Me and Chad rallied against Jones.

I rallied against both. These character issue guys rarely work out when there's too many red flags/red flags are too serious.

I didn't want Jones because of his spinal condition & the poor numbers he put up at Georgia's Pro day. The evidence was there prior to the draft on Jones but many overlooked it. Many wanted to overlook Gregory's issues too.

What's even funnier are the Barnett to Jones comparisons as of late. Outside of the 40 times, they are nowhere near being similar. I remember watching Jones play & thinking to myself, he is stiff as a board. He has no flexibility on top of not being a very good athlete. Barnett on the otherhand has the second best bend around the corner in this draft behind Myles Garrett.

Yeah no way. As much as I don't like this guy if he falls to 32 you have to take him.

We can always trade him if he is a locker room issue.

Jones was more about the overwhelming mumber of posters who wanted to draft him. There was a similar obsession with Dion Jordan too.

He's got character concerns w who he hangs out with, medical issues, a diluted test and he's a bit on stupid side

I would love to have him but Aldon Smith makes me worry about talented questionable character guys.

I'd rather have Cunningham to be honest though. Foster is a good player but he seems like a frick up.


This is a loser mentality


Foster is a much, much better player who can actually tackle.

I'm afraid he's a system player, meaning LB's at his school rarely, if ever, have to shed blockers. Yes, he's a missile and hits like there's no tomorrow, but he's free to sprint to the ball there. Also, he drops his head way too much, which means he's a concussion waiting to happen, or worse.

Never doubted Foster's ability.

But he's an idiot.. he's Rolando McClain 2.0 waiting to happen.

Jaylon Smith and Myles Jack were knee injury stories. Foster seems like he's missing some brain cells.

Beckwith is going to be a better pro than Foster. I say that with and without my P&G glasses on.

i think they're probably different positions in the NFL

i just see foster as your 00s-era WLB destroyer missile more than a MLB

beckwith is a MLB all the way and may need to be ILB in a 3-4

if foster is there at 32 you have to gamble on him
