draft for DE's. This might have something to do with it. Those numbers that Fred brought up are pretty telling though
about Garrett and Barnett.
I think most of us agree that Barnett has a great nose for the ball. He may very well be a stud. TS, at #9 he carries serious concern.
Fournette carries risk, but the upside is just too overwhelming to pass up. They should race to the podium if he's still there.
If he's gone (Panthers & Jets) then the next three players that are close to sure things imo are Adams,Foster, & Howard.
Robinson could be there, but at #9 I'm not so sure he's worthy of that pick.
As was mentioned by a friend earlier, Howard is really intriguing with the continued TE situation. Lack of toughness being a severe problem with that group in particular.
I like Barnett, but he worries me at #9 for reasons I previously mentioned. I like the depth of this draft at pass rusher/ DE, so I think we can still get a very good one in the 2nd or wait & double up on a couple good one's in the 3rd/4th.
