Akhhorous and CNYSkinFan Debate Series: 4th Round Draft Prospects

Akh on Adrian McPherson QB: my views are well known on this prospect. Im not going to belabor the point so I’m going to post something useful:

Neapolitan Soup Ingredients: Fowl, potato flour, eggs, Bechamel sauce, peas, asparagus, spinach, clear soup. Mix a quarter pound of forcemeat of fowl with a tablespoonful of potato flour, a tablespoonful of Bechamel sauce, and the yolk of an egg; put this into a tube about the size round of an ordinary macaroni; twenty minutes before serving squirt the forcemeat into a saucepan with boiling stock, and nip off the forcemeat as it comes through the pipe into pieces about an inch and a half long. Let it simmer, and add boiled peas and asparagus tips. If you like to have the fowl macaroni white and green, you can colour half the forcemeat with a spoonful of spinach colouring. Serve in a good clear soup.

CNYSkinFan on Adrian McPherson: I don’t understand why so many Redskin Fans love this guy. I know he has a ton of talent but his character issues smack of problem child. This is a Joe Gibbs team and yes in the past he has had characters like Riggins and Manley on the team. But QB is a leadership position and you just don’t put some potential cancer into the position because he can run and throw well. Not to mention that a mobile QB has never fit the Gibbs offense. This has pass written all over it.

Akh on George Gause De South Carolina: a physical project, but with a ton of upside. He’s big, strong and fast. 6-5 280ish and once ran a 4.52. He runs around a 4.7-4.9 now, but he’s still big. The problem with him was that he never really put it together in college and dominated. It could because they kept moving him from OLB to DE and back, but he’s not a instant player in the NFL. In the right system, without being asked to be the man, this could be a good pick.

CNYSkinFan on George Gause: An interesting prospect and maybe a good 4th round pick. He could be what the Redskins need and need what the Redskins can offer. Gause has a lot of athleticism and talent. However he also is slow to recognize a play as it develops or locate the ball. A year of tutelage is what is needed and he could learn n a lot from Daniels and Wynn.

Akh on Larry Brackins WR Pearl River CC: Very raw prospect who dominated and has amazing physical ability. Another guy who needs to be in the right situation and not be asked to instantly contribute. however, as at most, a Z wideout his rookie year, he could develop into a great player. A lot of risk here.

CNYSkinFan on Larry Brackins: A lot of risk but a lot of upside. Amazing physical ability but never played at top level. 4th round is a little too high for this kind of risk at least this year. IF he slips to 5 or 7 he might be worth a shot.

Akh on Stephan LeFlors QB Louisville: another darling of HR. Interesting and productive player, but not as tall as you like, nor as strong an arm. A project at best, but might be worth looking at. but you cant expect much from him.

CNYSkinFan on Stephen LeFlors: Gibbs likes this guy, flew out personally to the Louisville pro-day to watch him. Very accurate passer and great in the short game. Arm is not the best for the long throws and is not very Mobile. He is also shorter then your average QB. He may be worth the risk though especially since he won’t be asked to contribute immediately.

Akh’s Recommendation: So much depends on who the skins draft before this pick, but it would obviously be for the position(s) that werent addressed earlier. But just on sheer ability, the best pick would be Brackins. Not Soup Boy. Gause, if the skins are looking to address a need and havent drafted a DE yet.

CNYSkinFan’s Recommendation: Take Stephan Leflors. If Ramsey is not the guy, we need to draft a young guy this year and let him battle with Hasselbeck and either be 3rd string or spend a year on the practice squad. Once on the team he can learn the offense and take over next year, if Ramsey falters, and be the backup if Ramsey does well. He is the perfect choice at QB since it won’t immediately cause a QB controversy.
