He's not a OLB now is he?

Almost, but Curry actually fights off blocks instead of running around them.

Just forget Crazy man he just wants to take whoever the supposed best defensive player is period. Inspite if this you know being a shitty year for defense at the top of the draft but that doesn't count.

We don't need a QB we got Tyler Thigpen!

I dont get too hung up in your evaluations. They're pretty self serrving.

I dont understand what big benefit a bench QB has to offer us. I mean, you're not thinking someone with no experience is gonna come out of college and wow us all on an NFL level do you?

Of course you do.

If I had to guess, I'd say you're the one who likes to argue. Since that is what the thread is designed to do. Argue a point saying the same shit you've been saying for the last week 500 times over. Like it's somehow going to make more sense now.

Give it up man. It's really not that ****ing important in the regular scope of life. Take a break. There's more to life than convincing/insulting everyone into your way of felating Sanchez.

You're starting to come off like a fricken kook.

If Sanchez gets picked at #3 there is no way he sits for long. Thats just simple $$$$ economics more than aything.

And now we're back to the thing of people not wanting a QB unless he's a perfect prospect.

That's a little over the top. Simmer down.

He's a top prospect at the single biggest need on defense though. Probably wont be a bench warmer his 1st season.

If we're switching to a 3-4 defense, wouldn't a huge NT like Raji make more sense than Curry? I thought NTs were a lot harder to come by than LBs, and everything I've heard seems like Raji is a guy that could climb the draft boards.

Who said Curry was the perfect prospect...

Its just a mindset in the fanbase... Some want defense and 9-7, others want a QB and a chance to win a superbowl...

You could literally go sign a guy for half the price.

Who?

Again who do you pick if both QB's are gone? I know you've said CB. OK. How does that have more value to this team?

Curry had 15 tackles behind the line. 3 TD's from int's. over 100 tackles. He's a solid tackler and a big hitter. He is stout against the run. So they didnt rush the passer with him. We cant get everything with one pick or even one draft. Lewis doesnt rush the passer either and he does pretty OK.

And So what makes you think a QB like Sanchez or Stafford would be a Benchwarmer....

Talent and $$$$ trumphs a 7th round waver wire pickup...

Those two are top prospects on a team without a true QB on the roster...

The CB position is more valuable than the LB position....

Statistically-speaking, DJ had 10.5 sacks (more than curry), 9 INTs (more than curry), 69 tackles for loss (24 more than curry), 9 passes defended (less than curry) and 458 tackles (120+ more than curry).

Size-wise they're almost identical (Curry's reported 5 pounds heavier). DJ ran in the low 4.5s, Curry's expected to run in the low 4.6s.

One played at Texas. One played at Wake Forest.

Look at all of those stats and tell me why Curry's supposedly going top-3 and DJ went 15. Although to be fair, virtually nobody expected DJ to fall that far.

It has to do with the QB, some people act as if the QB isn't perfect they don't want him and want something else instead.

Well Curry plays over the strong side which lowers his stats and he looks better on film no running around blockers but the fact that he plays over the strong side should hurt his value because a strong side backer is like a trash backer.
