Thomas Howard...

in the second round. Seth Joyner part deux.

I like him

Faster than Ernie Sims but a little bigger

 

[lobo]

a definite plus...a little under the radar and a roll of the dice if he lasts to round 3.

Didn't his Dad play for us in the '80's?

 

[MigratingOsprey]

he won't be around in round 3 - could be a good pick for in the 2nd for you guys - there was some talk about the hawks taking him at 31 before they signed peterson

I like this kid and think he will be player

 

[red desert]

The guy is a player. Fast. He would thrive as part of Pendy's defense. And there is no way he lasts until the 3rd.

Heres what NFL.com has to say about him

Howard is not a naturally instinctive player and it causes him to often be a beat late moving at the snap, and in the NFL. he will have trouble making up for that to catch players in pursuit. He does not use his hands well to protect his legs from low/cut blocks/traffic which hinders his ability to move through traffic consistently fast. He has a bad habit of getting upright when he chases after the ball in pursuit and it leads to him over-running and missing some tackles. He is a little short and under-sized, and will struggle to hold ground or get free from offensive linemen's blocks consistently.

I personally haven't ever seen him play, i've heard of him but no video...

I'd rather see Sims taken in round 1 then Howard would be eliminated from the mixture in rounds 2 or 3...

Bleh scratch my previous comment, Ernie Sims should be taken in the first and if he isn't I'd rather take Roger McIntosh from Linebacker U. I've seen him play and know what he can do. He's been shooting up draft boards recently AND he can play inside and out.

Howard seems too much of a coaching job.

I'd like to take a chance Bobby Carpenter slides into the 2nd round. That would be a great value pick.
