I’m seeing a lot of players and former players (MjD and Griffin) who prefer Walker as well. The more I see the more OK I’d be with a pick, though I’ve been on the Hutchinson bandwagon since the beginning
I wouldn't like it, but I wouldn't completely hate it either. Walker does simply move differently than everyone else in the class. I get why FOs and coaches think they can develop him into the best player from this draft.
I will say that I don't get the Walker/Aldon comp they are very different players. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

You don't spend a #1 overall pick or even a first or second day pick on a guy that you have to teach a whole new position to. If we drafted Walker, I may have to walk away. This would be akin to when we selected Matt Jones in the first round and tried to make him a WR. (04-11-2022, 10:22 AM)NYC4jags Wrote: Piggybacking on that with a Baalke rumor ^ Aldon Smith? He's willing to risk it all to get a guy like Aldon Smith? I've heard many people comparing Hutchinson to guys like Ryan Kerrigan and Jared Allen and Baalke would rather have a guy that compares to Aldon Smith?
Just don't see anything special from Hutch. And his 3-cone sucked. The time was great, the performance was absolutely garbage... that little stutter step instead of bending? Ew. Gross.
Yeah my gut is still to go with Hutch. I don’t like drafting guys based on combine related potential.

I thought we already tried drafting players based on their physical traits? Taven and Chaisson for example.
Still, I'm not an expert on collegiate prospects but I just feel we'll draft the wrong guy whoever it is.
Why risk so much for walker
Hutch is clearly the safe option, why role the dice on 1 player

They need to take who they feel will be the best player and not just take a guy because they think he's safe. With that said, I think Hutch is the better player and will have the better career, i dont think its rolling dice with Walker because hes a pretty good player though. Hopefully they get it right

No, I wouldn't put it passed Baalke at all, which is why I wanted him fired so badly. I don't trust the guy at all. Hopefully, he isn't as stupid as I think he is.

They are glorified run stuffers. We desperately need pass rushers and in a 3-4 scheme, the pass rush comes from the OLB's. Drafting a 3-4 DE in round 1 is about asinine as taking a RB in the first round.
I know a franchise that did. Twice. I'll wait until draft night vefore I can relax - hopefully
