Parcell's search for another Lawrence Taylor

[HybridPHIN 23]

Good read, based on old info but still a good topic.

Do you think he will find the Miami Dolphin version this year ??
There's not going to be a Demarcus Ware available at #25.... my guess is not this year, unless we take Michael Johnson in the 2nd... He has all the tools to dominate... much better than taking Matthews or Barwin at 25 or Sintim at 44 IMO. MJ may be a boom or bust type but his ceiling is way higher than the other prospects. We already have solid contributers, we want a game changer !!!!

I want nothing to do with Johnson. Looks like Tarzan plays like Jane. Not sure why you think he is a better prospect than the guys you mention although I dont want Matthews either,

I disagree as far as a "ceiling" is concerned. There are multiple OLB types here who have further to go but the one I keep coming back to is Connor Barwin because he runs a 4.5/4.6 and is 6'4 256 and can bulk up more by a mile while having all the intangibles you look for.

You should quote Boomer on that "Looks like Tarzan plays like Jane" statement.

I think other than Michael Johnson as an obvious answer, I think English and Everette Brown also have a chance to be Ware-esque.

Why? Did Boomer coin that phrase?

Dude, that phrase has been around since the early 90's and was in fact first used in comparison of a player to Tony Mandarich. Not sure who first coined it, but I don't think it was Boomer, in fact if you google it you can see it is used all the time, no offense to Boomer...

Ya think?

But Boomer used that exact phrase describing Johnson.

There will NEVER be another L. Taylor. It would have been far better if the story was...searching for the qualites of L. Taylor.

Why should I quote Boomer , did not know he ever said that and Im sure he was not the first to say it. I rarely see Boomer ever post so even though we may agree on that I did not use his quote. I have said that about Johnson various times this was not the first time.

I like Larry Englsih....I think he could be the type of rusher we need.....I think he'll last past the 25th if we don't take him but I doubt he'd still be there at 44.

Ozzy rules!!

I agree with you. I think Johnson has bust written all over him. I love Sintim the best and hope he is a phin. :d-day:
