If everyone's got a mock draft, then....

it’s Be Kind to Hobos Day? Just rip that hat off his head and stomp it into the ground … that should be enough.

or two. first, there are some mocks that have smith being picked after our pick, so I dont see him not getting picked by us if he makes it that far. Some (like myself) think Smith is worth jumping up a few spots and pick him. We would do well to explore the possibility- what would it take? Maybe not that much. I think it would be a masterfvul move.

I can understand your feeling about Brinkley early. I think Brinkley will be fine in coverage. Maybe we should draft McBath at 69 and Brinkley at 101, although I think he won’t be there at 101.

I actually believe we need more than one reciever. Dillard is special, and he is worth it.

I like Brinkley a lot too. I’m not sold on Smith, he wants to be a corner not a safety

Chung is a 2nd rounder, and Johnson will fall for ?s about work ethic and just overall weight issues. Will Davis is way too high and he is more of a traditional 4-3 DE, he is too heavy to convert to OLB and is too small to be 3-4 DE. I would go for OLB at that spot, Gilbert will be gone way, way before then. Gibson is a solid pick but we haven’t shown any interest in him. I like Massaquoi, he is a good athlete, has a stand up character and is a fine football player as well, he will need time to break the stone around his hands but Austin can teach him how. Veikune is intriguing, Daniel is cool, a lil high but its all good, Carter is a solid pick, and Bell has a little too much potential to be a 7th rounder.

Alot of people believe we should get a “Kevin Burnett” type linebacker ( like Darry Beckwith)rather than a plugger like Brinkley. I disagree with that, because I believe Brinkley is very good against the pass also. Burnett could run, even possibly catch Westbrook on screens and such, but let’s not forget how important it is to force a team to run somewhere because they couldn’t run up the middle. That is what makes sense of the pick of Brinkley.

At reciever, alot of people are starting to come around about the need for 2 recievers (my belief), not one (even though Miles Austin is staying) and the reason is because the weakness in our recievers are they are not varied enough in they’re talent. If we drafted Tate and Dillard, those two recievers are different, and pose different problems for defenses. If you bring enough of these “problems” to a defense, then your offense can “click”. The kind of reciever we need the most is Dillard’s type. Nothing against Roy (I love him and think he’s gonna dominate) but we don’t have a “Scat” Wr. – “and what is that” you say.

A reciever that can make quick moves right at the line of scrimmage and seperate from DB’s quickly for a Timing pass. We don’t seem to value that type of talent enough to go after a reciever like that, and we don’t seem to have one like that at all.That is what I believe Dillard’s talent is best suited for, that “Wes Welker” role. And that is why I believe this draft we should take 2 WR’s, as well as 2 CB’s. We need every pick we have, so that’s it in a nutshell.

Tate is simply a downfield threat at every hike of the ball. Nice to have him and Austin for that.

See how this post started with linebackers, and ended with recievers? Ha!
