    I like ray's mentality to play at the next level. He has that mean streak in him that this team is missing on defense.

    Leonard Williams is saying staying at USC is a possible. The top half of this draft isnt looking very elite.

    Gregory got dominated by lewan last year. He doesn't come off the screen much. Finds a way to show up in the play but I've often found that can be misleading.

    Ray has a swagger about him. Very real. The type to take it to the next level. He can be a key cog with Casey and Morgan. Plus dudes got the get off. It's noticeable. He also doesn't mind breaking down and taking the inside shoulder to beat the tackle. Won't be weak against the run because of that.

    I am pretty sure Williams is coming out. He may talk a good talk but I read he has a 2 yr old and college isn't going to pay the bills like the nfl will, especially being a top 5 pick or better.

    I am thinking more about Shawn Oakman at OLB. He is a 6-9 freak with speed and quickness and from what I have read is light on his feet and comfortable in space. I would like to see the Titans make a trade down or 2 and grab him. He could be used the same way GB is using Peppers. If Peppers is 34 and never played OLB and is putting up numbers he has been I can only imagine what Oakman could do. He can also play 3-4 DE but what would be more intimidating? Having Oakman in a 3 point stance at the same height as the rest of the line or standing in a 2 point stance where the QB can see the giant Titan and know this guy is coming for him. We need playmakers and people that are versatile.

    We definitely need play makers; game changers at pass rusher!

    Why are people talking about Ray?

    The guy got kicked for targeting in a big game. That's ****ing stupid, not a mean streak.

    Did you even watch that game, or are you basing this off of headlines?

    Ray was within 2 steps or the qb and led with his hands. If he was targeting he had the opportunity to destory him.

    Yea, I was watching the game real time. He was ejected fairly, for the second time this season if I remember correctly.

    They should just start playing flag fooball now, his hit was no worse than what jj watt did to Mett.

    Ray took like four steps. It was an easy roughing call. I saw it happening when the camera followed the pass down field. You could just see it coming.

    I thought the ejection was a bit much, but it was without a doubt a personal foul.

    It is text book definition of targeting per ncaa rules. What Wyatt did to Mett is irrelevant.
