Fofsadness Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 How many of you would be alright with us drafting Griffin with like our fourth round pick? I think he fits our style of defense perfectly with his speed and rushing ability. And we need to add another OLB who can rush the passer and just creat havoc for the opposing QB. He's a surprisingly good tackler considering his limitations. The guy has one hand and would still be an upgrade over a few of our rush backers.

He played at at incredibly high level with one hand, and I think a 4th round pick is well worth the risk for a possible starting LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aztec Hammer Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I would love it. He’s a good player. Supremely athletic and clearly must have a special level of determination and commitment given what he has achieved with only one hand. I think he has the potential to be gold for a team, both on and off field. And just a real fan favourite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETSGOBROWNIES Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 In the 4th lol? I’d be thrilled. Kid’s a monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonanza23 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 In the fourth? Easily. I’d think about taking him with our last pick in the second. His instincts are unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSURacerDT55 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Without thinking twice about hit, he would be a fan favorite, he could be a special teams stud and have a role in blitz packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosko1616 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Thrilled he’d be a terrific WLB What’s the rule if he wanted to where like a prosthetic arm. He’ll have the money and resources available to invest in maybe. Permanent solution. Something high tech that opens closes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FGK Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Yeah, the 4th is an easy yes. But he will be gone long before then (he doesn't get that draft invite if they don't think he's at least going day 2. The better question is would you take him with our last 2nd round pick? I would strongly consider it. I mean, think about the culture shift that guy brings. You think other guys aren't going to see the way he works his butt off and be challenged to match his level? He's not a need at all, which is the only thing that makes me hesitate. But I think he's athletic enough to function in that hybrid LB, SS, slot defender role, so that's slightly less of a concern.

Yes, easily again. Other than a hand what does he lack? He’s plenty big enough, has elite speed, instincts and tape. He’s going to play a long time in the league imo.

NudeTayne Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 An inch of height means the end for the quarterback with the TWO highest rated seasons in college football history while our number one need is passer, but a linebacker with no hand for tackling..."Eh, he's a great story, though, so let's spend pick 64 when his position isn't even a need. He's a fighter and will succeed." #funtayne *goes back to talking about Jeff Garcia's hot wife.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fofsadness Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 I wouldn’t take him in the 2nd, but I’d consider trading back up into the third to get him. Or trading out of 64 and picking up multiple picks like a third and a fourth, pick him in the 3rd and take a OT in the fourth like Jamarco Jones from The Ohio State university.

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 This fixation with “need”...smh... You sign free agents to fill needs, you draft for talent. What we need are good players, regardless of position. If Griffin is the highest rated player on the board, take him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I love the story but don't see how he could possibly be BPA at 64. #funtayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or should I say, what separates them from him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
