All Florida State draft?


dawhizz

Recommended Posts

Just a joke (mostly), but in truth an all Florida State draft would address a lot of holes on this team and isn't too unrealistic, I don't think:

 

*Trade down in first and 5th for extra 3 & 4

1) Timmy Jernigan, DT

2) Terrence Brooks, S

3) Lamarcus Joyner, CB

3) Christian Jones, LB

4) Devonte Freeman, RB

4) Telvin Smith, LB

6) Bryan Stork, C/G

6) Kenny Shaw, WR

 

Any other "one college" drafts that would work?

HA! I'd be OK with draft.

 

An all Alabama draft doesn't fit as well because the lack of DT and the requirement of a trade down because of CJ Mosely. It'd be really difficult for the Bears to get two 1st rounders at 20 or earlier. There would have to be a trade up scenario including something/someone pretty good (i.e. Briggs), and player evaluation favoring our requirements. Having said that...

 

-Calvin Pryor is picked before HHCD. Bears trade #14 to Baltimore for their 1st (#17) and 3rd. (150 point difference in picks, and their 3rd is worth 195)

-Bears trade Briggs and some picks from next year (let's say a 2nd and 5th - I'm winging it) to move into the late first round.

-CJ Mosely slides to the end of the first

 

1. HHCD, FS

1. CJ Mosely, ILB

2. Cyrus Kouandijo, OT

3. AJ McCarron, QB

4. Adrian Hubbard, LB

5. Anthony Steen, OG

6. Vinnie Sunseri, SS

6. Deion Belue, CB

*Pick up punter Cody Mandell after the draft.

 

I'd be fine with LBs: Greene, Bostic, SMC, DJ, Mosely

Not sure Baltimore would trade with the Bears again as fallout from JA bungled trade attempt, which he selected RT Gabe Carimi. Too Bad JA did not get CB Jimmy Smith, CU whom Baltimore selected instead of the trade.

Take one Nole of the list and hurts typing being a Noles fan. If the dumb ass couldnt wait a few months to smoke, I don't want him.

Even more reason to go Safety in the first. Jernigan might be there in the second. :P

Christian Jones and Telvin Smith also failed drug tests.

 

Looks like the FSU boys were passing said million dollar joint around.

 

Anthony Johnson(LSU DT) is another guy who failed.

 

Sweet. Hopefully these guys drop. I'd love to see a draft where we start with HHCD, get Jernigan in the second, and then follow it up with Christian Jones and Anthony Johnson.

By the way, you could almost go with an all Auburn draft:

 

1 - Greg Robinson, OT

2 - Dee Ford, DE

3 - Tre Mason, RB

4 - Chris Davis, DB

5 - Jay Prosch, FB

6 - Steven Clark, P (big reach)

6 - Nobody close

Reportedly Mettenberger as well.They all had what was deemed as dilluted urine samples and each one claimed to be trying to rehydrate.

TERRENCE BROOKS, Florida State (5-11, 199, 4.42, 2-3) ? Served as dime back in 2011 before starting two years at safety. "He's athletic, fluid," one scout said. "Not a killer. Not great in space, but OK. He can be physical. Got good range. Fills the alley. Good ball skills." Finished with 126 tackles (9½ for loss), five picks and 15 passes defensed. "If he can ever clean up his consistency with tackling...he should be a starter," a second scout said. "Really good athlete. He doesn't have great size but it's good enough. You'll feel comfortable with him back there. He's a great communicator. He puts the work in." Wonderlic of 23. "You don't see the speed translated to the field," said a third scout. "If he can put it all together from a vision, mental and physical standpoint he's good enough to start at some point." From Dunnellon, Fla.

 

 

 

LAMARCUS JOYNER, Florida State (5-8, 184, 4.51, 2-3) ? Started 27 games at safety as a sophomore and junior before moving to CB in '13. "Earl Thomas isn't very big and the guy from Iowa (Bob Sanders) wasn't very big," one scout said. "Smaller guy but flies around and blows people up. Little stiff for corner but there's places where they can get away with it. Just a good football player. He's a fun kid to be around. At school they call him the Frisbee dog because he's chasing everything down. If people go three wide you can stay base and move him down. If he has to tackle a (big) back one-on-one in space 10 times a day then that means you've got more problems than him and you're (expletive) up up front." Had a 37½-inch vertical jump. Finished with 197 tackles (10½ for loss), eight picks and 15 passes defensed. Wonderlic of 13. "He's a great player but he's so (expletive) small," another scout said. "He's a good little nick (nickel back)." From Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

TIMMY JERNIGAN, Florida State (6-1½, 302, 5.03, 1-2) ?

Third-year junior. "For his size he's exceptionally strong," one scout

said. "He's the man-child in the weight program there. You see that

power on tape. He does get swallowed up. His effectiveness as a nose can

get nullified. He's going to have to be a three-technique. I still

think he's got enough body quickness and tremendous raw power. Power is

his main asset. He's not a true nose unless you're tilting him." Started

just one season, finishing with 139 tackles (25 for loss) and 8½

tackles. "Just a try-hard effort guy," another scout said. "He's not

stout. He's just consistent." From Lake City, Fla. "He starts and is a

good player," a third scout said. "Like him, don't love him. He'll fade

on you. You won't see him sometimes. He has really good three-technique

quickness but not first-round three-technique quickness. He has some

strength, but he'll get swallowed up by some big people." Wonderlic of

20.

 

DEVONTA FREEMAN, Florida State (5-8, 205, 4.54, 3) ? First

1,000-yard rusher (1,016) for Seminoles since Warrick Dunn in 1996.

"He's a tough guy and he does everything," said one scout. "He's just

not big. That's the problem. He tries in blitz (pickup), but that will

be an issue." Third-year junior with 404 carries for 2,255 yards (5.6)

and 30 TDs to go with 47 catches. "Love him," another scout said. "Not

high (in the draft) but love him. That (expletive) is a football

player." From Miami. "Pretty exciting little player," said a third

scout. "Very focused. This kid will never be a problem."

 

 

KELVIN BENJAMIN, Florida State (6-5, 241, 4.65, 1-2) ? Seminoles'

best WR since Anquan Boldin. "Really like his up side," said one scout.

"He's actually a little more fluid for a big guy getting in and out of

his breaks but he's not as fast and certainly not near as smart as

Evans. He's going to be a project. Good kid. He could have really used

another year in school." Turned 23 in February but academic woes

(Wonderlic of 7) delayed his arrival in Tallahassee until age 20. After

redshirting in 2011 and backing up in '12, he broke out in '13. Finished

with 84 catches for 1,506 yards (17.9) and 19 TDs. "Boom or bust,"

another scout said. "You can see some flashes. Little bit inconsistent,

there's lack of speed and some stiffness." From the football hotbed of

Belle Glade, Fla. "I should like him more," a third scout said. "I just

thought he was a prima donna. That was his personality on tape."

 

TELVIN SMITH, Florida State (6-3, 222, 4.50, 3-4) ? Played 54

games but started just 15. "It's a projection (inside)," said one scout.

"Unfortunately, he's undersized. Does he have the instincts? Yes. Is he

a take-on guy? No. Can he cover a tight end? Yes. You do the best you

can." Played the weak side for the Seminoles, finishing with 214 tackles

(29 for loss), seven sacks and 10 big plays. "He's a very good lateral

player," said a second scout. "Can he make plays 10, 12 yards off the

line of scrimmage? I don't know because he was a forward player there.

But he is a really good athlete." Called "stiff and straight-line" by a

third scout. "I don't know what you do with him," a fourth scout said.

"He looks like he's a tiny person. He's a good player, but 215 is kind

of tough." From Valdosta, Ga.

 

 

CHRISTIAN JONES, Florida State (6-3, 239, 4.74, 3) ? Said one

scout: "No instincts. Looks the part. No instincts." Started 37 games

outside and just two in the middle, but several teams are taking a hard

look at him inside. "If you look at him you'd say he'd be a great inside

backer," a second scout said. "You could do it but you're just not

going to get the most out of his ability. Now if you play him as an

outside 3-4 guy that rushes a lot, he'd be much more natural. Florida

State moved him to a down DE spot and I thought their defense started to

play much better." Finished with 225 tackles (24 for loss), eight sacks

and seven big plays. "He's always been a guy that sits behind that

three-technique (DT) and just runs and chases and hits," said a third

scout. "Athletically, he could play inside, but it would take some time

for him." Willie, his father, was drafted in the second round by the

Raiders in 1979 and had 10 sacks in '81. From Winter Park, Fla.

Just for fun, an all Notre Dame draft would work as well:

 

1 - Zack Martin, OG - Not a good fit for the Bears, but many scouts believe he could play OT or OG.

2 - Stephon Tuitt, DT - Possible

3 - Louis Nix, DT - Unlikely he falls this far, but that would be a great pairing.

4 - Troy Niklas, TE - A lot of y'all like TE. He's maybe the 2nd best.

5 - TJ Jones, WR - Meh

6 - Prince Shembo, OLB - Meh

6 - Chris Watt, OG - Wasted pick, but it'd complete the Notre Dame draft.

Darqueze Denard CB

 

Ra Shed Hageman DT

 

Stanley Jean Baptiste CB

 

Chris Borland ILB

 

CJ Fiedorwicz TE

I'd have to be pissed with only one DT taken but not to bad.

I'd like that draft a lot. It's just too bad there aren't any B10 Safeties worth a damn.
