With the 9th overall pick of the 2009 NFL Draft....

[pack4to84]

well I might have spoken to soon. He is heating up now. Looks like the coach opened up the play book to start the second half. Better play calling, you could see him gain confidence. 6-7 for 92 yards and a TD last drive.

I agree with Partial for once. If a TE can block you one on one most of the game you are J.Reynolds all over again. He just got over matched in the NFL.

Am I the only one that thinks we should be looking to draft the TE that blocked him?

Nope, I made a thread in support of drafting Garrett Graham!

Im looking forward to watching the boys on USC defense... rooting Penn State because of JoPA, but would love to see Taylor Mays come our way...

[pack4to84]

After watching the Rose Bowl I want Maualuga or Mays. Maualuga is all over the field. Reminds me of Junior Seau. Mays had a big hit. You have to see replay of it. He knocked 2 players out. Mays is a FS that is a big hitter. WR look for him every time they enter his area. Saw one WR look for him before even try to make the catch and went out of bounds before Mays could get to him. He didn't even attempt to catch it. Alligator arms!

He led with his helmet on that one but wow... knocked out two players. The name that kept popping into my head is/was Sean Taylor... he plays fuckin mean.

[b bulldog]

aGREE, I saw Taylor play a lot at the U and the two are close. I like both SC players and both would be a welcomed addition to our D. All the DE's I've seen so far have been nobody I'd come close to drafting in the top 10 but Orakpo is probably the best of that group imo and he'll be playing against a good T when they play the Bucks.

BOTH were very impressive and I'd love to see either

Speaking of, that Cincy Punter has a rocket leg and the announcers said he's hands down the best punter in college football. Called him a weapon.

He'd be a dam nice edition as well

The crop of DE's is really weak. Need to cover the DL in UFA. i'D LEAN TOWARDS rEY AND MOVE bARNETT OUT OF THE MIDDLE. I think a healthy Collins and Bigby are fine.

Partial you had a lot of good points until you're very last line, you should just go back and delete that. Everette Brown will be a first round draft choice, and at the very least a mid 2nd, I just hope not with the Packers.

He'll be a top 15 pick. I just don't want anything to do with him on the Packers first day. I'd take him for his burst on the second day in a heart beat.

Agreed, on another note, Raji looks like a real monster against a decent Vandy O-line. Pick #9 in the second round would be a steal for him. He really collapses the pocket and applies a lot of pressure to the interior, something the Packer's sorely miss without Corey Williams. I believe our lack of an inside pass-rush is just a big of a need as our lack of DE pass rush.

I like Raji a lot, but most see him as a late 1st round pick, around #25 or so. If those forecasts are close to accurate, TT won't reach that far to fill a need. DE, LB or OT are more likely picks at #9.

Jamal Reynolds scouting report
6'3 267

Positives: Superior playing speed and quickness...Plays hard and competes well. Is like a shark who smells blood when he thinks he can get a sack.

Negatives: Lacks size and bulk strength. Will have problems holding the point of attack on the next level. Has trouble shedding if the blocker gets his hands on him quickly. May be more of a pass-rush specialist than an every-down player, unless he becomes a 3-4 outside rush ’backer. But not many clubs use the 3-4 anymore.

Summary: One of the best, if not the best, pure pass rushers in the draft, but he is more one-dimensional than teams would like.

I went to a Packers TC practice and had JR walk by not two feet away from me with his shoulder pads and jersey off. NO WAY was he 267 lb. He was wasp-waisted, had skinny legs and no butt. I seriously doubt he weighed 250 after three weeks of training camp.

Sorry. Old news, I know. But this team deserves a little luck out of its first round pick for once, and JR--and the resulting string of moves meant to fix the problem of his being a bust--was more devastating to this team than the Incredible Bulk ever was.

So Swede ... what you're saying is that we drafted a 250 lbs white girl? :P

Well, he was really pretty, what with those taut muscles gleaming under that coffee-colored skin.

He was definitely no white girl, though, but if one were going to drop the soap for somebody in prison one could do worse.

After today's bowl games, did anybody see a college player they added to their wish list on draft day?

I think I agree with you here. We need to find a FA DL (Chris Canty maybe?). Rey in the middle. Barnett to OLB. I'd like to see competition at S, but you can draft a good safety in the 2nd or 3rd round. Plus, there are tons of good available FA safeties.
