I don't mind a gamble, but I don't like getting one round's worth of value, 2 or 3 I can get behind.

We should lock this thread until next preseason. Could we have had him 6 or 7? Prolly.

No, they were the other two beasts drafted in the 3rd round, Justin Jones & B.J. Hill.
Street is just as good though, the stats are misleading because they were all such great players.
My issue is that not everyone recovers from an ACL the same player. Guys like Frank Gore and TJ Watt I'm fine with because you saw them recover and play well, so you're happy.
We screwed the pooch on this one, Lynch even said they had a 3rd round grade pre-injury. The injury was just over a month ago, that is a minimum of a two round ding. This is horrendous value.
If someone else wanted to take the gamble let them, we should have waited.
Okay thx

I think he's going to have trouble coming back. He has huge legs from lifting weights and I don't think his joints can support his weight. Should have let some other team take the risk of drafting him.

I would think his strength in his lower body will help with recovery

Of course. Dude is what, 22/23? He's not going to have weight related joint issues at this age.

So, next year he'll be competing with Armstead at Big End. Stout dude with some ER as well.

If he gets back to 100%, Street will bounce Armstead off the roster with ease. He's an all-around better player.

I would be elated to have a BE whose impossible to run on with legit ER/PR ability. Like Kyle said, taking him this high is a testament to how they believe in his talent.

if our line was 2011 2012 ish and we were a super bowl contender. this move may have made sense. but with our team now and the needs we have.. no.. it was sophomore moronic by the powers to me
