Not another insane draft Best Player thread! Yes, yes it is...

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

Since there are draft "best player" in the first and throwing up a Linbacker as a legit choice I figured to offer an actual value "best player" in the mid rounds. (3rd to 6th).

Still have a need for a KR/PR with the departure of Ginn.  Also with two aging, high priced RBs the next gen needs to get here and Barner looked every bit the rookie that he was.  Both of these guys project to HB/WR hybrid guys and offer dynamic playmaking ability that an Avant or Cothery do not offer. 

So seriously..if the Huddle is considering a lber in the first as a sane option..then I propose HB in the midrounds...actually more of a need IMO. Seriously. 

HB/WR/KR/PR : De'anthony Thomas, Orgeon Duck's engine for most the last two seasons and plays like he runs 4.2 easily.  He ran a disappointing 4.5 at the combine just like Barner did the year before. However his Pro Day reassured his play when times at 4.35/4.39

HB/WR/KR/PR : DRI ARCHER, fastest man alive at the 2014 combine 4.29 and has all the wiggles you need on the field.

The fact that Hbs are devalued so much I would pounce on these two playmakers that would never escape the second round in another era.

With G-man, who knows?

I'd have no problem with it in the 4th or later. The biggest reason I hated to see Ginn leave was his return potential/ability. Our offense needs a dynamic returner to give it a shot in the arm, perhaps more than ever this year.

I want us to draft a workhorse not a small shifty guy.

[SOJA]

bet that De'anthony Thomas gets drafted by the Eagles earlier than people have him pegged

 

Chip Kelley likes his guys, and would obviously use Thomas correctly 

[CelticCat]

Why would you draft Thomas after we just drafted Barner?

[EMSMedic79]

I wouldn't mind De'Anthony Thomas past the forth. The guy was dynamite for Oregon and could pull both RB and WR duty, especially in the slot.

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

Why would you draft Thomas after we just drafted Barner?

Uh bc he is potentially better and Barner is not untouchable.

[Ruff]

Maybe if we keep drafting Oregon RBs, one of them is bound to work out.

[Riverboat Ron]

Because LaMichael James and Kenyon Barner have blown up the NFL with their speed obviously!

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

Why draft anyone then?

D'anthony Thomas resembles Leshon McCoy..and he was more explosive then those guys anyway.

The X factor working against the Panthers is Mike Shula and not being able to use these guys in space

[Rules&Regulations]

I wouldn't mind drafting a certain type of running back. Barner will never be an every down back no matter how much he improves, can't block in the NFL. We will need a RB who can throw a block, but I think we can wait for a different draft to get him.

Another Oregon back that won't get on the field
