how about taylor thomas and davis for their respective picks? i know it's pure hypothetical and you can't judge a class after just 1 season, but i'm not so sure i wouldn't give them all back for the same picks in this draft. woud we even have missed them in 2013?
 
I would not trade dion. I think its crazy. the coaching staff is not utilizing him to his strengths. but he does not fit the 43 d that we are running imo. he is an aldon smith type and would be great in a 34. that said he still played well in his slim opportunities. I put it on the coaching staff 100%
 
I would only trade Jordan for Clowney. Clowney could fall to 3, but thats up in the air.

Would i trade Jordan just for the 3rd overall pick? No. Absolutely not. Just like other rookies im not going to slam him for his first year. And that general rule aside, i knew Jordan was going to need some time to develop. Not only was he raw coming out, but he had an injury that further kept him out of practice/training camp.

This is the sort of thing that is most damning about Ireland: shifting peoples expectations about whats "normal". 6 years in Ireland is forcing his coaches to throw rookies into the mix. Why? Because his picks 3-6 years ago busted and we have to start young players.
 
Absolutely I would trade him. The problem is that given his inability to have any impact as the number 3 pick in the draft, who would trade for him?

Someone with some sanity in here. He is just dripping with potential and has every raw tool you could dream of. He has the chance to learn behind Wake and Vernon, give him a couple years and I feel he will be the player we envisioned.
 
No way in hell. Jordan has shown off the chart skills in rushing the QB and covering a TE better than anyone I have seen in limited play. He is a star in the making. There is no doubt about it.
 
I like Jordan. He help win games this year. I think that Clowney will be a bust in the NFL. I do not think he loves the game. Anthony Barr I would take ahead of him.
 
No way! That's insane! Vernon took a year to learn and he's a real nice player right now. This guy has a lot more potential Vernon.
