Just curious, who are you talking to?

To everyone who gave me a thumbs down 2 weeks ago when I said Miles Jack would be a bust, on this thread.

Injury and falling in the draft doesn't mean he's a bust.

You say he would be a bust because he is injured and not gonna be 100% or you think he is not athletic or skilled enough?

One team in the top 10 is reported to have Leonard Floyd as their #1 pass rusher.  Some think JAX could take him at 5.

Stop worrying about votes, if you think Jack is a bust then say so who cares if some people dont agree? its your opinion.

[stan]

Not good enough. I submitted links. He hasn't played but 3 games last year. Before that he played at 227 pounds, an NFL safety playing linebacker in college. Jack is up to 240 pounds but never played at that weight. Weak at the point of attack needing much help in that area from his team mates. Quit the team one time to work out. Been removed from practice several times even after he said it wouldn't happen again. I was logged in as asteroid when I posted the links. Can't get in as asteroid now but looking for the links. This guy does not play like a Raven.

On what premise?

Wouldn't make sense for Philly and all you have to do is read a little bit on SD to see what I mean for Buckner

[Kinda_Dante]

So according to Rapoport Reggie Ragland has been pushed down some boards due to an enlarged aorta which requires yearly monitoring...

[ludy51]

What's with the LB's this year!?

They might go with Stanley then. Stanley is the better run blocker. Tunsils strength is pass blocking. 

Thats just not true. Tunsil is better in all aspects but has a track record of missing time. Stanley is stationary in run blocking, he anchors down and shields off, tunsil gets push at the first and second level and plows open holes.

[Alabama Raven]

Every report I've seen about Stanley is the knock on him is his run blocking. He's an elite pass blocker, that struggles to pave the way. Tunsil is reportedly excellent at both, which is why he was projected to be the #1 pick for months. The Chargers may still shy from Tunsil because of health concerns, but it won't be because Stanley is the better run blocker. 

[GrimCoconut]

Tunsil isn't the run blocker he's made out to be and Stanley is far better in run blocking than given credit. That said, Tunsil is nastier and plays with stronger hands than Stanley. Both are pretty equal but I do narrowly prefer Tunsil.

[sflegend89]

Tunsil or Bosa is my draft day gut feeling, how about you guys?

I'm not saying Stanley can't run block don't get me wrong. But the tape shows Stanley nearly doing the same in pass and run blocking minus the drop back. He doesn't give up ground when run blocking and successfully shields the lane off consistently, I'm just saying he doesn't get any real push for the most part

I don't think I was referring to something you said. I'm not sure but someone here said Tunsil isn't a good run blocker and that's wrong. I could be wrong and you said it, though. Unless I tag or quote someone I don't bother to remember to whom I was speaking lol

I agree with you on Bosa. My gut says Bosa or trade down.

Oh nah that was someone else lol I commented on it though telling that person that Stanley simply wasn't a better run blocker, that's why I thought you may have been responding to me

pretty much it is between Bosa and Tunsil who ever falls in there hands if both are gone trade down.

Tunsil still needs an adjustment period, the pro style ZBS has different varieties of footwork that he has to learn and commit to muscle memory, same with three point stance, different pass sets, then theres reach blocking and combo blocking etc

Peter Schrager is saying it's between Buckner and Stanley for San Diego

That would be fine with me

I'd say it's a pretty safe guess

LA would make sense with the city in general, even without the 1st round pick.  I think Philly would be an awful choice.

They should have had this year's draft in NE

Is Goodell even allowed north of NYC anymore?

picking zeke at 6 wouldn't necessarily preclude a trade a few picks later if a player we like is there and the trade offered is substantial enough.

(Not that we would select him for that reason) 

[beanfigger]

Zeke is wearing a purple suit tonight.

 

 

Just sayin'...

Oh yeah for sure.  There just seems to be a resounding confidence in Stanley going to SD.  A lot of the heavy hitter draft analysts are even expressing extreme confidence in it.

Reports are now coming out that SD won't take Stanley at 3.

That clinches it. 

According to bleachers report, Reggie Ragland has an enlarged aorta and will fall.

Yep I see some others reporting Buckner.  So in that case, they'll probably just take Paxton Lynch and call it a night lol.  It's all crap at this point.  Nothing can be believed on draft day until an actual pick is made.
