bailey wasnt that good while he was in before his injury, not to mention he got injured every game before his season eneded. like him all you want but i want reliable at SLB. we get that with a guy like aaron Curry.
2. FS Derek Peagues from MISS ST- i think FS safety is the bigger need for us. Mcree showed us why he was let go from Sandiego, and even though manuel is horrible. mcree is terrible as well. replacing him with someone like peagues allows are CB's much more hlp. Peagues is a ballhawk and the type of safety that could finally give us that underneath help and help over top. he has good range, is a beast in coverage and can play the run well.
3a. DT Peria Jerry from OLe miss- very tough DT, he does well agains the run and shows a good ability at getting to the QB. he is well rounded and doesnt get bullied easily. its clear robertson isnt going to work here so a talent influx is needed. Powell provides depth while thomas and peterson provide solid starters
3b. ILB Daniel Holtzclaw from Eastern Michigan- Sheds blocks extremly well, very agile side line to sideline. very good blitzer, solid in coverage, and a absolute beast against the run. Nate is a stop gap and may leave after the season. Webster shouldnt be allowed to stay the starter with out competiton and niko is not that, holtclaw provides a solid numkber 2 MLB that can knock nate from his throne rather quickly.
4- RB Devin moore from Wyoming- tough runner for his size, with game changing speed, can return kicks and has very good vision. he is essentially the chris johnson of the 2009 draft. we lack this type of back, everyone wants a bruiser, but thats easier to find for our system. What we really need at Rb is a guy that can take it 65 yds in a blink. this guy is a game changer and we have lacked that speed for long runs for a very long time. a guy like torain or pittman or cory boyd, can carry the load for us but moore can provide that prototypical change of pace that selvin and hall fail miserably at.
5. DE Jeremy Jarmon from kentucky- having a very solid year, he is a very good all round DE at 275lbs. His size and power would fit well on our line. he is very good against the run and shows a good ability at rushing the passer. Engleberger may not be with the team next year nor ekuban, and moss and dumervil arent great against the run. we need more help at DE
6. OG Tyrone Greene from auburn- solid fit for the ZBS at 310 lbs provides decent size and power inside. kuper and hamilton need some depth behind them and this should be a good depth pick for us. Licht also shows the ability for ceneter and guard. so i think 1 guard will suffice.
6b. DE Jeremy Navarre from maryland- Another all round DE, i dont liek getting abused on the outside, so bigger guys with the ability to stop the run and rush the passer are what we need to llok for not 240lb De's that can do both things.
7a. S Sherrod martin from troy -a good depth pick here, rodgers, barrett and peagues would make our sfatey core ten times better than what it is now. martin is a ballhawk, but aklso shows a good ability to lay a tough hit for his 190lb frame. very solid work ethci and charcater.
7b. CB dwain crawford from baylor- a depth pick. plain and simple. Champ and Dre will be our 1 nd 2 next year, paymah will probally resign if he continues to improve and josh bell and jack williams show promise. however injuries could strike and paymah and bell could walk, so ionsurance is a must. Crawford is a very good sized corner with pretty good speed. also does well agains the run.
anyways i know you all get tired, but i like this combination of picks and think it address most of what this team needs up and down the defense as well as at RB and Guard
