Underrated mobility IMO.
6 Taylor Mays DB
Analysis: LB size and CB speed.
Overrated.
10 Trent Williams OT
Analysis: Quality all-around bookend, moves from RT to LT this season.
I've watched him a couple times and I worry about his inability to get off the line quickly. Maybe that'll
change this year but last year, it was something that stood out to me.
2nd what you said Alen.
it's also nice to see someone else (Scoutsinc) is very high on Sapp. LOL.
I have a bad gut feeling about McCoy right now.
Best is way too high on Kiper's board IMO. He's a change of pace 3rd down back to me.
Dunlap has yet to wow me so far.
Is ScoutsInc only using Seniors for this list?

That's what I was thinking, except Bradford is a JR(RS).
2017 Dream Draft (3/17 – NFLDraftScout ~ Rankings used)

I wouldn't trust Ricky Sapp as far as I could chuck him.
And Taylor Mays is Roy Williams part 2.
I am the sweat not the swagger.

Where the F is Eric Berry on Scouts Inc. list?

With the 26th pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins select, Tim Tebow, Quarterback, University of Florida Gators.
Tim Tebow, "First of all I would like to thank the good Lord upstairs for providing me with everything I have in life. My football skills are because of the man upstairs who has blessed me all my life........"
:yes: That's what is gonna happen!!!! We can use a high character, 6'4" 245 pound QB who refuses to lose and who even Chuck Norris is afraid of.

If we're taking a QB who is around 6'4" and over 235 lbs, it better be Tim Hiller.

It's a seniors list and he's a junior. Same reason why Morgan Burnett isn't on there.

I find it very interesting that Pete Carroll has so much trust in Taylor Mays as the centerfielder in the Cover 1 when he's not shy about over-pursuing and decision making. I know Mays can run and has solid range but he's shown in the past he's undisciplined at times.

I haven't gotten a chance to see him play yet this season ... has mechanics improved any? Or is he still Bernie Kosar-ish?
If we pick a Gator in the 1st round, I'd rather it be a certain inside LB :up:

Youre probably expecting some oposition from me, but despite being a Clemson fan, i'd have to agree with you.....about Mays. :tongue2: LOL
Just kidding. Sapp is playing like late 1st round talent but until I see him healthy and consistent for an entire season, I don't look at him till the late 2nd-3rd at the earliest He's a great individual and an awesome teammate, but like the little leprechaun said (Lou Holtz)- I don't have love at first sight when considering a top pick. LOL
So far through 2 games, he's playing like a top DE. He's athletic, explosive, and fluid enough to develop into a very good Hybrid....if he has the instincts and awareness for it. IMO of course. ;)

No please no.
I know Greg Hardy has a bum wheel, but he seems awkward when he runs, almost uncoordinated and clumsy'ish...like his cleats were dipped in wet cement before the game. For his sake, I hope it's just his leg.
B/C, you know the "13 year old bully" in movies who gets surprised with a punch to the beak.... and then starts bawling, and turns and runs away with his arms and legs flailing around like wet noodles....that's what Hardy reminded me of tonight. LOL. Someone please tell me it's just his injury. ;)

His mechanics are virtually identical to last year.

By virtually identical you mean bad.

Yup. And as much as I like Tebow, I think he would be horrible under center. While he is very mobile, he has trouble feeling the blitz at times.

It is an injury. He's basically played on one leg because of an ankle sprain. He looked alright last night, I felt. When the game started, it was clear that the injury was hampering him as he looked to struggle running laterally but as the game went on, he got more comfortable and was in the pocket a few times. He sacked Garcia once to end a drive and force a punt. It seems like there's very few things that can prevent him from producing. He played with a stress fracture last year I believe and still racked up 8.5 sacks in 9 games in which he had a limited snap count.
Also, it's said that Greg Hardy has put on weight this year as he's up to 275. I thought it was noticeable as he looked to have thicker hips.

Awful.

:sidelol:
Yeah...I guess you could say that. LOL
I am amazed at the extent of his accuracy with the floaters he throws. It can't be easy accounting for all the normal issues related to getting the ball to your receiver PLUS having to factor in the trajectory of a duck, too. :D

:praying: that we don't go QB round one this upcoming draft
"A man's suffering is similar to the behavior of gas. If a certain quantity of gas is pumped into an empty chamber, it will fill the chamber completely and evenly, no matter how big the chamber. Thus, suffering completely fills the human soul and conscious mind, no matter whether the suffering great or little. Therefore, the "size" of human suffering is absolutely relative." - Viktor Frankl

:praying: that we don't go QB round one this upcoming draft
I'm curious on everyone elses thoughts.... I don't see us going into next season with 3 QB's (Henne, Pat, and 2010 rookie) who have zero to very little real time experience. That's a disaster waiting to happen.
If we don't re-sign Penny to back up Henne the starter (being optimistic), then I think we'll sign a vet in FA who can serve as an experienced backup should Henne go down. Our guys are too young/inexperienced, so there has to be a veteran in the mix. So I'd be shocked to see us take a QB earlier than the 4th b/c I doubt we want to carry 4 QB's.... unless we spend a flyer on one in 5-7 and hope that he has a good enough preseason to show some damn good potential.

I'll take Mays over any of our current safeties. We need someone who plays on instincts, and takes risks to make big plays. All great safeties take risks. I wouldn't throw Mays under the bus because he is willing to do that. With good coaching (which i think we have), he can be great.
Does this not look good?
GISH, that's a nice graphic but I hope it doesn't come true next April.

So Mays doesn't have good coaching at USC now? :dunno: I didn't know Berry is more productive bc he has better coaching. :dunno: :tongue2:
Wait....if taking more risks=making bigger plays... and Mays takes more risks as you say....so if he's taking more risks then why isn't he making more plays?:headscratch: just givin ya a hard time, Gish. LOL
