Quote:Floyd at 5 would be terrible. He underachieved at Georgia so why should things change? I wouldn't even take him if trade down to 11. I'd rather have Lawson, Lee and even Ragland.
I think the Jags may just want him to play like he did.
Plug him in at Otto. Get 5-6 sacks/year and help out in coverage... Set the edge defensively and improve team speed.

I wouldn't even mess with Floyd dropping back. Rush...all....day....long. That's what he does best.
Leonard Floyd is a good name for a football player.
I think either way we go, we should have a good football player on our team. Some, more so than others; but we won't know until they put the pads on and start hitting the big boys. We're in a good position.
GO JAGS!!
@pschargs Here's a tip... A team with a top 10 pick scheduled a last minute meeting with Leonard Floyd on TUESDAY. Wanted one more look. @NFLonFOX
According to Alfie, Todd wash flew out to meet him on Monday.

You guys might think this is crazy, but I think the Jags are smitten with Apple. I think they want to drop back, pick a guy like Lawson or maybe this Floyd and then package picks to come back up and get Apple. That's my wild prediction. Tomorrow can't get here soon enough.
I like Mayock.
....but the Jags are gonna take Jack, Ramsey or Bosa at 5.
Jesus Christ if we actually pick Floyd at 5 I will throw up. Can we please stop trying to outsmart the draft.

This the same source that called the Sammy Watkins pick?
Welp.

You don't draft an outside linebacker, top five in the draft, to do what you mentioned.

Quote:I feel like this kid is being slept on. I see a lot of potential. It will be interesting to see what he posts at the combine. I see a lot of Von Miller in him. He is lean but has an explosive first step and bends the edge better than any player in this year's draft. He can run with tight ends and plays the run well at the linebacker position. Smooth athlete. I think he would be a great OTTO and addition to this defense. Depending on his combine numbers I would not mind drafting him at 5. He put a lot more pressure on the QB than his 4.5 sacks show and is extremely versatile.
Crazy talk, I know.

Lulz.
He has sources yo.

Lol

IDK why people do this, unless they just want to fit the agenda of the sky is falling and be doom and gloom if it happens for 4 months until the season starts. That's about all I can come up with.
How can you go from talking him like that, to saying you'd puke if we took him? I mean seriously? lol.
I could see Caldwell taking Tunsil, if he's available. Dave talks about finding a player who could help the franchise long term, and I think Tunsil fits that bill more than any other player. Plus, there's too many questions with Jack (knee) and Bosa ( natural fit in our system). I will go on record as predicting a surprise pick...Tunsil or Buckner.
I was just throwing that out there as an idea. I didn't think we'd actually do it! This would be a Gene level pick.
