Quote:Frail, that's the argument for picking a guy like Leonard Williams.  If you think that he is going to be in the top 5-10 in pass rush efficiency from the DT spot for a Decade or so and that's his FLOOR then I can understand where you're coming from.  I may not agree with the premise, but I can understand it.  MY gut reaction is predicated on the Historical trend of the position and the overall impact to a Defense, but If the Jags Think he is a full tier above all the edge guys then you take him. 

 

In fairness, I have watched Fowler and I didn't understand him being talked about in the top ten, Ray is undersized, Gregory is undersized, above average production and less explosive than expected for his height and weight, and Beasley is adding weight to an undersized frame and there are questions as to how he would hold up on First down. 

 

Truth be told, this year above all others I don't envy being Dave Caldwell.  In my perfect world the Titans take a none QB prospect and we can trade down.
But that's the thing.... If Williams is on the board, you wouldn't take him? Everyone else has more question marks than he does and he's the #1 prospect this year overall. He's going to be a monster.
We just have different opinions on the prospect. I don't see monster. I see Kevin Williams Gerald McCoy or even dare I say it sendarick marks. That's really good, I just don't know if it's the overall good.


But I get what you're saying. If the rest of the guys are wildcards wear can you do.

Gerald McCoy is a monster ....


Williams is the best prospect in this draft and if he is there at 3, I expect him to be starting in Jacksonville from day 1.
