re: Draft Picks Review

Bunkley barely weighs over 300 pounds. If he is our primary NT then Jenkins wasn't too hot of a pick.

I said many times what Ryan likes to do at the nose(and ends) and even went into depth his situations in Oakland and Cleveland. I know some people disagree and think that he uses a 2-gap nose(and I'm not saying he never goes 2-gap; it's not his primary scheme though).

Jenkins is a great pick because he will(hopefully) be a dominant run stuffing nose. We have been pretty weak in run defense for a few years now(since Payton's been here we haven't be higher than 12th in yards against, and ypc against hasn't been higher than 16th but was often lower). We've tried to address it before but to no avail.

I'll just leave it at let's see who starts and plays what snaps once the season begins. I often have a very different view on some things than most posters(not needing another OLB, NT situation, Vaccaro being a good pick, Ryan being a great choice for DC(though on those last two people started coming around), etc.) and I know it's not the popular opinion. But it's what I think and without a good argument to sway me it'll stay that way.
