Quote:We can write Bortles/Manziel/Matthews off. Bortles is not ready, Manziel is too risky, Pasztor has been lauded. This leaves us with Mack/Barr/Watkins. Not sure how I feel about Sammy's height, and not sure which LEO candidate is better

 

The only dline/pass rusher I'd want at that pick is Clowney (unless there's a significant trade down).  Does anyone here believe Mack/Barr has a 15 sack NFL season in them?   I'd go Watkins in your scenario (not mine though).  Then grab a pass rusher in FA and hope you hit on a diamond in the rough in the mid rounds.  The biggest problem with picking Watkins is that you still need an elite pass rusher and an elite QB.  But if you believe those players aren't there at #3, picking the guy anyway doesn't solve the problem either.
