Suh is the best DT prospect in the last decade. Him going to the bucs, and the bucs building a solid d-line in the next few years would make them an insane competitor. yeah we have Kalil, but why not be happier their job is going to be easier without Suh?!

no I agree with what u said and yes I am happy. Until Suh proves his dominance in the NFL I wont be too worried.

I doubt Suh Drops to number 3

why? STL needs a QB and Detroit has a shiny new asset to protect in Stafford and Backus is more of a guard than a tackle. Suh's positional value at 1 and 2 is relatively low because he doesn't fit a need for the Rams or the Lions who just invested a lot in Corey Williams. Okung is the obvious pick at 2 and Suh could very well fall to the Bucs at 3.

It could happen ofcourse. But most teams go for best available over needs. I dont know about Obvious but it could happen.

Either way, the Bucs will get Suh or McCoy.. they are basically 1 and 1A.. and it's hard to tell which one is better. I wouldn't be happy with the Bucs getting either of those guys.. so I have already begun to accept the inevitable.

How is it not obvious? Defensive tackle has a relatively low positional value. Quick trivia question, how many DTs have been taken in the top 3 picks in the last 12 years?

1

1 DT in 12 years went number 3. Bet you can't name him either.

Gerald Warren. He's been a great asset to the Cleveland Browns hasn't he?

Okung is the pick for the Lions. Quote me on that.

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I've been hearing all about this "winning culture" for years while watching us piss away top shelf draft position with meaningless late season wins when we're already eliminated from the playoffs but being assured this is building "winning culture" just to inevitably suck again next year. With that said, I'll always take a playoff berth. Just make the dance and you have a chance to make some noise. But spare me the "winning culture" bullshit.

      Winning culture trumps ALL.    Here’s my way to long take:  Last season this team started out breaking the sports books and being the lead pipe lock of the week. They finished by being a tough out for both SB teams.  I don’t think they’ll pick up right where they left off, but for the first time in years they’re on the legitimate upswing. Honest to God NFL talent has been infused.  Offense is already going to be good for 2-3 more 3rd down conversions (I don’t think anyone will argue that) a game over last year so I’ll go (very optimistically) 5-6 more points better than last year’s team. ADDED: A legit backup RB and a money WR who catches everything, along with 2 promising rooks. No significant losses (sorry Miles). KEYS: Can Dave bob and weave play calling if things aren’t working? Does protection continue to hold for Bryce. Did this team pick up dudes who know how to find the end zone or will the struggle of 3rd and goal continue.  Defense. If they can force even 2 (hopefully 3) more stops a game on third down (not asking a lot, hopefully more), that’s good for -4 (optimistic) points for opposing teams.  ADDED: legit run stuffers. Legit (appearing) edge guys. LOST: Clowney. Question: With legit 3-4 talent can Evero finally show what we have been VERY patiently waiting on? To me, EVERYTHING on defense hinges on Evero. Everything. Every position group was upgraded (still not good enough, but certainly improved).  Losing Brown early and Luvu… completely and utterly devastated the run defense. Luvu put up one of the best seasons at LB this team has ever seen. His under appreciation by some fans was criminal. He alone was our 3 down stop machine. Brown was pretty much it up front. Those 2 held RBs in check long enough for safety help to arrive.  Coaching: Halftime adjustments and no prevent defense. In a nutshell, that’s pretty much it. No cutesy offense to show off WRs/Bryce when it’s not working. Use your sledgehammers, Dave.  There is finally veteran leadership and legit NFL talent. It’s going in the right direction (I couldn’t have been more wrong last offseason) to build a winning culture, but teams have to learn how to win, especially the games where nothing is going right (this team has NEVER been able to do that). They will still lose more close games than they win, and that alone is where it all hinges.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      With his current level of play I'm quite content to not activate his 5th year option and let him walk away for free after year 4.
