12 players you'd like in the 1st round?

[phinfan_1]

Here's a list of some players I wouldn't mind drafting in the 1st round.
Some of these guys are considered a reach with the 16th pick. I don't think all these guys are targets but I think they would be an upgrade right away.
I left out some guys I think may not be there when we pick.

OT - Winston Justice
OG - Max-Jean Gilles - Just watched the senior bowl, this guy is awesome in short area. Way better than any of our guards.
OC - Nick Mangold - Big upgrade, smart player, our C for years.
DE - Tamba Hali - Awesome pass rusher from the left side. Would be great opposite Jason. Would improve our pass rush right away. Good against the run.
DE - Manny Lawson
CB - Jimmy Williams
CB - Tye Hill
CB - Antonio Cromartie
S - Donte Whitner
S - Ko Simpson
WR - Santonio Holmes
WR - Chad Jackson

What do you think?

What are yours?

 

[sports24/7]

At 16: Chad Greenway, Manny Lawson, Ernie Sims, Chad Jackson, Winston Justice, Ty Hill, Antonio Cromartie, Jason Allen, Broderick Bunkley, Jimmy Williams.

If we traded down: Nick Mangold, Max Jean-Gilles, Ko Simpson, Kameron Wimbley.

Manny will play OLB in the NFL

Manny will play OLB in the NFL

If he goes to a system that runs a 3-4. I couldn't see him playing OLB in a 4-3 and in a 4-3 he could be an effective pass rusher at DE. He has a similar body and skill set as Jason Taylor.

 

[Jimmy James]

OT - Winston Justice

Definitely. I dream that he's there at 16.

OG - Max-Jean Gilles - Just watched the senior bowl, this guy is awesome in short area. Way better than any of our guards.

Nope. He's not even a 1st rounder any more with the sorry 40 time he had.

I'm pretty shocked you didn't list Jason Allen. He had a great combine and is just what Saban looks for at CB/S based on what we know.

 

[PhinsRDbest]

No particular order and yes I know some wont fall to us
1. Winston Justice
2. Antonio Cromartie
3. Chad Jackson
4. Santonio Holmes
5. Manny Lawson
6. Bobby Carpenter
7. Haloti Ngata(I know highly unlikely)
8. Michael Huff(" " " " )
9. Ko Simpson
10. Jimmy Williams as a S
11. Gabe Watson
12. Jonathan Joseph

 

[Phishstix]

Nope. He's not even a 1st rounder any more with the sorry 40 time he had.

oh, i thought jean-gilles was still running his 40. i hear he's about 30 yards into it, so he's on about a 7 week flat pace. :wink:

12 is to many, because nobody is including the guys that are going to go in the top 5. So about 9 or ten of each people list are going to be around a 16. Heres my list of 6.
Jimmy Williams
Chad Greenway
Haloti Hgata
Gabe Watson
Winston Justice
Michael Huff
One or two of these guys has to be around at 16

 

[motioncityhifi]

antonio cromartie
jason allen
chad greenway
manny lawson
winston justice
broderick bunkley
ernie sims
tye hill
chad jackson

anyone of these would make me happy.

 

[Skeet84]

In no real order


1 Winston Justice
2 Chad Jackson
3 Santonio Holmes
4 Antonio Cromartie
5 Tye Hill
6 Ko Simpson
7 Jimmy Williams
8 Jonathan Joseph
9 Ernie Simms
10 Jason Allen
11 Gabe Watson
12 Max Jean-Giles

This would be my top 12 considering no big falls

40 time is very irrelevant to Oline. MJG is mauler, and while 16 is too high for him, if we trade down, I wouldnt mind drafting him.

If Huff or Ngata or Justice are there, you take them (in that order). If not, I say go for Manny Lawson.

 

[FINFAN_4_EVER]
