I think it sounds about right and consistent. It would be another wasted draft pick. That guy isn't going to amount to shite in the NFL. If he didn't play for ND no one would even know who he was.

We have so many holes literally everywhere else on out defense, and out offensive tackles are atrocious

Would be terrible, absolutely terrible

I would think Manti T'eo would be better suited to play outside LB than lets say a Vilma or even a minter.

Vilma was awful when he first came back. He did improve at OLB though. I don't think he's any worse than Shanle. Even though that's not saying much. I wouldn't lose my shite if Vilma came back at OLB next year.



Also, T'eo isn't as good or as bad as everyone is saying. He won't be a "bust". He's a good MLB and will likely have a good career in the NFL. I don't think he will be an all pro or justify how high he gets picked either. IMHO

He will be a bust. I want defensive players from the SEC.

Agreed. I don't want guys like J.J. Watts, DeMarcus Ware, Haloti Ngata, Terrell Suggs, Justin Smith, Jason Piere-Paul, Ndamukong Suh, Elvis Dummerville, Nnamdi Asomugha, Chris Long, Alson Smith, Ahmad Brooks, Robert Quinn, Stevie Brown, Bobby Wagner or Like Kuechly on my team!

We need more guys like Roman Harper and Will Herring! SEC BABY

The Pro bowl this year isn't dominated by SEC players or anything...

LINK

DT Geno Atkins, Georgia
OLB Von Miller, Texas A&M
MLB Jerod Mayo, Tennessee
CB Champ Bailey, Georgia
CB Johnathan Joseph, South Carolina
SS Eric Berry, Tennessee
SS LaRon Landry, LSU
DT Justin Smith, Missouri
OLB Aldon Smith, Missouri
MLB Patrick Willis, Ole Miss
CB Tim Jennings, Georgia
CB Patrick Peterson, LSU

Granted Mizzou and A&M have only been around for a year.

Yeah, 3 of those guys never played an SEC down of football.

9 out of 34 defensive players does not mean we should draft a guy over another guy just because he's from the SEC.

And I don't see any Florida players on that list. Does that mean we have to pass on Elam because no Florida players made the Pro Bowl?

I guess you would rather Tyson Jackson over Jason Piere-Paul?

I guess you should be a GM because you knew that all of the players you mentioned were going to be All Pro at some point in their career? T'eo plays for an over rated team against weaker opponents. I'll take Jarvis Jones or Alec Ogletree over T'eo if we go linebacker.

You're the one who is saying you only want SEC defensive players.

Sounds like you're the one who wants to play GM and has a crystal ball into the future.

I agree he's overrated because he plays for notre dame, but he's a decent football player.

I'm pretty sure everyone would. Jones will likely be a top 5 pick.
