Also, not sure why Chubb wouldn't have an immediate Freeney-like impact. He's a slightly different kind of player so may not expect the speed-demon outside rushes, but he is still the kind of guy who can come in and have an impact right away. |

My question is if he is THAT much better than Arden Key whom will very probably be available at the top of the 2nd round? Or is Chubb that much better than Davenport where we could trade back, pick up more 2nd or 3rd round picks and then pick Davenport in the middle of the 1st round? If people were saying that he is Von Miller-like, then you take him at #3 no questions asked. But folks are saying that he is complete and good and NFL ready but not transcendent. I would like more picks for potentially good NFL players rather than less picks for potentially great NFL players. Lets get all 22 spots up to NFL average / good before worrying about NFL great.

Sherck all you need to know about Arden Key is that his production came when he was 235 lbs. He ran around blockers. That was 2016. Since then he ballooned up to 280 while taking time off from football, came back around 260, and did nothing his final year of college ball. I wouldn't touch him until the 4th and that's if he had a reasonable explanation for the off field stuff. Seems like an athlete that doesn't really want to play football.
I also think the "Chubb is solid but not great" stuff came from one early comment weeks ago when someone said "He's not Miles Garrett but he's the best edge rusher in this class". Since then I've read many glowing reports on him highlighting his athleticism, technique, strength, football knowledge, and motor. I've watched games where he has been an unblockable force of nature. I don't think he's going to run a 4.5 40 but the Combine should put to rest any questions about how athletic he is. He is not just the tallest midget, he is a defense-changing prospect and we are lucky to be in position to get him (assuming he doesn't go before we pick).

Chubb. If for some weird reason he's taken at 1 or 2, trade back to later in the top 10 and pick Smith or Nelson.

The 2nd best pass rusher in this draft is Harold Landry.
What the drop-off is between Chubb and Landry is the key question. I don't know the answer to that question. But I do know that you have to watch Landry's junior season to get the truer answer. |

O-Line Dream Scenario:
#1 Re-sign Jack Mewhort on a 1-year "prove it" deal with big incentives. #2 Win the Andrew Norwell contest by backing up a HUGE truck load of money. #3 Sign OT Cameron Flemming from the Cheats to a low-end starter contract. #4 Draft one of the following OGs in the 2nd or 3rd rounds of the draft: Isaiah Wynn (Georgia, 2nd round), Will Hernandez (UTEP, 2nd round), Billy Price (OSU, 3rd round), Will Clapp (LSU 3rd round) We could get greedy and say sign Nate Solder instead of Flemming but I think Solder will be way overpaid and I think Ballard only geeks on one huge O-Line contract. If so, I would want Norwell over Solder. That gives us a depth chart of: OT = Anthony Castonzo, Cameron Flemming, Denzelle Good, Joe Haeg OG = Andrew Norwell, Jack Mewhort, Rookie, Le'Raven Clark OC = Ryan Kelly, Mike Person So, the whole rest of the draft can be used for defense and/or offensive speciality positions and we only brought in 2 outside veteran free agents. My guess is that we will end up with a whole lot less than ideal but it is what it is. However, that is what I would love to see happen for the offensive line. Walk Worthy,
