Branch would make a great NT, I don't know what you mean saying he wouldn't fit the 3-4.
Alan Branch is the 2nd best pick we could make need-wise. 1st would be Joe Thomas.
he is NOT a 3-4 NT sorry. tahts fact he has no strenght or power for it.

This smells of a 'way too early mock' guessing game. No way Quinn falls out that far, even with a bad combine.
actually scott wright agrees with me about him being a NT, if you read his review of him.Well then you're disagreeing with just about every major scout that's out there. nfldraftcountdown, footballsfuture, all the "draft experts" on here such as ck, we all project him as a good NT.
I agree that Gaines Adams would be a good pick for our system, although he'd be wasted for a few years since we already have JT.
QB is not our 1st need. If Quinn or Russel fell to us you probably have to draft them based on BPA, but we have greater needs than QB.

That's from ckparrothead.Alan Branch is the concensus manchild inside guy that projects to play your classic 1-technique nose tackle type position in the pros. He's every bit of 6'6" and 330 pounds, with power and a whole lot of athleticism, and an uncanny nose for the ball. He doesn't withstand the double-team like you'd like all the time, and he has that classic "takes plays off" look to him at other times, but a beast is a beast and this guy is the best. He'll be off the boards pretty early.
I don't see how you can say that. Just about every analyst I have read has said he can play 3 positions probably and NT is one of them.he is NOT a 3-4 NT sorry. tahts fact he has no strenght or power for it.
You don't always draft purely on need. We have a 30 year old QB who is coming off of a bad injury, has played a handful of games in 2 years and is new territory to the coaching staff. If a franchise QB is on the board at 9, you pick him.

We'd pass on Quinn because we have greater needs than QB. Though if Quinn is available, we could always use that as leverage to trade down with a team that wants him--like Carolina.
