3-4 college outside backers who can translate to 4-3 DE's

Gettleman made mention of that, when asked about the dropoff after Garrett and Thomas. I've never even considered a 3-4 backer at 8 but the PC makes me think its possible and if not there, certainly at any point in the draft.

Any names you guys think would be good fits?  I've got time to kill and would like to check out any names you guys can think of on draftbreakdown.com

Same

Same, same.

A lot of scouts don't like him though. They say he's a straight line speed guy with very little bend and won't be able to simply run around NFL tackles like he did in college. I don't know myself as I haven't looked into him.

Charles Harris and TJ Watt are two others I think fit the bill.

TJ Watt pops out even when you aren't watching him specifically. I love using draftbreakdown.com to get up to speed since, I don't watch college outside of bowl games and elite teams matched up in the regular season. Anyway I can't remember the specific prospects I was watching (obviously offensive guys going against Wisconsin's D). That kid is a freaking a player and would not be mad at all if we took him at some point after 8.

I agree. I think that Watt would be an excellent DE in a 4-3. 

Draftbreakdown is awesome. I use it every draft season.

Agreed. Its amazing. I still like having the media experts point me in the right direction and help me narrow the list of who I should look at it, but I prefer my own eyes over the scouting reports. Seems many of these guys try to cram to many players too late and make false projection's because they want to go on record on 100+ prospects.

Also want to add, another thing I found very cool for fans of draft breakdown.com 

If you click to watch the videos on youtube vs through draft breakdown.com you can copy and paste the youtube link into gif.com. From there you can create as many gifs as you want. I've got some really good gif's on Corey Davis I've made doing that and I am far from technically savvy on the internet.

    • I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner. 
    • How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.
    • I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
