Didn’t know all this

Gotta remember these days, inciting a riot is ok depending on what kinda riot

NO, RIOTS are not ok! Period!

[EdmundDorf]

Pitts and Sewell will be gone inside the top 8, too expensive in draft capitol from 19. They aren't likely to slip past 10

[EdmundDorf]

Haha, that's fast work

[sdskinsfan2001]

Tough call on Parsons. I wouldn't trade up for him, but if those were the only things, and Rivera feels comfortable with him, I'd gladly take him at 19.

[simbosargos75]

Pass on Parsons.

And I would be surprised if we weren't one of the teams who took him off their board

Of LB possibilities, I am warming up to the Tulsa kid .. Zaven Collins.

6'4" 260 ... a big boy, but with speed to cover sideline to sideline. Run stopping, fumble causing kinda LB ... but also the cover skills to pick off passes, and take them back to the house.

He sounds like a freak.

And all this would only be enhanced behind our line of freaks.


I know we need serious offensive help ... but adding this kind of linebacker would make our D something crazy special.

100% agree, he is tall like our lineman, would really affect throwing lanes and could use him in a hybrid role like Isaiah Simmons....

In our defense, he would be another athletic freak (young, sweat) that would really make plays all over the field with his coverage skills

I would run to select Parsons if he were available. We don't need a room of choir boys, we need football players. Parsons is a VERY good football player. Would you have wanted Ray Lewis? He was a great player, but did far worse things than Parsons has done.

Lewis hadn't done anything when drafted, so yeah, I wouldn't have had a problem with him. But if he had been involved in the crap he was involved in later, yeah, I would've passed.

[sdskinsfan2001]

This draft is strong in all the spots we need besides TE. There are a few guys there tho too, just not quite as deep.

Draft is 1 month from today. Yes!!

[SunnySide]

If Micah Parsons is there at 19, I think we do an Orakpo and make our pick without waiting the clock out.

Highly doubt he is though.

I think he will be there. It wouldn't even surprise me if he is there with our 2d rounder (I'd risk it then). Don't forget how Rueben Foster fell and he was a better prospect than Parsons is now.

[Chico23231]

I kinda like the inciting a riot vibe at the MLB position on the field, that is what he should be doing. I’d take Parsons

Better than the masseuse tuggy vibe at QB

[Chief X_Phackter]

I guess calling someone out for being racist = inciting a riot.

Maybe the school Principal should have handled the racism part of the scenario rather than empowering the alleged racists by accusing Parsons of inciting a riot for calling them out.

Good for him for calling them out. You don't get to pose for AND POST a picture that says "You stupid N***er" and just get away with it...
