I’ve always said on here I’d rather have Stanley over Ramsey considering the circumstances. So yeah
I wasn’t saying “you” as in you specifically. Just making sure that’s clear. More of a generalized comment. I have to agree although I’ve gone back and forth on it but after 3 years it’s pretty clear to me that Stanley was a better pick over Ramsey even with his injuries. Can’t believe it’s been that long that we drafted him.

Lol don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying I wouldn’t want him, but he acts like a straight up bitch most of the time. I sincerely see his career ending long before his talent fades. I don’t think he lasts through a second deal(if he gets one) with the jags, and I could see him bounce around a few teams before fading into obscurity a little because nobody wants him in there talking shit about players and coaches and throwing tantrums on the field.

Those personalities always rear their ugly heads, unless they go to Cincinnati, then they could shit on the owners dinner plate, shoot the mayors wife, show up to a game drunk and naked, and get an extension for it.
I don't mind trash talkers at all but Ramsey is just a dickhead with zero style.

Why? I like him and he’s explosive but I’m worried he will get washed out versus stronger tackles in the NFL.


I’m a huge Ramsey fan and wanted him bad and I’m on record saying I’d rather have Ramsey but I think I need to take that back. I haven’t seen a LT as good as Stanley in the draft as a prospect yet since we took him. There have been RT prospects who were very good and some surprise LT but no LT as good as he is IMO.


I’m a big fan of his but the antics get old but he’s an elite and special player. I’d love him but I’m not sure you can justify him over Stanley.


I think this point is rather moot. Richard Sherman is damn near identical in his attitude but he has a career. Teams don’t generally care unless it hurts the team.
Wasn’t Ramsey on record insinuating that bortles is the reason the team is losing? That’s a little different than Sherman trash talking opponents

Maybe since it’s public but sounds like Sherman said stuff about Wilson before too. I think they’re both cut from the same cloth and it’s just semantics. They’re very identical in many ways.

You guys say what you want, I’d take Ramsey in a split second. I don’t care wtf he says or how he says it lmao
This is basically me with OBJ. I understand that people think he's a weirdo or whatever, but I'm not passing up on his talent.

With any player really. And honestly I don’t have a problem with OBJs personality. Some people get a little hot headed sometimes who cares
 
This might be coming a bit early this year but I think I found my 2019 crush.
Prepare for the next Von Miller guys cause Julian Okwara is the guy
Not afraid to take the risk here. He has amazing speed, bend, motor. on e v e r y damn play

My heart is gonna break if he doesn´t declare early. Can´t wait one more year and we need such a guy NOW while everybody else reaches on any Ferrell and company

Haven’t seen any tape of him, but 32 may be too late get him

Lol appreciate the enthusiasm about #32.
Have to check Jerry Tollery/De'veon Coney/Julian Love tapes to find some material.
He's 100% worth and the lack of production throughout the 3 years would eventually have him dropping to RD2 and even 3 (but then it will be outrageous, like my man Lawson dropping to the 4th).
I guess I'll end up crying, though, because both the level of Edge competition and the need for more tapes may push him to go back to school.

If he does have lack of playing time, then he should go back to school, but many times that doesn’t matter and they want to start earning real dough.

There's quite a few 2016\2017 games on ESPN with no stat available. That's usually when they're either injured or just too young and you prefere a good veteran to take the full snaps. I didn't find anything concerning injuries nor I think the second case applies here. Idk maybe they honestly didn't take notice.
 
There´s so much to like about Winovich tapes.. I´ll have a lot of work to do this next offseason
I definitely see him as a late 1st-2nd rounder. I´d definitely take him ahead of Polite as he has much more experience playing early downs and can be more physical. He´s not a pure rush edge setter who will win with his punch and have much to play 2 gap , however he´s fast enough and has very low pads to consistent disrupt the pocket.
In case Okwara doesn´t declare, he´s 100% my horse.
