Jeffrey Simmons....not until way late...and Kevin bum ass Dodd was drafted with little experience and a known injury.
Simmons started the 2nd game he was available lol
Dodd wasn’t a 1st round pick. Keep trying.

I don't think we sign clowney. If we do, obviously this mock is worthless lol. Also, corner with our first pick could very well happen, but i just believe with dline being thin and corner being deep, this is how it will play out.
For the people who think getting another dlineman isn't important, you're wrong. We played with 3 down lineman on the field a lot last year. Mack and Jack (whoever these bums are) should never see the field...ever...plus, daquon Jones is mediocre and getting old with an expiring contract.
I understand the argument that corner is a bigger need, but you're crazy if you think we're ok at dline. And no its not a "myth" that you need 3 dlineman. 34 Defense isn't just a "myth" its an actual base defense that teams have been using for many, many years.
No one said we are fine at DL. I said our starters are basically set.
And yeah a NT is not a starter. That’s a myth. They don’t play starter snaps. That’s just a fact.
Nothing to try about lol. I said he’s done it before...He has. It’s factual information. He drafted Jeff Simmons knowing he was injured and wouldn’t start early in the season if at all. They weren’t even sure and said as much. They were willing to let him sit the entire year barring his recovery. He drafted Kevin Dodd at the top of the 2nd knowing he was injured...(Kevin Dodd was a first round projection that fell due to years of production and hey...injury concerns). Not sure why you are arguing he didn’t....but whateverSimmons started the 2nd game he was available lol

Exactly. Daquon jones is our NT. We're getting our other starter tomorrow night more than likely

He still knew Simmons would be playing(and starting) at some point in the season though. It's not like he drafted him to sit on the bench and learn all season. JR definitely wants his first couple picks to play and be impactful their first year.. He's not afraid to take a guy with injury concerns, but he's not gonna draft a guy to warm the bench either.
This is why oline on day one(and even day 2) is improbable this year
Not bad, not bad. REALLY hoping we can pull off some trade backs to add picks.Here's my mock draft on PFF:

There are only 5 impact 3-4 DE. They will all be gone by the time our second round pick arrives. Hence my belief that we replace Casey in round 1.
Again, unless there is some plan to address it in FA.
How does Madubuike not fit??? He played every spot across the line at A&M. He is strong as an ox...31 reps at 225lbs was near tops for DL...Blacklock didn't lift for some reason....Elliott put it up 24 times.....quickness wise Madubuike ran a 4.83 which is faster than either Elliott or Blacklock....3-cone drill Madubuike was the quickest of any DL over 270lbs with a 7.31....Quez Watkins ran a 7.28 at 100lbs less
Enough of those pesky combine stats that aren't football related...let's look at real football stats
Blacklock 67 tackles, 5.5 sacks, 0 FF, 0 PD
Elliott 68 tackles, 5.5 sacks, 1 FF, 4 PD
Madubuike 85 tackles, 11 sacks, 4 FF, 4 PD
So how does Madubuike not fit???
Here is the problem going CB over OL in the first pic....after letting go Conklin and replacing him with Kelly our right side of the ball is weak. Now I'm not against Kelly stepping in, however I'm not comfortable with Nate Davis and Kelly together....our running game will take a hit, and we cannot afford for our number one weapon to regress. So in my opinion our biggest weakness is on the right side of the offensive line, and we better address that with the first pic. We can easily get a productive CB in the second, and then finish our top 3 pics with a DL....thats the most logical direction IMO.
There is plenty of talented players left on day 2 especially on the defensive side of the ball. Jeremy Chinn just might fall into our spot....a titans type of player. And I have him super start potential.Well you called it. I still disagree but man enough to admit when I was wrong.
I’m not a big fan of this pick but as always I hope he’s a stud. I’ll never root against a titans draft pick.
CB Kristian FultonWhat's is the consensus for pick #61?
State the position and up to two players...
Doubt he'll be there at 61 though, sucks. The CBs at that pick might be third tier CBs.CB Kristian Fulton
