JTrain Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Where do you think Suh goes in the draft? He will go in the top six no matter what, and probably top two or three. I have read that the Rams are not interested. The Browns may like Suh, but they play a 3-4 defense and Suh seems much better suited for the 4-3. There is some speculation that they might like him at DE in the 3-4, but I doubt they risk such a high pick for that experiment. That would seem to leave the Bucs, Lions, Redskins and Raiders as the final possibilities. I think the Bucs are the most likely to get Suh, although they'll have to hope they don't beat Seattle and/or Carolina. It would be cool to see two of the best Blackshirts of the past decade together on the same NFL defense. Quote Link to comment
SECHusker Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I believe he is a #1 overall pick, but I don't want him going to any of those teams, especially the Raiders. They are all black holes for talent. I would prefer him get drafted later and have a better chance for a lasting legacy then go high to team that does not know how to utilize his talent. But I am sure his wallet and agent would argue otherwise. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I would like to see him go #1, and he's certainly worth a #1 pick, but I would hate to see him go to any of those teams. Quote Link to comment
808Husker in KCMO Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Bucs will draft him. They know if they don't, Their QB will have nightmares all the time about being sacked by SUH! Quote Link to comment
JTrain Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 I think the Bucs have a relatively bright future in the next 3-4 years. Same with the Lions actually. But either way, the reality is that he won't fall any further than those teams. Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Maybe my Vikings can trade up and get him . Oh, wishful thinking... If he absolutely had to go to one of those teams, I would prefer the Bucs. I think they have the best chances out of all of those teams to get back to a play-off contending team. We'll see, though. That's the thing that sometimes sucks about being a high NFL draft pick. You're not going to get picked up by the best team or a team that will take you far, in most cases. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the last defensive player to be drafted first in a draft was Demarrio Williams for the Texans. He had a lot of potential but given that the Texas never go anywhere every year, you really don't hear about this guy (or see him) being one of the better defensive players in the NFL.

HuckFoley Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I'm going to bet he goes 1st or 2nd. I'm trying hard to think of someone who might get picked first, and having a hard time coming up with that one. Quote Link to comment

I'm trying hard to think of someone who might get picked first, and having a hard time coming up with that one. I could see the Rams and Browns taking a QB. The Rams have Bulger and Boller, the Browns have Anderson and Quinn. None of those four have been impressive. Why would the Rams say they aren't interested in Suh? Is there something about LaJuan Ramsey that I'm not aware of that makes him more attractive than Suh? Quote Link to comment

Williams was drafted by the Falcons and had a good four seasons with them. Then he was traded to Kansas City where he is now. Quote Link to comment
Eric Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 The Rams are just in dire need of a quarterback. I think the browns will have the first pick and take someone like Jimmy claussen. Rams will probably be second and take Jake Locker. Hopefully the Bucs are sitting there at 3 and can get Suh. That would be a great fit for him. Their team has lots of potential. Then hopefully the Chiefs can get Okung..they need line help bad! Quote Link to comment
808Husker in KCMO Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Okung wont be around for the chiefs. Not with Rams Browns Bucs Bills Raiders all picking before them. Quote Link to comment

HuckFoley Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 so what QB goes first if that is what the Rams go for? I'm assuming it is not Bradford, McCoy or Tebow Quote Link to comment

I think he means Mario Williams. and for what it's worth, Williams is a fantastic football player. Pro-Bowler last year, I believe. Much better career so far than Vince Young and Reggie Bush. You did hit the nail on the head that since he is a defensive player in Houston he doesn't get much media love, but the NFL coaches sure respect the hell out of him. Quote Link to comment
Eric Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 so what QB goes first if that is what the Rams go for? I'm assuming it is not Bradford, McCoy or Tebow Claussen or Locker supposedly. Jimmy will be leaving school now that Weis is gone. Quote Link to comment
