Quote:Spence is a good prospect. He may have moved up in the draft with his performance at the Senior Bowl. But I'm not the one to fall in love with someone just because they did well in the Senior Bowl first and foremost. That's how Dee Ford ended up going in the first round, him and all 5.5 of his career sacks.


Secondly, I understand that there are prospects that were considered objectively better prospects going in that didn't participate. It's not that I don't like Spence, I just don't like him at #5. I think it's absurd, and it's not because other people are telling me it is, it's because there are better prospects at #5 that will be available like Jalen Ramsey and Myles Jack who both fill a need and are both some of the best prospects to come out at their position in years.

I respect that...


But I just think rankings and all of that is so irrelevant. What if the Browns took Allen Robinson at pick 22 instead of Manziel? It would be a reach and all of that NFL draft analyst stuff, but the truth is that ARob is a stud and Manziel is about to be in the CFL. I could literally care less about who is projected where. If I think Noah Spence is going to be a force for the Jacksonville Jaguars and stressing the QB alongside Dante Fowler, then I am pulling the trigger.
