Since it's gonna keep changing as we win/lose games. Or as other teams win/lose games. Who do we pick if we're sitting at #3 come draft day?
I could see Clowney falling to us if Texans go Teddy. Best case is the Redskins win some games with Cousins and bump us up to #2.
I saw on DraftCountdown.com that Anthony Barr would fall to Jacksonville at #5. I could live with that.
I see us beating the Titans. So factor that into where we pick
Barr would please me the most. Outside Teddy, I'm not sold on any of the other QBs. Caldwell will have to make a difficult decision as we cannot continue with Ghenne, but the QB class looks suspect once again.
If we're at three, I'm assuming the Texans take Teddy and the Rams take Clowney or Matthews.
In that scenario, I'm thinking Barr or Carr. Both raw prospects with a ton of physical tools and upside as well as production. Would be happy with either.
Fales is my QB, but I question his athleticism, hair, and name.
If not Teddy then I want Barr. I think he would be a better fit for the current defensive scheme.
I think Barr could work wonders on this offense..however in still not convinced Texans don't go Clowney.
The idea of the best de tandem in the league for the next 10 years or so might overwhelm them, especially if they think this is a deep class or go after cutler in fa (if he hits it). Right now picking top 5 I'd be happy with Clowney/Barr/Teddy/Carr...
In no particular order ofcourse.
BAP
See how easy that was.

This.
I think Barr is going #3 in the Draft. Ahead of Clowney
I think I'll let this play out. Too much time for me to speculate and too much time before the combine. Can't we just enjoy the progress we are seeing and leave it at that?

Clowney and Watt, dang that would be something
I was looking at the Texans MB and they seem to be all about Clowney or Matthews. Seems like the want to keep Keenum

The thing is, with the HC gone, and a new one coming in next year, And the QB class of this year, and maybe even a new GM depending on how things go... I doubt the Texans MB will reflect any of the feelings the new leadership will have when they come in. And I promise that if the redskins stay at #2 the rams will find someone to trade back with that will take Teddy, hell it might even be the vikings who looks like they'll have a new HC next year as well. The Rams are going to have draft picks stockpiled for the next 5 years at this rate.
Does anyone know, is there a size limitation to playing the LEO?
As in, is Clowney actually too big for the position?
Obviously he is explosive enough but the LEO always seems to be a good deal smaller... 6'2" 250-ish.
My bigboard as of right now
1. Clowney
2. Barr
3. Carr
4a. Bortles
4b.. Teddy
5. Mack
If we land Clowney at 3 it would be the steal of the draft in my opinion.

I think the way the position is designed, whoever it is needs to be quick more than big, and usually the larger u get the slower they are, remember they aren't lining up directly on the line they have some extra ground to cover so they have to have the speed to make up for it.

Right but Clowney is pretty fast, so does his size exclude him? Or is it ok as long as the player is fast enough?
Clowney or Barr in the 1st and McCarron or Bortles in the 2nd. Yes and thank you. If we have to and Caldwell feels like Mccarron or Bortles wont be there in the 2nd, then trade back into the first to get em
