Day Two
4 - OG Matt Lentz
5 - C David Castillo
6 - OT E.J. Whitley
7 - ILB Leon Williams
-----
QB Carr/ FA: Kitna
(This is a difficult one here, if we keep Carr we should pick up Kitna from FA to have him mentor Carr on mechanics and decision making and if Carr doesnt perform with a better O-Line and better talent around him we put in Kitna.. he did a good job when he was in Cinny with good talent around him and no defense (when he was QB their defense wasnt very good). If we dont extend Carr' contract then we pick him up and get a solid veteran with lots of NFL experience that could come in and produce for us..)
HB Humes/Morency
(Humes is a monster back.. he absolutely punishes defenders when he has the ball in his hands and Morency is our small scat back that could switch in and out with Humes and be OUR "Thunder and Lighthing" combo.. I still like Morency and his ability to make defenders miss and I like Humes punishing style could be what we need and they both are reliable recivers out the backfield)
FB Wells
(He's versatile enough to play the FB position could be an HB type of back like Chris Cooley)
TE Tony Scheffler/Bennie Joppru
(If Bennie doesnt get his stuff togetherm then we have Scheffler, he's a great reciever, we just need to work on his pass blocking and we'll be good to go there and if they both are able to play then we have a dual threat at TE.. LBs and Ss will have trouble planning for both.)
WR Johnson/Stovall/Mathis
(This would be great we would have a Awesome mix of recivers.. Mathis the small burner that we could put anywhere on the field and have him burn CBs and Ss. Stovall the BIGGGG possesion reciever and awesome red zone threat. And Johnson the comb of both a BIG Burner... if we can get then on the field at the same time it could be a nightmare for defenses)
OT McNeil/ FA: Jeff Backus/ Wade / Whitley
(We pick up Backus from FA, he's a great Pass Blocker, and pretty good run blocker.. McNeil could take over on of the spots or learn from Wade or Backus. Withley is a great Pass Blocker could put him in for pass downs or something.. for fresh legs.. eventually it will be McNeil and Backus at the Tackle spots in the future)
OG Pitts/ Spitz/ Weigert / McKinney
(Weigert is actually a good G, and Pitts has come into his own lately.. and with spitz in the picture, they will be force to step up and eventually spitz will take one of their spots after learning for most of the season or a full season. From what i'm hearing McKinney should be a guard so we could throw him in the mix somewhere)
C Hodgdon/ Castillo
(Hodgdon and Castillo would battle it out for this spot.. Castillo has played some of the top competition (ACC) and Hodgdon is a decent C for us.. could be an interesting battle in the off-season)
---------
DE Wimbley/Peek/ Babin
(Some people say that Peek and Babin are undersized but as I demonstrated in a post long ago they are around in the same size as the top 10 DEs in the NFL (Ranked like 6th and 7th I believe) and also its nothing for them to add on 5 or 8lbs of muscle to help them out. And Kamerion Wimbley is a Great Pass Rusher, great size and could put Peek or Babin on the bench or we could switch em out to get fresh legs in there for passing down and all that..)
DT Johnson/Smith/Walker/Payne
(Everybody here could go to any team and start IMO. Enough said here..)
OLB Hawk/Greenwood/Orr
(We all know about what Hawk can do, Greenwood moves back to his natural OLB position, they both can use speed to get all over the field and make plasy for the defense and Shantee Orr has come on great racking up sacks.. despite the fact that we have to play the run so much (Being down at the end of the game).. this could be a good 1-2-3 punch at Outside LB)
ILB Wong/Leon Williams
(We need to keep Wong in the middle we NEED some veteran leadership there on the D.. you see what happen when we got rid of sharper.. Leon Williams WILL be a steal in this draft..)
CB Robinson/Allen/ Buchannon
(Robinson has been GREAT.. the Heart of our Defense..Allen is a BIG Strong CB with pretty good speed.. Could be the other corner that we need to complement D-Rob. and Buchannon well he has completely flopped this year and maybe with a new D-Coordiantor, he could come along a little better and be the CB that we all "Believe" that he could be)
S Blue/Earl/Brown
(Greg Blue is a monster, he can Hit like a LB, runs like a DB and is all over the field and thats something that we need.. Earl is really coming along as of late.. he's picked off passes.. put recievers on the backs with bone shaking hits and Brown could come in provide fresh legs and provide depth..)
