New scouting department/GM this year, so it may or may not be different.

Yeah, I realized the philosophy might change. Maybe we won't be so locked into the guys that visit.

I will only be pissed if we take Ray over another pass rusher.  I'll understand if they take him over a WR or OL.

I just dont see how he could be considered BPA. Hopefully they are just going down a long list of possibilities. I havent watched a ton of Ray, but he's a little stiff and I just dont think his future is at 3-4 OLB. I dont really see him as a stand-up linebacker like I do with Fowler and Gregory

Well so far I've only seen these two visits reported so there should be more to come.

Ray is the best pass rusher in the draft

Ray is the best pass rusher in the draft

Based on what?

[Ignatius J Reilly]

Based on what?

The fact that it'll annoy people.

[Badger]

Based on what?

He has the most sacks, dummy.

Fowler is a bum. Any NFL-calibre tackle will render him useless. If you want speed call Vernon Gholston he's probably sitting on a couch somewhere

BTW I'm not arguing this. Quote the post and print it out if you want. Remind me in two or three years

If you're kidding around, it's cool.  But if you're seriously trying to say that Fowler is only a speed rusher, then you need to take several freaking seats. 

Had you said that Randy Gregory or Victor Beasley were the best pass rusher in the draft, then I'd be more than OK with it.  Ray is clearly the fourth pass rusher in this draft (at best).  Eli Harold and Bud Dupree could easily jump him too.
