I think I'd take Ruben Foster and hope for Charles Harris or Tim Williams at #32.

Which one would you take?

Tim Williams will probably be there for our 2nd round pick.

Depends on who else is there. I wouldn't take either at that spot. Foster showed his arse at the combine and Barnett is a late mid 1st. Trade back if possible.

If we take Reuben Foster, he will end up being a moron who flames out in three years. If we don't take Reuben Foster, he will dominate the NFL for a decade. Such is life.

these are the 2 guys im going back and forth on in my mock. I think Id take Foster, but they are more likely to take Barnett based on this Klein signing.


Maybe look at Zach Cunningham at 32 or Raekewon McMillan at 32 or 42

I think Foster can be a real sleeper.

I like Foster better but I'm turned off by the combine fiasco so I'd probably take Barnett.

Barnett no question. We got Robertson and Kline in the middle who will be solid. Foster is a moron and would have the same problems as Anthony picking up an nfl defense.

The combine, the rumors of his weak intellect, and injury history has me very nervous about Foster at #11. Down into the 20s sounds more right.

The more I look at Barnett the more I am seeing a fully rounded productive guy like Cam Jordan or Calais Campbell. I'd prefer a perhaps purer speed edge rushing guy but would be very happy with him too.

I'm wondering if they would take Charlton over Barnett for the same reason.

What will Foster's attitude be after he's got millions in his bank account. Sounds like a train wreck.

I totally agree. While Barnett may not pop off as ultra quick, off the edge rusher, he understands his strengths & uses them to the best of his abilities.

The crazy fact is that his combine numbers are almost identical to Terrell Suggs combine numbers. If no one knew Suggs combine measurables & just went off of his NFL tape & production, you wouldn't figure that he posted the combine numbers he actually posted.

Foster. But I like Barnett. You can use 32nd pick to move and grab Barnett

We are getting a DE in the first round. And a OLB at 32 or in the second.

Not sure about 32.if one of the two top tight ends is available, could go that way
