Quote:If you take Joey Bosa, you play him at the 5T. Jared Odrik is capable of playing the 3T, which would keep Marks fresh for 3rd downs (which is where Caldwell says they value Marks the most).
If you sign Vernon and draft Bosa, you should be set on the D-Line. If we could get a D that causes pressure like Denver, Carolina, Houston, etc. and combine in with our offense, you have a playoff team. A rotation of Vernon, Bosa, Fowler, Odrik, Marks, Miller, and Davis could be beastly. Could you imagine Bosa bull rushing the RT with Fowler rushing from off his hip, and having Vernon and Marks/Odrik coming from the other side?
Dave could then sign a FA FS/CB and then draft the other spot in the 2nd round.
But but but Bosa isnt your ideal leo
What if Caldwell's statement about a FS is harder to find than a qb is his ploy to make Weddle or Berry feel wanted here and sign with us lol? Just a thought.

After thinking about this, I would very much welcome this. It would sure up the line with youth and dominance. This would be a great influx of pass rushers in this instance although I think www plus need to sign one more LEO like a Vinny Curry or Mike Neal caliber player.
Really this is an alternative option to Ramsey that I think could possibly be better. FA I think will determine the direction we go in the draft.

Their DBs sure didn't suck though.

Swap our DBs for their's Denver still wrecks Brady and we still suck dick!

Gross exaggeration, ^ but somewhat true.
Jags don't have a guy that would make a few of the plays Talib made yesterday vs Brady and a few of them were critical.

NE oline is horrible wirh their injuries though. They will need their good secondary when they play a good oline like Car. or any othe decent oline
Quote:Their DBs sure didn't suck though.
No they didn't, but the fact that both safeties were backups in the second half tells you a good pass rush makes the secondary look better than it is. Would you expect Shiloh Keo to look like T.J. Ward in Jacksonville? I wouldn't.
Quote:Yes. I honestly wouldn't be upset at drafting 8 defensive lineman. It will make the entire defense better.
Gene Smith already tried that approach using his 1st 4 picks on the DLine (Alualu, Smith, Lane, Hart) -- perhaps one of the worst drafts ever.

If only the first round pick was JPP . . .

I remember I thought Larry Hart was going to be the [BLEEP]. Turned out to just be [BLEEP]
Quote:Disgusting draft.
It sure was. The Derek Cox trade doomed it from the start. Then Gene Smith only made it worse by not drafting a lineman who deserved to be picked at #10 overall.

It really depends on what we do in FA and the draft

You don't think the Jaguars already know Dante Fowler is an ideal Leo after they spent so much time watching game tapes and talking to him before the draft?

He is also an ideal OTTO. If we are some how able to draft Bosa, Bosa will get that spot and Fowler will start at OTTO along with being move all over the front 7. FA and the draft will be telling

Joey Bosa was strictly a DE at Ohio State. He will not be a part time OLB in any NFL defense.
