    I've been reading about this kid and can say I'm really intrigued by him. Any of you draft guru's have an opinion about him? Do you think the Dolphins would go for someone like him and if so will he still be around come #14?

    Question is what do you do with Jenkins? Shaq seems to be a lot better at OLB than at RB, so I'm guessing he replaces Jenkins? BPA is a good strategy, yes, but this one might not add as much value as Kendricks because of the position/need.

    Some experts are saying he'd also make a good safety. It just seems to me that he's a rare talent.

    I would like to see him at Safety, but apparently he doesn't want to play there. Hell of a FOOTBALL player though.

    Dion Jordan is a hell of a football player without a position as well.

    I do not consider Jenkins limited to just Will. He could play Sam too, if Shaq were drafted to play Will.

    So apparently McShay has us taking OLB Shaq Thompson at #16 (in a trade down?) and converting him to a Safety in his last mock.

    Shaq entered the draft as an OLB, but played safety, linebacker and running back for the Huskies.

    I think FS is more of a need than CB, but not sure about this move. Probably makes perfect sense to Coyles though... ;-)

    Had a buddy send me this:
