Yeah it's gonna be great. I'm just glad there are a few guys around like you, Texas, who want to talk draft/X's & O's instead of "power struggle"

I don't think anyone is going to disagree with thatI still think that a LT is far harder to find than a OG
Hater = Realist
I would take Coleman over Harnish too
At NT I prefer Josh Chapman from Alabama
Hater = Realist
The combines are getting close guys, and I am still waiting for a couple more pre-combine mocks. I promise not to hold you to these after the combine. Honestly guys I have often picked up on a few guys to watch in the combines that I never thought much about.
AML
Some of the guys I am most excited to watch will be
Ronnell Lewis
Bobby Massie
John Massaquoi
Zach Brown
Orson Charles
Aminiasi Silatolu
James-Michael Johnson
I think all of these guys have good chances to move up after the combine.
Of course I'm also looking forward to watching all of the SU favorites like Poe, Worthy, Zeitler, Adams, etc...
And of course I can't wait to watch all of the quarterbacks. Been spending a lot of time watching Brandon Weeden lately and wow have I been impressed. Starting to think he's round one for sure. Just wish he was younger.
OK Tex - lets fire off a quick one.
NOTE: 49ers steal Mike Wallace and in return we are left with 1.30
1.24 Peter Konz OC / OG Wisconsin Jnr
1.30 Dontari Poe NT Memphis
2. Bobby Massie OT Miss
3. Nigel Bradham ILB Florida State
4 LaMichael James RB Oregon
5. Jordan White WR Western Michigan
6 Eddie Whitely FS Virginia Tech
7.a Austin Davis QB Sth Miss
7b. Markus Kuhn DE 6'4 303 NC State

I like the draft very much Aussie, but I always like you drafts. I think Massie could be this years Carpenter. He may move up so quickly that someone will take him a little higher that anyone though he would go. I really like the Jordan White, and the Eddie Whitely pick. These are two to watch in the combines. They could even move up farther that you have them. Thanks buddy.

The next Dexter Mccluster?

Not a fan of White. Only watched him once but wasn't that impressive. Does have a pretty big build and soft hands but isn't a vertical threat and doesn't make many miss in the open field. From my amatuer point of view, looks to have a lot of technical problems that are going to be tough to break.
Comparable to another MAC kid with big numbers, Freddie Barnes rather than an Antonio Brown type.
Respectfully disagree. I saw a bit of Jordan White and to me he looks like a footballer who just produces on the field.
Physical guyHe became a starter in 2009 as a sophomore (7 starts), finishing with 53 receptions for 681 yards (12.8) and 4 touchdowns. White started every game in 2010 as a junior, recording 94 receptions for 1,378 yards (14.7) and 10 scores, earning First Team All-MAC honors. He had his best season in 2011 and set several school receiving records (13 starts), finishing with an FBS-best 140 catches for 1,911 yards (13.7) and 17 touchdowns, earning All-America and First Team All-MAC honors. White finished his career as the school?s all-time career leader in catches (306) and receiving yards (4,187).
White is an interesting story because of his impressive production the past three seasons after battling back from two separate ACL injuries to both knees ? admirable performance returning from injuries with determination and he?s not a guy I would bet against. He is a physical presence with good size and build, working well over the middle and catching the ball in contested situations. White?s speed, burst and overall movement ability leave a lot to be desired and his medical evaluations will be crucial to his NFL future, but his toughness and collegiate production cannot be ignored. He projects as a No. 4 receiver at the next level if he can show he?s not damaged goods and could prove to be a Danario Alexander-type player.

Great hands
Not scared to go across the middle
Great production
For a 5th round pick - I would take the risk. He is not a skinny piece of crap like Freddy Mitchell and not every receiver needs to be a deep threat. Sometimes you just need a hard core, tough as nails aint scared of jack shit receiver to do the dirty work. No point having a team full of run as fast as you can WR's unless you want to be the raiders of the 90's.

Those things cbs talked about are the positiives I mentioned. But beyond that, there isn't much there. He does a nice job of finding soft spots in zone coverages but doesn't get a lot of seperation out of his breaks. He won't beat man coverage. He doesn't offer much after the catch and isn't a threat to stretch the field. The numbers are impressive, yes, but it was a spread offense. The numbers are inflated by Western Michigan's offense.
Remember I am talking about a Round 5 pick. He is going to have flaws. Not everyone on the roster can be first round talent.
For the purpose of my mock it was Jeff Fuller in the 4th or Jordan White in the 5th. Brown, Sanders and Cotch are a very good WR corp.
Let Hines walk and replace him with a virtual clone in Jordan White. (I thought LaMichael James is better in the 4th than Fuller)
here are some more flaws for my 5th round pick
Would I take a chance on that in the 5th ... Shit Yeah
