DawgTalkers.net Forums The Archives 2013 NFL Season NFL Draft (2013) Best Value at Position

Thought this was a nice idea for a thread as I read another post.

Combination of impact and projected round.

By position using typical starting 11.

QB: Brock Osweiler, Arizona St. - Round 3-4
RB: Doug Martin, Boise St. - Round 3
FB: IDK
WR1: Ryan Broyles, Oklahoma - Round 4-6
WR2: Marvin McNutt, Iowa - Round 4-5

DE: Bruce Irvin, West Virginia - Round 2-3
DE: Frank Alexander, Oklahoma - Round 4-5
DT: Mike Martin, Michigan - Round 4
DT: Josh Chapman, Alabama - Round 6-7
OLB: LaVonte David, Nebraska - Round 2
MLB: None - Don't see the talent there this year
OLB: Sean Spence, Miami - Round 3-4
CB: Nobody beyond Round 2 stood out at all to me.
S: George Iloka, Boise St. - Round 3

You think Bruce Irvin can play DE in the NFL? I like him a lot, but I think he's definitely a 3-4 OLB. I just don't think he's big enough to play hand on the ground, 4-3 DE

It's a valid question. Just as valid in my mind is can he play in space and can he backpeddal and be an asset to a 3-4 team.

He was a full time DE in college. And he has the frame size to hold more weight.

He may be a 34 OLB. But I really like him coming around the edge and think he's about the size that Heckert likes in his edge rushers.

No way DT Chapman falls to the 6th/7th area....here is my list:


QB Weeden, Okl St. - Round 2-3
RB D.Martin, Boise St. - Round 3
1WR D.Jones, UNC - Round 2
2WR AJ Jenkins, Illinois - Round 4 or J.White, W.Mich. - Round 4-5
sWR TY Hilton, FIU - Round 4 or J. Wright, Arkansas - Round 4
LT McCants, UAB - Round 3
LG Zusevicz, Iowa - Round 4-5
C Blake, Baylor - Round 5
RG Brooks, Miami, OH - Round 3-4
RT Potter, Boise St. - Round 3 or Schwartz, Cal - Round 4-5

4-3

SDE Curry, Marshall - Round 2
DT Cox, Miss. St. - Round 1-2
DT Reyes, UConn - Round 3
RDE Crawford, Boise St. - Round 4-5

SLB Acho, Texas - Round 4-5
MLB Franklin, Arkansas - Round 4-5
WLB David, Nebraska - Round 2 or T.Lewis, Oklahoma - Round 3

1CB Gilmore, S.Carolina - Round 2
2CB Fletcher, BC - Round 4-5 or Fleming, Oklahoma - Round 3-4 or Hayward, Vandy - Round 4-5
sCB Tandy, W.Virginia - Round 5-6
FS Robinson, Michigan St. - Round 4
SS Guy, Kentucky - Round 5-7

that's a pretty darned good list. I'd be happy if the Browns were working off of that one.

I think Ganaway will be a good mid-round value at RB. Also, Bailey from Syracuse has a pretty great burst... could be a 6th-7th maybe UDFA change-of-pace back.

I also like Julian Miller in the 5th-6th as a rotational/rush DE.

Akiem Hicks looked pretty strong with long arms... 5th round value at DT. Maybe goes in the 6th.

I wouldn't be surprised if Brooks goes in round 2. I can't remember seeing a G dominate a game the way he did in the E/W Shrine Game. Of course, it's a 2nd-tier all-star game, so the dynamic is different, but he was so clearly the best player on the field that I think it will elevate his status. If he made it to the 4th I would want us to take him with our 1st #4 just because he looked that good, even though i don't consider OG one of our top 5 needs.
