Here's an article i read earlier today that I thought was a pretty good read of this writers opinion as to why we should take Chris, not Jake Long at #1. Some of you may enjoy reading, and discussing this. Id be happy with either long to be honest. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=A0wNdcJRTP1HfIEAoQ.L2bYF?slug=dolphinsshouldgochrislon&prov=tsn&type=lgns
I want Chris too. The whole meeting with Jake thing doesn't mean a whole lot just yet IMO. If we hear nothing about meeting with Chris or Gholston in the next 3 weeks, then it means a little more. Either way, not having a holdout at #1 is almost as important as not drafting Matt Ryan (eh thats a reach).
I dont think gholston will be the best pick for our 3-4 defense. I think if were going to go defensive, it should be long, and if were going to go offensive, it should be long as well. Personally i'd be happy either way. I think i prefer jake long by a slight margin only because i feel our o-line, has been too bad for too long, and we've already beefed up the DL alot through free agency. like i said though, i would be happy either way
Chris Long just looks to unathletic to me......Gholston has issues with his "drive", Matt Ryan is FAR from a cant miss franchise QB. Jake Long is the safest pick that makes the most sense.
