Stewart + 9Th Pick = Wo Blackmon

Recommended Posts

As much as we need pressure on the frontline, we will never be this close in drafting a prospect like WO Blackmon.

I thought of WO Floyd from ND but I don't want another Dwayne Jarrett situation (DUI) on this team.

Steve Smith needs a #1 WO across from him to ease his way to retirement in the next few years.

It would be IDEAL to have the pressure taken off of SUPER CAM & SMITHY because the WHOLE LEAGUE WILL BE AFTER THEM NEXT SEASON.

As much as I love "DOUBLE TROUBLE," we need to think ahead a develop a supporting cast around our QUARTERBACK. :D

We are fortunate that Tolbert wanted to play for us @ a discount and a full backfield. Tolbert = Stewart in this offense and Coach Chud can totally push the DWilliams & Tolbert button in that manner.

By the way, SUPERCAM likes to run too!!! We need to give him opinion in front of him to hit down the field.

Hence, trade Stewart and get WO Blackmon today!

Every draft has a Blackmon, or a Claiborne, or a Keuchly, or a Richardson, etc. Everyone gets so enamored with these guys it's a trip to me. Blackmon isn't a generational talent.

I fixed the error in the name, but my point was clear.

We need to play "offense" in the draft and not "hope" a premier prospect would drop to us at #9.

If we stay at # 9, we are going to take either Poe or Coples, and they are not going to advance our frontline pressure as we think.

The only DT that would advance our team would be Brockers from LSU, but we should trade down to pick him up in the twenties.

Problem is, we have been discussing every scenario about trading/not trading Stewart since the season ended. Not much better to have too many RB's, trade one just to have too many WR's. Trading up is not our best option, trading down is much better, for example with the Eagles getting at least a third. Then trade Stewart to Denver for their second

You go from having a first and second to one first, two seconds and a third. Much better at adding depth to a young team.

I am not endorsing the scenario....but it is better to have several good WRs than several good RBs.

If you have 1 good WR and one good RB....and get the choice to add one more good player.....it should be a WR. They all can play the majority of snaps together making a defense defend them all. 2 good RBs is depth outside of odd play

No ones questioning that two WRs see the field more than two RBs, especially in our offense. But our WRs aren't that bad to begin with. If Blackmon fell, cool, then you'd have to consider him. But there is no value in trading Stewart up 5 slots to select someone who could fall to 9. Also, you can find WRs in later rounds.
