HoyaSkins28 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 He's by far the best player going into this draft. Tampa should take him before us. They desperately need a DT and he is a franchise guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LD0506 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I heard the same thing about Calvin Johnson, Glenn Dorsey, Branden Albert, Amobi okoye, Jason Smith/Michael Oher, etc. etc. And although some of them are great picks...none are "the type of player that only comes around every 20 years or so." People say that about certain players in every draft but none of them turn out to be the next this or that player. And the ones that turn out to be really good are the ones that didn't have that hype (Adrian Peterson with his "injures," etc. Man, SO true! Why do we keep buying into the hype again and again even though we KNOW they were wrong last time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leopard11 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Its a no brainer to take him if available, which i dont see him getting past #2. Just the fact that a DT is a finalist for a heisman is almost as good as a win for him. Plus his name means "House of Spears" that is draft worthy in itself! House of Spears! Wow! We need to do anything in our power to get him here.. trade up, combo trade to trade up, offer a private jet whatever the lions, bucs, rams or whoever want. Danny we need the #1 pick! We need this titan! We should even go back to the old helmets with the spear on it! Muwahahaha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmySmith Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 some of you are forgetting that a rookie OL is just as risky as a rookie QB. all of you guys that wanna draft 4 rookie lineman and have them start, thats beyond stupid.The common reasoning here seems to be that the Skins just draft another Samuels and Jansen and then they are off to the SB. Like these guys grow on trees. You know people, there is a very real possibility that there are no O-Lineman in the draft as good as the ones the Skins have right now. That is why drafting for need is a dangerous game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why drafting for need is a dangerous game. the draft is scary in general, its pretty much pick your poison. do you: pick the best available talent even if hes at a position that youre stacked at in hopes that he works out? pick the best avaiable talent that you need and hope he works out? busting on BPA is much worse IMO than busting on a player of need. imagine if we drafted Suh and he was a bust? we'd be horribly sunk and the need for offense would be even greater. that would be devastating. at least taking a QB or OL is something we need, and if it busts, oh well.

bird_1972 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 The name I really like is Arthur Jones from Syracuse. He'll be a stud of a 1 tech and he's a team leader. In short, he's the perfect replacement for Cornelius Griffin. Where is he projected to land in the upcoming draft? Could we pick him up in the later rounds?

boobiemiles Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Thank god there are some people that actually watch football. Good post. This kid is unbelievable. Big, strong, and nonestop motor. He tossed McCoy like a rag doll. 4 sacnks against triple teams, and those were linemen from Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boobiemiles Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Where is he projected to land in the upcoming draft? Could we pick him up in the later rounds? R you crazy. This guy maybe the 1st pick off the board if he has a good combine. All he needs to do is press 225, 35 times, and run a 4.8 40, and it's a wrap.

Going Commando Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 We could probably get Shaun Rogers for dirt cheap this offseason. He'd give us as much as Suh would since we've already got Haynesworth here to play the 3 technique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't put up either of those numbers at the combine but that doesn't make him any less of a prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am high on Suh as a player, but not necessarily as a Redskin. I still don't think they should pass on him.Also, very quietly, I think the true need has presented itself. RB. I'd say that the reality of Portis never playing for the Skins again is very possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenegadeTK Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 dude is a beast. but bottom line, our d-line is the least of our problems. if he is still on the board at our pick, we should trade down cause someone out there will want him BAD, and we can get legit value for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suh looks like a future all pro he's a better prospect that Dorsey, Raji, sedrick ellis and okoye and they all got picked up in the top 10.

Perky72 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 House of Spears! Wow! We need to do anything in our power to get him here.. trade up, combo trade to trade up, offer a private jet whatever the lions, bucs, rams or whoever want. Danny we need the #1 pick! We need this titan! We should even go back to the old helmets with the spear on it! Muwahahaha! Trade up for a DT? With this team? I don't know what people expect here, our secondary is not good enough, and we don't get enough defensive TDs to be a low-scoring defensive team like the old Ravens/Steelers. Our offense isn't good enough at holding onto the ball, or extending TOP to allow our D to win this way. The way this team is we need a defense good enough to win games with a good offense of ours winning them. We have that defense right now. We need a good offense much more than we need a slightly better defense. And I certainly don't trust management to properly build the team so that we'd be a franchise type with Suh/Big Al there for 5+ years. If we keep drafting superfluous DTs, WRs, TEs, Suh will languish here as we continue to lose due to our offense. Acquire some OTs somehow elsewhere, or draft Suh and devote the rest of the draft to O-line and maybe a QB prospect, and it changes. But with this team I half-expect our draft to go (if Suh was available) by round: 1--DT 2--WR 4--S 5--K 7--DE And similar moves in FA/trades. More head-scratching, more trying to spin off-season acquisitions in a positive light even when they don't make much sense. I guess I just don't trust our front office enough at filling needs through non-draft to warrant picking BPA instead of need, particularly at the moment on the defensive side of the ball. If we had competent management, great--BPA all the way, because other needs will be addressed. But we don't have competent management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braxford Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 It would be great if the Skins could pick him, he is as close to can't miss as possible. Nickname already easily there, King Kong. The Skins could have the all nickname DLine. Rak, Big Al, King Kong, Would have to come up one for Carter but 3 out of four ain't bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrellsMyHero28 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 As long as we don't draft a QB I'll be happy. I don't like anyone in this class particularly and we have more pressing needs along the OL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koolblue13 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I would much rather trade back 3 or 4 spots, pick up one more pick and draft Ro McClain in the first and Arthur Jones in the second. If we get a third for that, draft someone like McCourtny (CB). That should solidify our defense for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we'll get Clausen, and I'm not sold on anyone else. Why waste a pick on a rookie when we can shore up the OL and try to pick a more impressive QB next year?
