2017 Draft Prospects

[Skinsfanatic]

Players I have watched that I want at some point in the draft (I realize at least two out of the three are very unlikely):

1. Dalvin Cook, FSU
2. Solomon Thomas, Stanford
3. Demarcus Walker, FSU

Cook may be there but we need Defense man, he is a guy that I'd love to have but it'll also depend on FA

If we could get Cook in the first and Walker in the second, I would take that.

I know we need defense (desperately), but our red zone efficiency (and offense in general) improves 5x with Dalvin.

Cook had 6 fumbles this year.... he is good, but we need defense

The defensive talent in the first round looks good so far. I also believe we need to go defense in the first round. I think we could still pick up a decent RB in the 3rd and 4th rounds. Maybe a Perine, Gallman, Foreman, or Conner.

We are not taking a RB in the first round.
And I've had enough of RBs that fumble.

I'm a FSU fan, I've seen a lot of Cook. He's a freaking game changer. Best player in the draft if you ask me. He doesn't have fumbling problems. Just YouTube the Orange Bowl and watch him turn 3rd and 21 into a 71 yard run and 1 inch away from a TD. If we have Cousins locked up and he's there at 17 I'd cry if we didn't get him. And it's not like it's not a position of need. We need another back.

Cook is a beast. No doubt about that and I believe he could boost our running game. He has a great attitude and plays hard every down but in my opinion, there so much rich defensive talent in the first round and I don't see how we can afford not to take a defensive talent in the first round. I think the defensive line and secondary has to be our two biggest needs to fill in the first two or three rounds.
