If they wanted a buzz they should have had Wallace wear it at his presser! Because depending on who we draft the excitement of a New Jersey might not out weigh who is holding it up!
Not a lineman... CB or DE or TE or WR. Lineman will def be 2nd pick.

I think MexDolfan is probably right about the thread premise, though. They do want to unveil the new jersey at the draft. How are the invites sent out?
TE is a HUGE need, remember, Fasano isn't on the team anymore, and I would cut Egnew and Mastrud tomorrow...Keller? He might be gone next year. I'd target a potential pro-bowler in Eifert, but would also target a better blocking TE in a later round...Eifert would impact our offense in ways that no other player on the board can, before, or after we pick. Best TE on the Draft, period!!
I love what I saw on Tavon Austin's tape. But you could argue the same on other WVU legend: Pat White.if the finz are BENT on drafting O-LINE, and they are trading up, FISHER is the only choice.
i think he is better than joeckel and one of the best LT prospects in a long time. the guy is wicked fast off the ball and has a mean pop at the point. he has the ability to go down as one of the best pass blocking lt's to ever play the game.
he is the ONLY tackle i would not get furious over if we got him.
ANYONE WHO THINKS that AUSTIN is nothing but a slot receiver is TOTALLY misinformed and hasnt followed his college career. he can play the outside in the nfl. he is NO devon bess who isnt fast or quick enough for the outside. and jamming austin on the line is going to be almost impossible for big db's. his leap ability was OFF THE CHARTS at the combine and wont have a problem with big cb's down field.
he will put gibson or bess on the bench right away. and as much as i love hartline, austin could bench him to.
this is not TEDD GINN OR BESS or another of the long line of speed only, smaller players. not at all. and those who have watched him know this. his wr routes are exellent, big time hands and something ginn never had and was a BIG knock on him coming out and many people didnt like the pic that early because of THAT FACT!! he didnt have the game speed that he had on the track. john avery was another whos game lacked. he had wiggle room against college guys but didnt have the game or dicipline or speed for the nfl.
all of these guys that people drag up from the past had GLARING issues that were red flag for the nfl and early draft choice. AUSTIN HAS NO problems or red flags other than people concentrating on his size. wow ! 3-4 tiny inches and he is 6'0 tall. 3 tiny inches!! and that going to change his game? no.
the kid is strong as an ox, chisled, TRUE 4.3 speed. top notch wr from the slot or on the edge. just as good at the rb position. kick arse kr/p return man.
and how is that not worth the #12?
GM's miss on a lot of talent quiping over, or hanging on to archaic size and height requirements. when you have played your position for 3-4 years of big time college ball at a dominant level against big time competition, you have to go by the tape. and so many are so set in their ways about measurables, they lose the talent they so desperately NEED!!
austin is this very player that is going to make many gm's and armchair gurus sick to their stomach that they didnt have the vision take him.
hopefully that gm wont be IRELAND if austin is available at #12.
Geno Smith is the poor man's version of Ryan Tannehill?
Double trade up? We leave the draft with what, 2-3 players?
lmao at the thought that Miami makes a pick to get the jersey on TV.
