Well yes this is definitely unpopular. It's inspired with the whole "Texas A&M Trifecta" thing, but I don't think it is realistic.

Well yes this is definitely unpopular. It's inspired with the whole "Texas A&M Trifecta" thing, but I don't think it is realistic.

I prefer Manziel over Boyd, but they could be interchangeable depending on preference.


Having 2 of the top OT prospects ( esp since Mathews is more of a RT, IMO) and then an Alabama guy at center would definitely help our O-line troubles....

if we are trading for a qb itll be for teddy or carr

Right. Zero chance it happens. But it won't stop 100 more people from saying it could.

Really don't think this would happen.

Jake Matthews?  Then trade up for Johnny Football?  

---

I was wrong about Trent Baalke. 

I have no idea who any of the guys are after round 3 ans that bothers me. I thought I new my players

Not unpopular, just unlikely.

 

There may be questions about Jake Matthews to answer prior to drafting him. I regard him as a top college talent over-all and a top offensive tackle talent as well, but should NFL scouts kicking the tires, so to speak, want to see him play guard it could mean they see limitations that could cause his stock to fall.

 

There will also be questions about Johnny Manziel. Questions about his maturity, his durability, and the amount of shop-wear that appears evident this year. No questions about his talent. He has a major league arm, balance, pocket awareness, etc., but he does have some red flags that he might not give satisfactory answers to.

 

If you like Texas A&M, you probably saw some games this year. I thought it was interesting you had a Bama guard listed on the wish list.

 

Why not Arie?

Demarcus Lawrence is the dreaded DE tweener. He will convert to OLB in a 3-4 defense.

 

I guess you mean Georgia Tech CB Louis Young. Haven't seen him play, and the You Tube stuff seems to be dated way back to high school.

 

David Fluellen appears to be a running back from Toledo? He has good size, 6' 0", 215 Lbs. I sort of doubt he'll be drafted. I have been monitoring Trey Watts the running back from Tulsa as a mid-round steal. Unfortunately, he might not be as under the radar as I thought.

 

Larry Webster of Bloomburg is another one of those DE tweeners. He's too light to play NFL DE, and looks to lack the athleticism to play OLB in the 3-4 defense. He's a four-year starter on Bloomburg's basketball team and decided to play football for the first time since high school in 2012. He has generated interesting stats on a small school level. That won't translate to much in terms of draft-ability.

 

University of Miami TE Asante Cleveland will likely be drafted somewhere in the draft by a team looking for the "sprint" TE. Years ago, several players made a splash in the NFL as TE-FB tweeners. Too small for blocking like a TE, and too big for FB. They were called H-backs. The Jaguars had two hybrid TEs, Pete Mitchell and Ty Hallock, the latter was successfully converted to FB and had a few years extra added onto his career. Mitchell earned success for having great hands. Pete could catch anything near him. 

 

Cleveland is like neither H-back guy, but does look the part of a "sprint" TE. Too small to in-line block, not jet-fast enough for WR. To define a "sprint" TE think of our former player Zach Miller.

Unpopular...stupid...wasteful...take your pick.

I think the Jags really like Pasztor so why draft Jake when we have a solid RT and Luke as LT? If your gonna draft oline at least trade back and take Yankey.

If Jake is the best player available when we pick it, we pick him. It doesn't matter if we have Pasztor. It's the same with all the positions. Select the best player available regardless of which position he plays.

 

That player then enters into the mix at that position. Coaches will determine who starts and who doesn't.

 

If you don't draft the best players available you will never be ladened with talented football players.

So this year we take Jake Matthews.

 

Next year, another Tackle comes out, and happens to be the best player available at our picking spot.

 

And then again in 2016

 

And again in 2017.

 

As well as 2018, 2019, and 2020.  Also 2021

 

At which point we'll have 10 Tackles

 

You're right man.  I can totally see how position doesn't matter.

Unless the players that you pick are just a little less talented but play at positions where they can be immediately effective.

 

You know, like pass rusher or something.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

1. Jake Mathews - OT

1. Johnny Manziel - QB (trade 2nd and a 4th rounder to select 17-22 overall)

3. Anthony Steen - OG (convert to center)

4. Demarcus Lawrence - DE

5. Louis Young - CB

5. David Fluellen - RB

6. Larry Webster - DE

7. Asante Cleveland - TE

 

There is a good chance he won't be there at 17.
