Blokestradamus Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Mike Williams and Isaiah Ford might have something to say about this They might. Howard's production isn't quite there so it's not a fight I'm willing to die for but, on sheer talent alone, I think he's right up there with anyone in the FBS. If he finds his stride with Trubisky, watch out. Quote

The "Patriots type" short white guy thing is real and he's the prototype. Insane return man as well. If you want the skill set but don't want to pay for the brand name; Trent Taylor from LA Tech. Averaging 141 yards per game, 8 TD's. Listed as 5'8", 178, feisty little bastard. Quote

Blokestradamus Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Bummer for Hollins. Great time to be a Bug Howard fanboy. @McMurphyESPN UNC senior WR Mack Hollins had season-ending surgery on right clavicle Sunday Quote

Player comp for Texas A&M's Myles Garrett: http://on.nfl.com/sE2SjM @IanKenyonNFL I still have no idea what to think about Christian McCaffrey's draft value. If he's Reggie Bush, is he a first round pick? @ChrisBurke_SI Chris Burke Retweeted Ian Kenyon I love McCaffrey but I'm less convinced than ever that he goes Round 1. Quote

Player comp for Texas A&M's Myles Garrett: http://on.nfl.com/sE2SjM I thought the perfect comparison was Jason Pierre-Paul, though Garrett is a far more polished prospect coming out of school than JPP was IMO Quote
Blokestradamus Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 I thought the perfect comparison was Jason Pierre-Paul, though Garrett is a far more polished prospect coming out of school than JPP was IMO He's as well-rounded an edge prospect as I've watched. Granted, that's not going back far but he's scary good. I've seen a couple of people throw out Julius Peppers as a comparison. Quote
dulles Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 This is stupid. Does anyone have last April's mock draft for 2016? How close was that prediction? I bet 75% of these 1st rounders picked for 2106... weren't even on the mock draft after the draft last spring. Let alone team needs.... Who thought Mario would be gone? Or that Tyrod would be the starter going into this year? Then there is the whole injury thing and Juniors coming out..... Hell, I can believe I just wasted my time typing this. :bag: Yep, stupid, but last I checked, stupid draws a lot of clicks and eyeballs. We're not talking about an article in a peer-reviewed medical journal. This is sports journalism. There's a reason why it is not esteemed the same as other forms of journalism. Quote

I've seen a couple of people throw out Julius Peppers as a comparison. There feels like high praise. Peppers the prospect was even better than Peppers the player and that is saying something. He was such a freak athlete. Garrett is really good and has a big week ahead of him. Edited October 19, 2016 by Kirby Jackson Quote

Garrett is really good and has a big week ahead of him. I never saw Peppers in college but the athletic comparison seems like a really sound one. Garrett is a touch shorter/lighter but from a weight density standpoint, it'll level out. The great thing about a freak like that, they can last for a long time with the right mindset. Peppers had a 10.5 sack season at 35. Myles only turns 21 just before the New Year, he's got the potential to be at a high level for a dozen years or more. Quote
Kirby Jackson Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Hey Blokes have you looked at the Safeties yet? I wanted to get your thoughts on Jamal Adams and Malik Hooker. I think that those are potential round 1 targets if they don't have a WR that they like there. How do those 2 specifically (or anyone else that you may be high on) stack up to Neal and Joseph? I was (and am) a big fan of Karl Joseph. Quote
