BTW kam, Corey Williams strength is rushing the passer as well. Never really known as a gap filler or run stopper. If I'm not mistaken he played a bit of end when in the 3-4 on Cleveland.
Our whole defensive scheme really is to reek havoc in the backfield, with less emphasis in stopping the run, and it showed as we didn't stop the run that well last year, but still were pretty high up in sacks.

So if anything, I'm apologizing for saying at any time that no one is going to be able to run on us.
But at the same time, Fairley is very much interchangeable as the starter in favor of Williams. Williams might be bigger, but his specialty was still getting to the backfield (and though he didn't get many sacks, he still got into the backfield a lot). Because like I said, Gunther Cunningham emphasizes getting pressure and getting into the backfield.

Unorthodox? Perhaps.
Impossible? No.

See, looks like them Jaguars fans were happy. You probably weren't expecting Gabbert, much to your surprise.
What had happened was.

I was talking to Jake on aim.

Heard them say something about a trade with Jags/Dallas that didn't go threw, so I started thinking that maybe the Jags are calling the Skins.. so I started standing. I was standing, then Bam, Jags jump on clock, then I start jumping and screaming like a white bitch for the beatles, then Adam Schefter says "Jacksonville Jaguars will get its Franchise Quarterback" .. I fell and started crying..

Yall dunno how hard its been.

To have to deal with Garrard/Leftwich for the past 8 or so years.

:/ Gets tough after a while.

Basically what Detroit did was draft a replacement for Williams. They will however, still get ran on, because no NT. Its cool.

Correct.
We were still considered to have one of the better lines last year. So an upgrade for Corey (we hope), can only help.
I think Hill will become a huge part to the d-line though.

I thought the Bengals might steal Gabbert but they didn't. Once I seen Jacksonville trade up, I knew that was it. As did probably everyone. Got to have a good QB or life will be miserable. I thought the Bengals had that guy with Carson Palmer, we see how that has turned out.

That kind of reaction, is what the draft is all about. Aside from improving your team. The fans reactions are one of the best parts, and I mean the REAL fans, not the fakes who are just happy about who they got because everyone else is. I was getting excited when our 1st pick was nearing, and got really nervous. Than when we picked Fairley I was upset we didn't get Prince but at the same time realized "Damn, we just got Fairley. I wasn't even thinking of him" and I starting clapping my hands and yelling.

Corey Williams played 3-4 DE but was terrible at it, it was why we dumped him.

Day 3!!!!


I want to come away with Mark Herzlich.

He was considered a first round value before the cancer, if he continues to get heathy, it'll be a steal.

I'd like the Panthers to take Brandon Burton here... Maybe Chimde Chikwe (I don't like House that much, but wouldn't mind him either). Perhaps Luke Stocker or Virgil Green [unless we think we can get DJ Williams or Julius Thomas round 5, which might happen]. Maybe Edmund Gates...

Yanks - It would be nice to get Cam another target. I think a guy like Gates would be a nice selection for you guys.

Yeah kam, man, 8 hours of therapy AND then he'd go work out? That's fucking amazing.

No real big WRs left outside of Terrance Toliver. Jags wan't a big WR thats going to be able to go for jump balls and overpower defenders. Right now, biggest WR we have on the team is Kassim Osgood, and hes a horrible WR, but a pro bowl Gunner on the special teams.
