Quote:I hope so, but all I'm saying for those guys all on Ramsey's bandwagon, IDK how he gets to us unless DAL is set at CB/S. Plus, with Weddle leaving SD, there's a solid shot that Ramsey could be seriously considered there as well.

 

Who do we go with at 5 anyways? That's my question. I'm sure players will move up and down from now til than, but man, looking at it right now it's tough. Would have easily said Jaylon but with the injury it's tough. I like Jack, but he could be a reach that high although I think he'll be a hell of a problem. Just an odd spot to be in. Hopefully Buckner kills it from now til draft time as I'm a fan.

 

Thing is, Dallas and SD don't run the type of scheme that we run (or like to run). Their scheme doesn't call for a single-high FS with range, so a FS of Ramsey's caliber isn't (or IMO shouldn't) be that high on their draft board. And as much as I like Ramsey (and I do for us, a perfect fit IMO), I don't think his value is as high as a CB as it is for FS.

 

If he *is* gone...there's a couple of other things I'm kind of brainstorming (and this is just me envisioning, nothing based on comments by Gus or Dave or whoever). Granted things will still change, but here's a name that is intriguing for me: Reggie Ragland.

 

It's a big risk taking a LB that high, but he's an intriguing name for me for one reason only. Assuming that we can sign a Gipson for FS and take the risk of JPP/Mario/Vernon for a veteran pass rusher...it allows us to move Fowler to OTTO. Do you see where I'm going with this yet?

 

Telvin - Ragland - Fowler

 

O...M...G...

 

The range of that LB trio, the motor, and sheer violence of that LB group? That group would own the 2nd line of the defense (and Fowler can still line up at LOS on obvious pass rushing situations)

 

EDIT: had to clean up my keyboard
