What do you guys [Nick] think about picking up Jarvis Moss in the 1st round, maybe after a trade down, and having him play sityuationally for a year while he adds some weight. This guy has freak athletic ability and could spark the Rams pass rush while playing behind a FA like Chris Kelsay or James Hall.
The Guy is
6'7"
252lbs.
4.68 40 yard dash.
At 6'7" 252 he sounds better suited at MLB. :)
That would be a monster if he adds 10-20 lbs.
He is too much of a speed rusher and you say we can play him in situations but we need someone who can play most of the game at right end. we can't wait for him to get bigger while everyone else gets older
Isn't a 4.68 40-time a little mediocre, especially for a top 15 pick? What is the "freak athletic ability" that you are referring to , Country?Quote:

You don't know if he is blowing smoke, but it sounds as if he wants a pass rusher first.
1. The starting RE spot will be maned by a free agent like James Hall, any team that relys ona rookie to start is asking for trouble.
2. 4.68 is upper echelon for DEs in the 40 yard dash. Mario Williams ran a 4.75.
ithink (nick) is correct on this one , i believe that someone like moss could be taken, and linehan said himself that victor is more of a 1st and 2nd down guy, that does better stopping the run, so a 3rd down pass russer could be the target. and moss could be the quick end when little goes. this could be a total possability, and a trade down to do it would only add value and picks to the team. this would be totally o.k . if this scenario played out on draft day.
if we draft moss, we could use him on special teams as well. He blocked a couple of FG's against South Carolina I believe. oh and btw I was the first one on the clan to be on the moss bandwagon :) i had to get that in.
