SHAQ THOMPSON


Duh! I knew I forgot somebody in my haste. I'm a big Shaq fan for a while. I'd put him at 3 and move everybody else down.

Trade back a couple spots to 13-16 for an xtra mid-round pick...

1 Trae Waynes CB Michigan State

2 Paul Dawson LB TCU

3 Hroiniss Grasu C Oregon (Lelito moves back to OG)
3 Kevin White CB TCU (different body type than Waynes) Primarily Nickle, but can play outside as well

4 David Cobb RB Minnesota (or Duke Johnson RB Miami if he declares) - Ingram pink slip
OR Bryce Hager LB Baylor (if we sign RB Matthew Tucker from Eagles PS)

5 Tony Lippett WR Michigan State (I like him - but I think he drops a bit)

6 BPA

7. Shaquille Riddick DE WVU

UDFA Brian Blechen S Utah
UDFA Shaquille Mason OG Georgia Tech
UDFA Ben Beckwith OG Mississippi State
UDFA Jamarcus Nelson WR/KR/PR UAB

Trae Waynes CB Michigan State (assuming he holds up vs Baylor WRs in the Cotton Bowl


What? This game has occurred already, and I really hope we don't take Wayne's he got his shite handed to him by true freshman KD Cannon during the cotton bowl and got beat miserably all game by Devin Smith (tOSU).

I am getting pretty high on Paul Dawson tho. He steadily creeping into my favorite LB in the draft. But he'd still he a reach at 13 so I hope we can trade back into maybe the 20s, grab and extra 3rd rounder, and get him.

Sorry.... Copy pasted from a thread on another board I made months ago.

Just goes to show how ahead of the game I am. :patsselfonback:

FWIW - I first mentioned Dawson as a 2nd Rounder back in October.

Why is everyone so high on Shaq Thompson?

Because he's extremely athletic and plus in coverage - something we're desperately lacking at LBer. If he can put on some bulk he'll fit in just fine. Plus he can be used as a hybrid LB/S in given situations.

he's great in coverage and people think he can be lavonte david-esque.

that would do wonders for this defense if that is possible.
