I like Fournette and Obi picks 8 and 40

Agree with you too. this was my scenario because I think Fournette will be gone.  Heck Thomas could be gone before 8 too with his combine performance. Obi might have jumped into the 1st round as well with his combine.

Guess this is kinda reality/pipe-dream as well.

Some scouts saying Thomas will go above Allen now.

Star is 6'2"

In addition, Thomas measured in at 6'3", not a shade under 6'3".

We don't need another DT.  We need a DE that's worth a damn.  So, you're comparing a DT's height to a guy they will want to place at DE more often then not? WOW.

Right now I want Fournette , Barnett, Adams, or Hooker with the 1st and either Dede Westbrook , Budda Baker, Obi Melionfu, or Demarcus Walker with pick 40. I wouldn't be made with double dipping at DE and get both Barnett and Walker in rounds 1 and 2,  and load up on offense for the rest of the draft. 

I'm extremely high on Westbrook especially if we let Ginn go we need a good deep threat with speed and I'm dubious we will pick Ross with #8 with his injury history, unless we trade down in the 1st I could see us getting Ross or OJ Howard with the 1st, picking up an extra second.

You do realize he can play both positions, right? Check his snap count at DT and DE. Solomon played 44% of his snaps at DE in 2016. 

Scouts are projecting he'll play at DE in the NFL, not DT. Yet, he can slide in play at DT at any time just as Short can play DE at any time too.

Great, that's what this team needs another situational pass rusher.  Hurray!

Please Fournette drop to us.

Pick #8 Leonard Fournette

Pick #40 Chris Godwin

Pick #70 Josh Jones

Pick #98 Jordan WIllis

Pick #102 Chidobe Awuzie

I'd be okay with this.

However I don't follow the draft or college coverage very closely. Not sure if these guys will be available or not when I chose them. .

we aren't picking 1.

 

 

True, but Thomas could happen.  Now if he had said Garrett that is a different story.  I was just curious who you thought would be better.  Its easy to second guess other people.

You are correct since we are picking 8th its hard to just name one person but you could throw out three names and have a good chance of one being there.  Something like Fournette, Adams, and Howard in that order.  There is always the chance all three might be gone but nobody is going to hold you to it.

Nice to see someone else mention Say Jones, not seen him mentioned by anyone else, currently hoping we can pick him up with our 2nd 3rd rounder

Oh look, you went retard again.

Thomas is top prospect and will now be drafted before Allen. 

Who cares if he's Drafted before or after Allen?  I want neither.  I want Fournette.  

And if Thomas sucks, we know you won't admit you were wrong.  We already know how you roll.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
