With Gregory and Ray potentially falling, and Harold likely available at or just above our second round pick, does that make you more comfortable in taking Williams or Cooper at 3 (probably the best 2 players in the draft)? Even though they're seen as lesser positions of need than a Leo.


If Gregory or Ray is still on the board in the mid 20's would you trade up?
Gregory is the only guy out of Ray/Gregory/Harold I would consider drafting at all.

 

*EDIT* and no I would not trade up for Gregory.

Now way am I trading up for two guys that are already in the NFL drug program

I didn't think Ray was in the drug program. He got a citation, but didn't fail a drug test during the process did he? I could well be wrong.


Both Ray and Gregory and top 10 talents though so would the risk not be worth it?
"tweener purgatory"

 

Take a flier on a project like Max Valles late in the draft and call it a day.  I don't see any pass rusher (other than Williams if you consider him that) worth trading up in any round for.

Yes he wasnt smoking the weed, but what I read was the citation put him in the drug program since he had the weed on him

 

I would still take Ray at 36 but wouldnt trade up for him

Gregory I wouldnt touch until round 3

To me Vic Beasley is going to be a great Weak OLB they compared him to Ware but why would you draft him at #3 overall or even in the first round if you are the Jaguars when you already have been blessed with an even better Weakside OLB in Telvin Smith last year in the 5th round?


Doesnt make sense to me for Jags to get Vick Beasley for that reason.  


When it comes to Fowler I guess I am confused as to where you are putting him if the strong side OLB why did you sign Skuta from the 49ers then if you bring in Fowler he has the potential to be much better than Skuta & move Skuta for depth making the LB core one of the best in the league (hopefully) with Telvin Smith, Poz, Fowler & Skuta for depth not bad...

but if you are moving him to LE why did you resign Tyson Alualu and bring in Odrick for I mean they could move around or cut / trade a guy I guess if they start Fowler at LE (I wouldnt really rotate him out that much though)...


If you get Williams he is so verstiale that he can go to any slot should you have a need or injury or just to mess with the opponets offense and him & Marks would be a feirce rushing DT combo in the NFL.....


so Williams or Fowler wouldnt really make me upset...

 

If you go with Cooper he can immediately help out Bortles with a true deep threat and a real #1 WR from the start of the season allowing Robinson & Hurns to get open more since he'll draw the double coverage...  maybe not right away but by mid season to end...

and White would be a Justin Blackmon kind of replacement competeing with Allen Robinson for short gain slant plays or maybe have him go over the middle a lot... but I doubt it I figure that will be Thomas...

 

If they go with Brandon Scherff why did you sign RT from Dallas or are you then planning on replacing Beadles at LG???? Still he would be a good starter at either position I assume RG is taken...

Peat could replace Luke but then you have him in depth...

 

Trae Waynes seems a bit early at #3 but still a huge need for CB and he isnt the strongest CB like Sherman is in Seattle, rather more of an island guy like Revis still a great Corner to help the defense out...


Im excited because if they dont trade down *and dont do something stupid, there are a lot of guys that can immediately help the team out..
