Not really.
Round 1: Wilkerson was your best pick, but he most likely will be gone by the 21st selection. He'd be a solid 3-4 five tech though. Taylor is one of those guys that underachieved throughout his entire college program, never showed anything and decided to start playing at the Senior Bowl. Considering his questionable character issues and work ethic, I think he's a huge reach in the first round. There are solid nose tackles available later including Chris Neild, Jerrell Powe, Kendrick Ellis, Sione Fua, Sealver Siliga that don't have the question marks that Powe does. Houston, while putting up 15 sacks in 2010, didn't do much else and had little impact on the game. He's a pure 4-3 dedicated pass rusher. Round 2: Aldon Smith won't be there when the Chiefs pick at 21, let alone in the second round. Hankerson potentially will be there for the Chiefs. If he's available, it's a good pick. Round 3: Kris O'Dowd is toast. He's suffered too many injuries to his legs and doesn't have any power or explosiveness. I wouldn't touch him with a ten foot pole. We drafted Schilling last year in Asamoah. To burn another third rounder on a guard would be bad. Despite the immense hard on that Detoxing has for Tawain Jones, the guy is far from a legit NFL prospect, especially to be considered in the top half of the draft. He's fast, but not elusive fast like Charles or Johnson, he's slight of frame, he runs completely upright (a la Harvey Williams) and he's played against lower level competition out of a spread offense which inflated his numbers. He's a special teams, split back three carries a game type of guy and we've already got that in McCluster. Waste of a pick for this team. Round 4: If Stanzi dropped past Round 4, I'd be okay with the pick. Round 4 and above, this team has too many holes - unless they felt that Stanzi had that certain something that would eventually lead him to be the starter on this team. Round 5: Jah Reid does not fit the zone blocking scheme that Haley runs. His butt is too high and he's a lunger versus a driver. I think he'll be a good pick for a power run team at this point in the draft and if he gets some good coaching, there's potential there. Here's him against Georgia: (And see if you notice Justin Houston in this game. I didn't.) |
