My yearly Draft a Mountaineer Thread

[Squirrel]

The only good thing to come out of West Virginia is I-77.

And me! :p

[Ohio]

Devine - NO, too small, and he will NOT go before the 5th round, mark it down

Neild- NO, he's a 3-4 nose tackle, he's not a 3 technique tackle

Sands- NO, he is slow at reacting but it wasn't as exposed because the Big East had horrific offenses this year.

Sanders- NO, he is way to small and fumbles to many returns.

[TyHillPanthers]

Being a diehard Tech fan, I still hate WVU and never want to see a mountaineer in a Panthers uniform.

Agreed.

[Delhommey]

Sorry, but after last year the phrase "draft a Mountaineer" makes me physically ill.

Now I understand your nickname, Squirrel. You probably had a choice between coal, the number one export, Jerry West, your most popular athlete, or the WV favorite food.

I think I worked too hard for a bad joke. I am interested in Devine, especially if we lose DW.

If we lose Steve Smith, I like Jerrel Jernigan, WR Troy. Check him out.

And me! :p

Squirrel your Scouting report states you have some character questions and you seem to surround yourself with some questionable characters.

Squirrel your Scouting report states you have some character questions and you seem to surround yourself with some questionable characters.

But i also have a nasty attitude and play with a mean streak.

[Carolina Husker]

I'd prefer to draft players who can read.

[Mother Grabber]

From Rotoworld's list of players who's stock rose at the combine:

7. Appalachian State FS Mark LeGree

No player in this draft class can touch LeGree's 22 career interceptions, but as an FCS small-schooler there were plenty of questions about his athleticism. LeGree didn't burn up the track with his 4.56 forty, but it was the second fastest among all safeties in Indianapolis. Also weighing in at a solid 5'11 1/2" and 210 pounds, LeGree is on the radar as a possible third-round pick.

More LeGree measurables: 9'8" broad jump, 4.09 short shuttle, 6.90 three cone

Oh wait, wrong Mountaineers...sorry.

Maybe just maybe this year we will draft a true Mountaineer.

First up Noel Devine. Would be a good 3rd back and KR/PR

Second is Chris Neild Would help the Dline.

Lastly Robert Sands F/S great size and quickness my top choice to be drafted by the Panthers.

honorable mention to Jock Sanders good speed but no room for him as a WR/RB.

Here I thought you were saying we needed to draft Mark Legree lol..
