You really like Tebow more as a quarterback than McCoy and Snead?
Kind of interesting to see Brandon Graham so high on your overall rankings. What do you like about him so much?
Good stuff overall though. Love to see this type of stuff.

I absolutely hate Colt McCoy as a prospect. Dude has a weak arm, is not that athletic, makes no reads whatsoever, and doesn’t really scream leadership to me. Jevan Snead, if he is dumb enough to come out this year, has done nothing but throw picks, make horrific reads, and force the ball. He better pick it up next year.
While Tebow has that Byron Leftwich wind-up, he has the arm-strength to correct it. I think that he will turn some heads at the combine after he fixes his throwing technique.
Brandon Graham is a beast. He has shown an uncanny ability to stop the run and rush the passer. He looks like Elvis Dumervile with a better anchor and more strength. But, his lack of height is what might get him stuck as a LB at the next level. Not that that is a bad thing, ask Elvis Dumervile.

Graham isnt that similar to Dumerville. Graham plays end in a 3 man front. Dummerville (in college) played linebacker and defensive end in a 4 man front

It's Dumervil guys
Or DOOM if you prefer. ;-)

Ricky Stanzi? really?
I dont see why people think of Graham as a linebacker
by TheRealSlimShady on Nov 2, 2009 7:59 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Yeah
Hard ot see him up there with the way he played last weekend, granted that is the only time I have ever watched him closely.

Nice Job Overall
I think Demarius Thomas and Anthony Dixon should be higher in their respective positions, but other than that, I don’t see anything I disagree with all that much.

This is a really good list. Here’s a couple things I think you should consider changing:
Leigh Tiffin – I don’t think he’s an NFL caliber kicker. Between last year and this season, he’s only 16/20 inside 40 yards and you’ve gotta be a little more automatic on those. And I know he has a big leg, as evidenced by his multiple 50 yard FGs, but he’s 14/36 for his career on kicks in the 40-49 yard range.
Why isn’t Sean Witherspoon listed as a 4-3 SLB or the ILB list? Maybe I’ve just been cheering for a cover 2 team (the Bills) for too long, but Witherspoon looks like he’s got scheme and position versatility to me.
I don’t get the Ricky Stanzi thing either.
I signed up for Second Life about a year ago. Back then my life was so great that I literally wanted a second one. In my Second Life I was also a paper salesman and I was also named Dwight. Absolutely everything was the same. Except I could fly. - Dwight Schrute

Weatherspoon
could be a SLB for a cover 2 team, but that is the only reason he should be a SLB. I really like the guy, but he is not physical enough to handle the strongside on a non-cover 2 4-3 defense. Also, he would be a total misfit as a ILB in the 3-4. I just see him as a very good WLB on a pressure 4-3.
I’ve looked at a few tapes of Stanzi, and he has a pretty solid arm, good athleticism, comes out of a pro-style offense, and makes several reads. Most importantly, his bounce-back after the 4 interception 3rd quarter on Saturday shows real resolve that GMs like in a QB.
by birds'n'raiders on Nov 2, 2009 10:07 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah
But the fact that he threw 5 picks in the first place might put them off a little bit…
by Brendan Scolari on Nov 3, 2009 3:22 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Tony Pike
I think might be a spot or two too low and Graham might be too high at defensive end, but I think he’ll be a beast as a 3-4 rush linebacker.

Pretty good
My gut tells me that Locker is going to get graded higher than Clausen and will get drafted higher. He’s got better physical ability than Clausen.
I disagree with your OT rankings. Okung is correct, IMO, but I’d rank Bulaga and Williams ahead of Charles Brown.
I think you’re referencing Mike Johnson from Alabama at guard. Good ranking though. He gets overlooked to a degree.
I rank Marvin Austin much higher, ahead of Arthur Jones.
I have some issues with your DE rankings, and think Mays is better than Thomas.
But good overall.

Marvin Austin???
the guy has Carlos Dunlap/Calais Campbell syndrome. He’s a waste (and a future Raider…)
If anything Austin should be lower…like 13th.
Arthur Jones is a monster. He’s not as athletic as Suh or McCoy, but as an actual football player, someone who knows how to play DT…Jones might even be better than McCoy.

Seriously Ricky Stanzi?
Jevan Snead, if he is dumb enough to come out this year, has done nothing but throw picks
Jevan Snead 13 INT’s, Ricky Stanzi 13 INT’s. I can see why people don’t like Snead but to say he throws picks too much yet love Stanzi doesn’t make sense both have 13 INT’s this year.

That's rather high to be on Swingin' Dick Stanzi
even with the 5 pick day Saturday his awful awful decision making seems to be improving (3 of the picks were deep balls to open WRs that the strong wind made hang, 1 was due to the intended target getting screened off by a ref, the last was totally on Ricky), but he’s got a long way to go before I even trust him as a college QB.

but Stanzi is packing MAJOR heat….Tony Pike can’t say the same

heat as in interceptions?

by tj.hendricks on Nov 3, 2009 8:35 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
You can throw the ball as hard as you want but
more than likely you’ll throw it too hard and then it becomes an INT. Tony Pike is better than Stanzi.
