is there an Alvin Kamara or Kareem Hunt in there?

[Bearded14YourPleasure]

Both UGA RB, Freeman, Kerryon Johnson, and Penny are all RB in the 3rd round range that have a lot of potential.

If Bortles has another garbage game this weekend I expect you can put the Jags in the QB mix

I heard somewhere the Jags could go after Eli. Everyone talking Bortles but Alex Smith is in the same boat if he has a poor performance.

Jags will get cousins

Interesting...I wonder what other teams will try to get him...Cleveland? Denver?

[blueman]

[Fleet]

He can run with TE's and RBs. He can play deep. He has very good ball awareness. His ability to read a QBs eyes is top notch. Malik Hooker wasnt a great coverage guy. Hes a center fielder with insane make up speed. We have Phillips and Boston leaving. You dont see Boston covering WRs 1v1. Harrison is a much better deep safety than Boston with the ability to play close to the line and play the run. And cover TE/RB's. We have a lot of good coverage DBs. We need a single high safety who can also play the Chancellor roll. I see Chancellor, Keanu Neal and Deion Jones all in one player. Only he hits like Rodney Harrison. He takes the place of Boston and Phillips. And can probably line up at SAM on occasion. I think we are set at CB. And Verrettt might even be able to play single high FS. He also upgrades Addae. No issues putting a physical playmaker like Harrison in the center of our defensive backfield.

[Attack]

I'd take Harrison as an upgrade to Phillips and the position he was playing, if he was the best on the board for us. I've mentioned that I'm not a big fan of Phillips as a starter. Do you think that R. Jenkins could take over for Phillips next year, though? I'd prefer a D-lineman or Price in round 1, if available, or maybe an impact LB next.

Thats what im saying the game is won in ghe trenches, if we can get a guy like christian wilkins to plug along side bosa and ingram our dline will be even more stoudt, then when the second comes around you can go ot and get a guy like connor willams ot texas, orlando brown jr ot oklahoma or even mitch hyatt ot clemson, we need good quality beef right now itll keep our lbs clean on defense and rivers off his back. The 3rd round i wouldnt mind reshad penny or kerryon johnson, or even a db. The forst 2 rounds this year i want lineman 1 kffense and one defense

[Attack]

As I think about Lynn's comments the other day about the running game not being where it needs to be, I think he will be pushing for the offensive line to be upgraded this offseason, and will lobby for the first round pick to be used on O-line. There will be 2 new starters on the line next year, with Lamp, and the first round pick, and wouldn't be shocked if there are 3 new starters, with Tevi or Schofield getting a chance at RT, or maybe even Lamp getting a look there too. It seems like the staff is high on Tevi, If the first round is O-line, then I'd like a D-lineman in round 2.

Mr Ultra Versatile declared. I love this kid. Hes played DT, DE, OLB, ILB. Had probably over 50 tackles for loss over the last couple years. I kid you not he plays with the same passion as Seau. I think this kid could play ILB and go sideline to sideline.

I really like Kerryon Johnson from Auburn. Highly productive runner and receiver. Played great in games against GA and AL. Hoping that he falls to 4th round. Also, like Penny.
