If im taking a WR, im taking Patterson. Austin is a really, really nice complimentary player when you already have playmakers on the outside.

I'm not arguing for Austin...but I'd take him before I'd take a lineman (offense or defense). I did put up a mock draft where I took Patterson 1.1...but I like Austin's swagger. And he just lights up defenses.

Not at 1.1. The guy is nearly the same size as McCluster, so there's concerns about his durability, especially over a 16+ game season.

I think he's incredibly talented, but we do not need his services enough for a #1 overall.

Austin at 1.1 would be borderline fireable.
I don't care how much you like him, if Cordarelle Patterson is on the board when you're looking for a WR, that's who you take. Now if he's sitting at 10 and Patterson went 9, it's justifiable because you're getting the best available playmaker on the board at 9 and that's not the worst decision to make. But there's no way he should go ahead of Patterson; that kid's a Julio Jones, AJ Green level talent.

Fans will never have enough pre-draft information to make an informed decision about Patterson, since the dude carries a shit ton of potential baggage.
He absolutely should be in the discussion for the Chiefs, though. Hope they interview the kid extensively. |

I like Tavon . He would have fit nicely at #34

Tavon Austin apparently had a monster pro-day.
He's the best playmaker in this draft class, and I don't think it's close. I hear what y'all are saying about 1.1, but if we manage to swap with Buffalo, I think we take a good hard look at him there. I think he's that good. 4 years at WVU and never missed a practice? Ran a 4.3 40? Not injury prone. He's Percy Harvin/DeSean Jackson without the baggage. |

If you redo '09, we take Raji or Harvin at #3. While I don't think Austin is the latter, it's not as ridiculous a notion as it first sounds.
It's a hell of a lot more sensible than a RT. |
