Re: 2013 NFL Scouting Combine Thread
There is NO WAY Barrett Jones lasts until our pick at the bottom of the second round. As for need...any team needs a versatile guy like this. Take him and move on, I say!

Re: 2013 NFL Scouting Combine Thread
Considering a guy who was a good NFL scout just last year gives him a mid 3rd round grade, saying there is no way he lasts is way overboard.
Could he be picked before...sure, it's the NFL draft. But Jones is not grading out as a first round or even early second round pick from everything I've read. There is a strong chance he is still there at 62.

RT @RDSCT: thoughts on Barrett Jones? 1st or 2nd round talent?> No and no…I thought he was a mid-round guy on tape. 3rd at earliest for me.Although Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.

Re: 2013 NFL Scouting Combine Thread
I remember Ko before the draft and hoped the Ravens were considering him to replace Ben Grubbs, but then totally forgot about him after Cordy Glenns combine performance. So when the Ravens drafted him, I was pretty chuffed after forgetting about him. I had him in one of my mock drafts, if only I kept him on there with Pierce and Gino as 3rd and 4th round picks that I got right, I would have been 100 % if belicheat didn't steal Hightower away from us. Tbf, i thought Upshaw was going to go way higher than he did, I had him going to the Jets actually.

Flacco looked better pre draft than Glennon has looked. Glennon looked flat out bad at times during the senior bowl game, and that was with Flacco coming from an FCS school.

Look, it's very early in the process to determine anything, and, despite what that scout said about Barrett, I expect him to be a fairly high draft pick. Once the combine and pre-draft workouts are complete he should ascend. I say take him at 32 and call it a night.

Joe's Senior Bowl performance (an obviously very small sample) wasn't exactly the stuff of legends
Then in the Senior Bowl in January, Flacco completed just 2 of 7 for 22 yards and an interception—but scouts appreciated that he remained poised. "One of the best lessons I was taught when I started coaching was, don't ever ding a guy at the Senior Bowl," says Jaguars quarterbacks coach Mike Shula. "He can only help himself for coming."
OT: Leach, is it bad that in my head I read everything you say in a British Accent :p
