Thread: Narrow the pick to three.

Re: Narrow the pick to three.
It doesn't matter if either of the running backs actually make an impact. The draft is all about perception. I believe the perception will be that both Gurley and Gordon are special running backs which is why they'll be gone. The furthest I see Gurley falling is the Lions at #23 but I would not be shocked if the Falcons picked him at #8.
Gordon is a little different. I know there are some coaches who are just drooling over what they could do with him. Can they convince their GM to take him? I believe that's the case in Arizona. The key is perception though and not what they will do because no one really knows.
In terms of Strong vs. Peters I would lean more towards Strong but I think #26 is a little high for either of them in a better draft class. I only see 22 players of 1st round quality in this draft. Ray is one of them but Johnson, Strong and Peters are not. I'm really hoping Ray or one of the others falls to us at #26

Re: Narrow the pick to three.
After dragging and sifting through the WR talent, and assuming neither of the top two RBs are there. I'm hoping the pick is Shane Ray. Its a value/need decision and I can't come up with much else. I like Randy Gregory, but too much boom/bust for me. He is small for the league and has too far to get where we would want him to play. He could be an extremely intriguing SS somewhere (IMO only), but I doubt the cover skills are there. It's Ray for me. Then somehow snag Maxx Williams. Once again we will have to gamble on WR help later. It's just not there unless OZ wants to trade the draft. Not happening.
