2016 NFL Draft Prosects

Brandon Shell, RT, South Carolina (6'6 327 lbs, 3-year starter)

 

Pharoh Cooper, WR, South Carolina (5'11 208 lbs, 3-year starter) BEAST

Yessir, would love to have Cooper on the squad but if he continues to perform at the level he has in the past, he will be the one of the top receivers taken in the draft next year, hands down. The kid is so damned explosive with the ball in his hands. That happens, we would have to have a horrible season to have a legitimate shot at snagging him. Even though I'm a lifelong Gamecock fan, I'm a  Panther fan too, so I'm not willing to concede to that. lol

Can't help but think his production might suffer a bit with a young an inexperienced QB like Mitch throwing him the ball next season. We shall see.

 

Shell would be a great pickup as well. SOLID tackle. Have watched every snap the kid has taken since his high school days down in Goose Creek. He comes back strong from his surgery, puts it all together again this coming season and performs well at the combine, he should definitely be given a Round 2-3 grade. He'll definitely deserve it. Week in and week out for the last 3 years (35 consecutive starts) he has tusseled with some of the best D-Lineman to roll through the SEC and been very successful at it. Shell is also a very bright and humble kid (2 time SEC Academic Honor Roll member, Sociology major) who has always kept his nose to the grind and done the right things on and off of the field.

I only know about two names. Ronnie and Drango. As of right now, it's not even close to this past draft.

OTs for next year FA is gonna be stout. Hopefully Gman will go that route:

Trent Williams

Andre Smith

Nate Solder

Russell Okung

Matt Kalil

Cordy Glenn

 

Yet another example of Getts thinking past the present moment or year. All of this year's picks have a purpose in '15, but their true value will be in the years beyond. 

 

Also, no way youre going to convince me that Fisher or Donovan Smith would be a better addition than the draftees/FA class of '16.  And this is coming from a guy that was driving the Jake Fisher bandwagon back in January.

Cooper is really a fuging beast from day one.

P. Cooper is going to end up a better prospect than A. Cooper who just got drafted imo. My rating system has P. Cooper at a 1.4975 score while A. Cooper ended up with a 1.7525 score.

    • Pretty sure that a QB contract payday is all the competition any QB in this league needs, I don't think a competent backup is going to make them play any harder when the current situation wouldn't warrant the contract extension yet anyways. Your opening point in this post is also the problem, "Bryce has shown signs of improving", but that's still all he's shown, and he's only showing that because of just how bad he was to start his career. If he played like last season from the beginning and never improved one bit, then I actually think more fans would be ready to move on from him, which is what's weird.  It's like going from one of the biggest draft busts of all time into the 25th best QB in the league over 3 years means he deserves a long term $40+ million a year contract extension. Improvement shouldn't be the goal when the result of said improvement is still bottom of the league levels.
    • Yeah, but we've seen him do it. Just not often. I think that's the reason for the taller WRs. Would likely be a problem finding someone like Jimmy Horn in the mess.
    • And the Rams, Seattle, Patriots, Green Bay, Jaguars and the Bills who all made the playoffs and in case you forgot, Seattle and the Patriots played in the SB. By any measure, that's pretty brutal.
