Why Would You Want Rey?

[rbagcfab]

I wouldn't have posted it if I wasn't serious.

He plays alot like Webster in the fact that the mistakes he makes are the same ones that Webster has made all year.

Maualuga will be a very good 3-4 ILB, but to put him above others because of his "youtube highlights" is a stupid and childish way to go about judging a college player because all you see is the "big hits" that he actually connects with but you don't get shown all the piss poor plays they make because the person making the video is a homer for that player and whats you to think they are the best ever.

If Raji, Everette Brown, and Maybin are all off the board by our pick I hope we take Rey but I would take any of the above before using a pick on a 3-4 ILB.

Raji is a bust and you can get a better value picking a DT in the second even third with the kid from hamilton. So as far as Brown and maybin they won't be there. Plus we need a leader! How many times were we out of position and why did we have to "dumb down the system"! Because we had no leadership on the field! Who leads the D? A middle line backer.

Did they not have success in their college careers? Oh, I think they might have had a little success! Just because you were drafted late means you had no success in college?

Oh I'm sorry. I must have it the other way around. The people with success go in the later rounds and the players with no success go early!
Ahh of course , how could I of been so foolish?

I like USC and I have alot of respect because of how they compete every year, I am just not a USC homer so I can look at their players objectively which you can't seem to grasp

I am a CU fan and I hate California. Yes I am looking at it objectively. I don't like USC but I am not going to let an impact player like Rey fall past us.

Shannon Sharpe I belive was on of the leading pass catchers at the Mississippi school, Tom Brady wasn't bad in college, Terrel Davis had a good career in Georgia. Anal astronauts obiously have their heads up their....... so they can not think straight.

I respectfully disagree. Rey will be much much better than Nate Webster IMO. Rey just brings a fierceness about him that steps up everyone's play around him. He will definately improve this defense. If Everrette Brown is available then it will be a hard decision to make. I might go Brown there. But either way, to compare him to Nate Webster is crazy.

[Cutler2007]

Why wouldn't you want Malcolm Jenkins if he is there at #12? I think he is an excellent talent, but he wouldn't be my selection because we have two starters that can get the job done.

This is the same reason I do not tale Rey at #12, we have two players that can get the job done.

What we do not have is a NT or Rush backers needed to run a 3-4. Anyone who thinks we can go into the season with Woodyard, Moss, Crowder, Boss, and Doom as our OLBs, are just fooling themselves.

You can find very good 3-4 ILBs in the mid rounds, but to get elite pass rushers that can play OLB, you need to grab them early.

Teams fear their QB taking big hits.

Don't twist my words I didn't say Maualuga is gonna have a career like Webster. I think that Maualuga if picked by a decent 3-4 team like SD should have a good career, and he should be a pain in our butts. He is not something special like a once in a decade player, he is just this years version or jerod mayo It is that plain and simple.

I think he is pretty good! We need a guy that offensive players fear. I would be afraid of him!

The Rudy Carpenter clip tells me two things:
1. Rey is a crusher

2. Rudy Carpenter is a pretty tough SOB himself.

Brown had 10 of his 12.5 sacks in three games. Clemson, Maryland & Vtech. Where was the production in the other games? I think he is a good player but is he going to have the same production in the NFL going against better left tackles. The guy I like in the 5th round Victor Butler also had 21.5 TFl and 12 sacks. I think he will a great OLB in the 3-4. Plus we get a beast in Rey for the middle.

[KWHIT97]

I think Jasper Brinkley is very close to Rey's level, and he can be had in the 4th or 5th rounds!

[Den615]

i would not be upset at all if we drafted rey. he and DJ in the middle could be very good.

none of the 3-4 rush linebackers in this draft really impress me
Brown inconsistant
maybin wayyyy too small

sintim would be my first choice for a 3-4 olb, but he would be a huge reach at 12

oh i forgot about orakpo... i would gladly take him but i doubt he is there at 12

you cant want him do to youtube highlights...but i want us to draft him because i feel he has lower "bust" chances then most of the other guys we could draft.

Shannon Sharpe I belive was on of the leading pass catchers at the Mississippi school, Tom Brady wasn't bad in college, Terrel Davis had a good career in Georgia. Anal astronauts obiously have their heads up their....... so they can not think straight.

Sharpe wasn't even playing D1 football in College. (P.S. Savannah State is not in Mississippi.)

Brady was a no namer that was adequate in college with very little real success. He didn't make good decisions and lacked NFL arm strength according to scouts. He was lucky to get picked in the 6th round (had connections to Patriots), most teams had him graded a 7th round talent.

Davis wasn't even the starter for UGA and was nagged by small injury problems, on top of that, his production was hardly worth mentioning being as he didn't even spend a full four years there. He transferred in, played backup one year, and as a starter tore his hamstring his senior season.

So obviously you don't know too much to be calling people nasty names.

To stay on topic: I'd pass on Rey unless three or four other players are gone first. He's very prone to bad angles, missed tackles, and gets caught up in traffic and cannot shed blocks very well. Decent pass rusher, but horrible run defender if you run right at him. Pac ten O-lines maul him, I don't want to see him bother against NFL lines. :thumb:
