Ok, so heres my question. based one what you saw right now and the teams biggest flaws. who would you draft in the 2012 draft. 1. Brandon Thompson, DT, Clemson (6'2, 310 pounds) 2. Dwayne Allen, TE ,Clemson ( 6'4, 255 pounds) 3. Stephen Gilmore, CB, South Carolina ( 6'1, 193 pounds) 4. Nigel Bradham, OLB, Florida State, (6'2, 240 pounds) 5. Antoine Mcclain, OG, Clemson, ( 6'5, 335 pounds) 6. Jeff Adams, OT, Columbia, ( 6'6 305 pounds) 7. Jarius Wright, WR, Arkansas, ( 5'10, 180 pounds)
I'd go OLB primarily BUT there's the NT from Washington who looks like a man among midgets, I'd want him if at all possible
i could totally see us going with both of those positions. like i said all this will probably change depending on how we play
Good point on NT. Garay is old. Maybe Thomas steps up, maybe not. Immediate needs though include OLB, OT, SS, and TE. Those are the positions I'll be watching in CFB games.
Good god are you a Clemson fan? I like Allen a bit, good size and speed for a big man. I personally wouldn't touch any defensive players from Clemson right now early in the draft. None of them have been overly impressive. I mean they gave up 272 yds rushing to Wofford, 500+ yards of offense to Auburn with no Cam Newton, and over 400 yds to Florida St with a back up freshman QB at home. Just saying.
This is just my early prediction, it will change. but right now i think Brandon thompson would be a upgrade from cam thomas, or maybe even Castillo. the only realm person im not going to take off is Allen, its just the college players i like for our scheme and how they play
Trust me I know. Clemson has benefitted from playing at home and now they have to go on the road to Blacksburg. All I can say is that Clemson's defense is not overly impressive they give up points in bunches especially on the ground. FSU just isn't a running team and to give up that much offense to a freshman QB at home. I wouldn't touch any of em right now especially a DT in the first round.
