Lets Solidify Our Defense Today

I really want Devon Still. In my amateur youtube analysis, he's got very good technique (handwork, footwork, tackling), good size, good strength, elite burst off the snap, good competitive nature. Some have knocked his motor as hot and cold, obviously watching youtube isn't going to give you a good feel for that but the same thing is said about 85% of DT prospects and is often an ill-founded concern. I know in the youtube I've watched on him he seems to be giving 110%. If he can just stay healthy, he'll be a stud pass rusher DT.

Man, watching that Still video has got me hyped about the thought of taking him. Brockers was my pick for #9, but Still was in the discussion for a very long time. I'm calling it, Still's the pick tomorrow. If he is, it wipes away all my apprehension about taking a non-pass rusher LB with #9. Top 10 defense, here we come.

Still is a beast no doubt about it.

I love all 4 of those prospects.

My first choice is Jenkins (top 10 talent). Him and Gamble make for a really nice CB combo.

Then its a tie between Curry and Still

We're pick 8 this round...not 9, so cross your fingers and hope one of these guys fall. I see the Colts targetting Fleener with their second round pick since they released Clark.

Look at the other teams there.

33. Rams - they got their DT in Brockers in the first round so rule out Still. They probably need a WR more than anything so you could see a Stephen Hill or Reuben Randle.

34. Indy - said it...Fleener for some tools for Luck

35. Ravens - Sorry to say it...but Janoris Jenkins may go here, but it's a team that's had Oline issues as well. Who knows.

36. Denver - If Indy doesn't get him...Denver will. Fleener for Peyton, but probably defense otherwise. Maybe Still.

37. Cleveland - Big surprise with the Weeden pick, so expect them to get a WR here. Randle, Hill, Quick maybe, or maybe even a Sanu or Jeffrey.

38. Jacksonville - They got their big time WR. Now where do they go. It's a wild card and I wouldn't be surprised if you see another trade into this position to get one of the prospects left from above.

39. Rams again - No clue...fill in the gaps

40. Panthers - Left over DT or CB on the big board. Since there are Jenkins, Hayward, and Johnson...I could see us just biding time and getting whoever's there. Would love to see Still fall to us or Jenkins.

Fleener to Indy...nice. That's probably where he's going. The Rams made out like bandits...traded down twice and can still grab a number of top prospects. I expect Devon Still will be available, Jenkins will likely go to the Ravens. I would be satisfied if they grabbed an offensive tackle.

    • They are 1 and 9 against the  Bucs in the past 10 games. the Panthers go as young goes.  QB1 ‘s are suppose to dictate and overcome  and elevate Everything the QB does affects every part of the team and Bryce is uneven. Canales and Bryce have  an uneven relationship too  as for Evero, the only thing that might save him is the injury to Baker’s left shoulder and oline injuries. I don’t even know how he is out there   I really feel their season ended last Sunday Canales’ division record isn’t great   Getting owned by the Saints and Bucs isn’t a good look 
    • Frankly surprised by the amount of people that want to hang Evero. This was a defense that was almost universally considered the bottom of the barrel before this season started. We’ve managed to stat our way to the middle of the pack whatever that means. Those critical of the zone schemes, what do you want? When even JC is getting burnt one on one by Olave you have little choice. There definitely have been moments where the zone blitz stuff has bit us. That said, are the third string linebackers (and nick Scott) covering poo anyway? This unit had only conceded 10 points going into the fourth quarter despite a litany of bullshit penalties on both sides. Them over performing is the biggest reason we are still in playoff contention.
