Per PFT basically saying we're not looking for a project, we need someone who can start day 1. So no Poe. I think Luchely is out too.

The nice thing about always going BPA is that when you do need to pick up a stud DE with your 1st pick at least it wont be as predictable.

Cox would only start day 1 because our DTs suck and not so much becuase he's ready, no?

[La Pantera]

Cosell said Cox was on Dareius' talent level and a better athlete. If that's the case he could deff. start day one!

[ClarkCam]

Cox or Coples....

[Dash Global]

yep. coples or cox

[Ruff]

yep. coples or cox

That's the way I read into that, as well.

yeeah, we'll see, d-lineman then, but I still think it makes more sense to shore up that other side and see what McClain looks like this year next to Edwards. Neblett in the rotation along with some other hopefuls could ok if we pick up one of the plentiful DT's that will still be available in the 2nd round. DE, to me, is the biggest impact position on the defense AND ours looks thin.

A punter will start immediately

Is Stephon Gilmore a project?

[ncmonzta]

It will be Coples

If that's the case..give me Fletcher Cox all day. Probably our best option at 9.

Lol at believing what anybody says before the draft.
