Plucking a 2nd round WR would give us that skilled type of player when there is a good chance a Sidney Rice could be there. He is just as good as Ginn JR better route runner and better hands then Ginn Jr.
Ginn Jr = most over-rated player in this draft and hasnt even had a practice since the end of the season. And yes I hold injuries against the players.
As for Okoye yes he would make an imediate impact on the team and make us a better team right now on defense. He would free up Porter and JT to rush the passter better and easily plug the middle for Zach on the 4-3 times (about 30% of the time). He could be a major impact then with either traylor or Holliday and as he puts on weight he could grow into a NT.
Was Tim Bowens a big impact on Miami when he was drafted? He was NFL DROY after all. This kid is just like Tim Bowens but younger then he was.
My own choice is trade back to around 16-20 and draft Joe Staley. Use the extra 2nd for a Guard like Sears, blalock, Grubbs or Center like Kalil if he is in the 2nd still at pick 40
Swipe Stanton and then pluck some secondary help.
Football is a game won and lost in the trenches if you get the QB time any WR can get open a 1st or a 7th round talent. We have plenty of 2-3 type WRs on this team from Chambers, Booker, Hagan, Hakeem and even Vick has that potential (and good potential returning kicks).
If we go for a WR we need one with a number 1 type potential and I dont see that in Ginn JR at all. Actually I would draft any of the top WRs in this draft before Ginn JR. Be it Bowe, Meachem, CJ, or even Jarrett. I would even consider Rice about the same value, a top of the 2nd to late late 1st (25-35 value for a pick).
Sorry dude, I am completely and utterly against Ginn Jr for his play style, durability and even his past preformances. He is not an endzone threat with the ball, he is a very straight runner and track sprinter type. He is a great KR/PR but you dont draft that in the 1st round. You dont take that even in the 2nd round except rare occasions. I see him at most as a slot WR and a number 2 at best case. Worst case you get a lesser Daunte Hall that is easily injured.
