Head Coach: Kevin Sumlin

 

USATSI_6925664.jpg

 

Although I'm beginning to get concerned about Cam, I still think he's our franchise QB for now.  Sumlin would do wonders for Cam, I highly doubt we'd even consider him it'll be some damn stupid defensive coordinator but I'd love this hire.

 

Offensive Coordinator: Tim Drevno, OL Coach, 49ers

 

I really didn't know who to put for this, so don't put too much into this.  I don't know who the top position coaches are out there right now and if Sumlin is hired we'll be running a fast paced offense somewhat like the 49ers run and San Fran has a pretty good o line.  Plus Sumlin would still be the main boss of the offense, so we would just need to find a guy who's a good playcaller and whatnot.

 

Defensive Coordinator: Brendan Daly, DL Coach, Vikings

 

I've heard this as a hot name to get a DC job soon.  Apparently he shows a lot of passion and he's learned from a good defensive mind in Minnesota.  The Vikings defense hasn't been that great this year but he'd have much more talent here.  But again I really don't have many good ideas for new coordinators.

 

1st Round: Marqise Lee, WR, USC

I went back-and-forth.  Our biggest need lies on the OL, but our WRs are pretty damn bad too.  Two dropped TD's today.  Smith is regressing and LaFell is not a number two.  The OL class seems pretty deep, so I think we have to roll the dice and try to get Cam his future #1 guy and he would be great to pair with Tedd Ginn.  I do not think Lafell will be back next year,  I know USC WRs haven't panned out well but all those were playing with great QBs, Lee has been dominant even with mediocre QB play at USC.  I think he's special and the best WR in this class.

 

Round 2: James Hurst, OT, UNC

 

 

One reason I decided to wait to get an OL in round 2 is because this is a really deep OT class.  There's a really good chance a guy like Hurst, David Yankey, Antonio Richardson, etc will fall to us in the second round.  Hurst immediately becomes the starting RT and if he shows potential there he could be the future LT in a  perfect world.  So with these first two picks we get two starters at our two biggest positions of need.

 

Round 3: Kyle Fuller, CB, VT

 

Kyle+Fuller+Allstate+Sugar+Bowl+Michigan

 

Our secondary is really holding our defense back from really being dominant.  Lester has shown some promise and I would like to keep Mikell around next year as well as Mitchell.  At S we aren't bad but I don't think we have a single starting caliber CB on our roster right now.  Fuller has had a good career at VT and looked great against Alabama covering Amari Toomer in the opener this year.  Another day 1 starter.

 

Round 4: Cassius Marsh, DE, UCLA

 

David+Piland+Cassius+Marsh+Houston+v+UCL

 

Calling it now: Hardy will not be back next season.  Y'all love him, and it's easy to.  He loves the game and plays with a swag but he wants a big deal and he's been worthless in 3 out of the 4 games this year.  He's not worth big money especially with what we're paying CJ.  I say pair Marsh with Frank Alexander at the opposing side of CJ and they'll produce for like 10+ sacks, about like Hardy and much cheaper.  ALexander is in the doghouse for God knows what reason, but he showed he has a lot of potential last year.  Under a new coach he'll be a solid player.

 

Round 5: John Martinez, OG, USC

 

 

 

Another player out of LA lol.  Back to the OL here, Chris Scott has been nothing special and Kugbila God knows is looking like a disaster.  You can normally find good G's in these rounds so maybe Getts will find one here.

 

Round 6: Ryan Grant, WR, Tulane

 

dbc0d66b9cb8a762d1e324b2c6d3fe84-img1.jp

 

Another WR.  I bet LaFell is gone next year and Armanti too.  Smith is quickly on the decline as well, he does not have much gas left.  Hixon is worthless.  I'd like to see an overhaul at WR next year, Lee, S. Smith, Ginn and Grant would be cool.

 

Round 7: BPA

Giants pick: we'll have to see where it ends up but BPA, maybe another CB/S

I think you'd have to switch your first two picks. I don't see Hurst being available in the second round (even though he sucks) and Lee should be available in the second round after his injury.

Lee is already listed as questionable for next week. I think he will be picked somewhere between 10-15 there's no way he will come close to touching round 2.

You mean the injury that might not even cost him a game?

      Interesting: Former CAR RB Mike Davis Harshly Criticizes McCaffrey, Calls Him "Selfish as Poo"

      By CRA · Posted

      Mike Davis is like yeah, why would these coaches expect me to watch film on our next opponent if I'm playing good.  Yeah, I really don't pay attention to a lot of stuff around me if I'm doing good.   also Mike Davis, how dare they give all the reps to CMC.  from just listening to that interview, I think Mike Davis likely was often in Mike Davis' way and he can't comprehend that aspect.  Even his story of why he hated people.....was weird.  He hated Steve Spurrier because Spurrier was like hey Mike, Marcus Lattimore left...and we need you to step up into that role/void and be more for us.   And Mike Davis was like, can you believe that motha trucka!! Nah Steve.  Just give me the ball and leave me alone (paraphrasing it all obviously but that was the gist).

      Scourton - Collapsed Lung, Week-to-Week

      Unless he's 1,000%, just sit him an extra week at this point to let him get his legs back under him. I want to see him out there as much as the next guy, but this was a serious thing and I'd rather wait an extra week than put him out one day too early and risk something going wrong, play the long game for once.

      God, these posts are really starting to piss me off If we're relying on Moore, Idzik, and Canales to carry that weight, then we're royally screwing over our young WR room.  It's not that those guys can't help with some of it, but these young promising WRs are going to miss out on a lot of learning that can only be provided by the vets on the team.   You do realize that coaches spend ZERO time in the locker room, right?   They are only in there just before games and at halftime, but the rest of the week, they have their own locker room, they only spend time with the players on the field and in the film room.  There is soooooo much time that you're leaving unaccounted for where players are working together to get better. Players are constantly talking about their game and how they can improve while they're in the locker room.  If you think career long special teamer David Moore is going to be able to carry that water in the locker room, then you're sorely and woefully mistaken. Even beyond that, if a coach pulls a player aside to give advice between series, that still means there are 4-5 other WRs who aren't getting individual advice, where that's normally a time a vet like Thielen is going over with them what he's seeing out there and how they can do X, Y, or Z to do A, B, or C better on the next drive.
