    Thoughts on this guy. From the videos I've seen he looks pretty impressive. I've never been so indecisive when it comes to our draft, I just can't decide who would be best for us. I went from Prince to Paea to Smith, LOL. He really looks like a natural pass rusher, a bit like Derrick Thomas he just seems to get skinny when he needs to.

    I initially thought this said Alex Smith.

    Really strong hands, good placement. Explosive off the line, but not very strong. Liability in run support. He's good, but at our pick, I'd rather have Robert Quinn.

    I think we're ok at DE, especially if we resign Babin. DE is deep in this draft and maybe we can pick up someone like Wyatt from Wisconsin in rounds 2 or 3. I think we really need to go DT, LB, or S with #8, unless we fall in love with a QB.

    He's a smaller guy, but can play inside sometimes. I tip my hat to him for being able to do that. If his hand placement were to improve, he could be something in the NFL. But at barely 260, and not much strength, right now he's going to get man handled by Tackles.

    Same problem with Ayers-Houston-Miller. A 3-4 OLB. Look at Dantay Moch for a guy who can play for us from game one.
