Who's your dark horse? - Page 8

We all know Dorsey is full of surprises on draft day. Why should this year be any different?

T.J. Green, CB/S, Clemson- 6'2" with a 4.34 40. Former WR (very good ball skills). This guy screams Dorsey to me. Flashed in man coverage, but he's only played safety. Was a physical player at the safety position, so with his athletic ability he is a very intriguing potential press man convert. Green Bay made a similar move (safety to corner convert) with Randle last year and the Eagles did it with Rowe (though he had a year of experience in college at corner). He also "models his games after Eric Berry".

Daniel Jeremiah says his buddies in the scouting community tell him Green has a good shot at going at the end of the 1st to a press man team that views him as a corner.

HM: Cody Whitehair, Artie Burns (not as much of a "dark horse" now).

I like him or whitehair. Not thrilled with a guard, but late first isn't a bad place to take one.

Why do people keep mocking us a damn guard?

LDT showed he belonged and could be a top notch LG
Reid looked like he could be a solid RG
Fulton has shown ability to play any interior line spot
Pugsley showed a lot of promise

This draft has a lot of talent at spots we could use help at fairly immediately.

CB
DL (we won't have room to keep everybody we currently have on DL over the next 2 years)
S
QB

They don't currently have a lg on the roster worth a shit.

Plus with the contracts guards are getting, to get a good one for 5 cheap years is enticing

I disagree.

LDT has the tools to be a superb LG.

If they take a OL, it needs to be in the 4th or later.

Disagree.

LDT should be the guy. All through college he played on the left side, primarily as a LT. We saw what happened to Fisher when he played on his natural side. there are bigger holes on the roster like #2 receiver, and upgrades at corner, sub-set safety, plus SILB. LDT and Reid's play will be improved by the presence of Schwartz.

They've already penciled LDT in at rg, per dorsey. So..

And he's played 1 game at guard?

Yep. He definitely put up some big numbers and against superior teams. I think he's the 3rd day player who can make noise at the NFL level.

I certainly dont see any dire need for another guard

O.city · 04-26-2016, 12:38 PM

I see it this way.

If you dint think they need another guard, I don't see how you advocate for another corner. The corners on the roster are better than the guards on the roster.

I do, although I don't think it needs to be addressed in the first round.

Currently, there is no true left guard on the roster. Fulton's played left guard, right guard and center. LDT's played left guard in preseason but right guard during the season. Jah Reid has played right guard and right tackle but to my knowledge, he's not played left guard and certainly hasn't done so over the course of a season.

I wouldn't be shocked to see them take a left guard in the 2nd round, nor would I be shocked to see them take Evan Boehm in the 4th round.

If they can get a really good LG like whitehair or garnett at 28, I'll grit my teeth and be happy with it.

Fisher-whitehair-morse-ldt-Schwartz is a good young ol.
