[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1031276, member: 6578"] This is tough, because many of the guys I have issues with us taking they end up being thought of as a lower grade for me, so like example Newton like you I see as redundant, but if he falls to 41 and Gute takes him I get it and wouldn't be mad....so perhaps I just interpret the question too deep. If forced here are a few of my guys that I don't like that haven't been mentioned yet: [B]Jonah Ellis[/B] - Too small, I don't see it on film to be anything more than a third down edge type. If he goes in top 70 like many seem to think I'm just not on board with it at all. [B]Austin Booker[/B] - I know many are excited about his upside, but he has barely played at a program that isn't amazing and he cut down some significant weight from claimed 260s to 240 for the testing and still didn't put up amazing testing scores. Not always a fan of a guy transferring but I think Austin would have been better served transferring to a higher profile school for one year and coming out next year.....not a dice roll I want to take. [B]Blake Corum[/B] - Look this is the HARDEST one for me and is likely one of the hardest of any draft that I can say I don't want us to pick. Corum is a beast, has a heart of a giant...but his physical traits are just too much to overcome and continue to produce at the NFL level IMO. Now I will say if somehow Corum is still there on Day3 I warm up to the risk of such a size outlier just because I know his heart and his IQ may be able to be a back at the next level...MAYBE. [B]Marist Liufau[/B] - Being a Domer and a local to the team, I have seen a lot of Liufau and I just struggle with thinking he's of more value than like a 5th rounder. Yes he's athletic but to me it never translated into wow type plays or to the point I found myself on saturdays picturing him playing on sundays. He's also an older prospect who IMO still never blew up. Mid/Late Day 3 is about as high as I can get behind and desperately don't want GB to draft him before then.
