I am going to make a bold statement about aaron donald.

scott in albany : 4/18/2014 5:58 pm
I do not think he is the best DT in the draft. I believe he is the best defensive lineman in the draft. He put up better numbers than clowney on the field. Donald does not take plays off.

At the combine donald ran a better 3 cone than clowney. He ran about the same ten yard split. He is a lot stronger than clowney. Clowney ran a better 40, so what. Donald is a freak.

I will be shocked if he is not drafted in the top 10.

If donald is still on the board when the giants pick and they pass on him? Jerry Reese should be sued for malpractice
I was worried

Donld is not a boom or bust pick. He kicked ass for 3 years in college. JPP was a boom or bust player when the giants drafted him . I believe he had only played 7 games in college.
Frankly speaking, its bold just to start a new thread on

Aaron Donald.
I

agree that he won't be around by #12. Somebody is going to take him.
Is BBI going to explode

Mark from Jersey : 4/18/2014 6:21 pm : link
saw enough of him in college to be scared...takes too many plays off.
I'll see your bold statement and raise you  
Hades07 : 4/18/2014 6:23 pm : link
Aaron Donald will still be available when the Giant pick at 12 and the Giants will not draft him.

No, BBI will explode when JR trades up to draft Eric Ebron.
Hmmmmm... Donald  
Mason : 4/18/2014 6:29 pm : link
What do ya guys think he is doing right now? You guys think he's thinking of us too? I hope so. I wonder what he's wearing right now. I think he looks great in blue.

I hardly follow college ball and count on a handful of BBI'ers when it comes to draft knowledge...but even I would be slightly miffed at this.
Slightly miffed?  
Klaatu : 4/18/2014 6:41 pm : link
Not only would I throw my remote, I'd throw it at Reese's head at the press conference.

I will not explode nor be on BBI if this happens. I will quietly turn off the tv, drive to MSG and kill Jerry Reese. Then I will somehow find the server that powers BBI. Then I will drive back to MetLife Stadium and kill Eric Ebron, screw his corpse, light him on fire, snort the ashes and dance hard techno.
I would hate the pick  
Hades07 : 4/18/2014 7:00 pm : link
but I think you guys are going a bit overboard. We all have our opinions, but Reese and Co have a bit more info and experience than us. Rail on here about the pick and then in 4 years when he is terrible you can dredge it up in the archives and say "look, I said he would be terrible". Or if he turns out great, you can pretend this incident never happened. SOP
This is starting to get funny…...  
Simms11 : 4/18/2014 7:03 pm : link
how many Aaron Donald threads do we have now? He must be the most discussed prospect on BBI - like EVER!

I like A. Donald myself, but I won't be surprised if they pass on him as he may not fit the Giants prototype for DT and there may be a better option staring JR right in the face like an OLineman (Lewan, Mathews or Martin).
There was somebody else a couple of years ago  
Hades07 : 4/18/2014 7:09 pm : link
I forget who because the Giants didn't draft him. It is getting to the point with Donald where I hope the Giants don't draft him just so his name stops showing up.
I'm in the AD cult too  
mrvax : 4/18/2014 7:23 pm : link
I just hope he falls to 12 and the Giants have a shot at him.
If they pass, they will regret it, not me.
He will get eatin up in the run game  
PaulN : 4/18/2014 7:42 pm : link
Eatin alive, he will turn out to be a horrible player even if you take him in round 7. He will be there by 12 and Reese will not touch him with a 50 foot pole.
When he stinks  
PaulN : 4/18/2014 7:44 pm : link
Watch the disappearing act by these cowards, they never admit they made a mistake. I can not wait for the draft day meltdown when he falls in the late round and especially when Reese passes on him.
1 more thing  
PaulN : 4/18/2014 7:52 pm : link
If you are new, we go through this every year, these same ones screaming for Donald were screaming just as hard for Fleener, seldom if ever is the BBI darling even a good player, let alone a star player. So take it all with a grain of salt.

What would Aaron Donald do if he were here right now? He'd definitely kick an ass or two, that's what Aaron Donald would do.
Was this such a revelation  
Beer Man : 4/18/2014 9:55 pm : link

Here's a bold statement  
Kulish29 : 4/18/2014 11:42 pm : link
I fucking HATE Aaron Donald, and it's BBI's fault.
My vote is for Aaron Donald  
SHO'NUFF : 4/18/2014 11:55 pm : link
but better than Clowney???

ROFLMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Ok, not that far fetched...but NO. Seriously...

Kulish29 : 12:22 am : link
all on the same goddamn day, and I'd still loathe him, all thanks to the Aaron fucking Donald fan club that has inhabited BBI.
I heard Donald puts on his pants both legs at the same time while he

is doing backflips.
I am also going to make a bold statement about Aaron Donald.  
Gatorade Dunk : 12:54 am : link
In fact, two:

1) Capitalize the guy's name before you milk his prostate.

2) He doesn't fit the Giants' DT archetype. Get over it. He won't be their pick. No matter what. They'll take Lewan, Martin, Evans, Ebron, Barr and even Kouandjio before him. Book it.

People need to get over Aaron Donald. He's fantastic, but there's no way the Giants will draft him.
agree...as much as I would love him  
SHO'NUFF : 1:03 am : link
no way they will pick Donald...Kouandjio is the pick..the Giants love reaching for weird names.
I like Donald as an all around pass rusher  
SGMen : 1:14 am : link
You need guys like him to win in today's NFL.
Is it bad that I'm now rooting for Donald to fail?  
DeVito 32 : 2:43 am : link
I actually liked him at one point. But the amount of ridiculous posts about him and how everyone is blowing him on this site is driving me insane! I'm now hoping he's a bust so I can copy and paste and abuse all the obnoxious posters about Donald.

And now I finally realize how people growing up in NJ/NY  
DeVito 32 : 2:48 am : link
Can possibly grow up to be fans of other teams from another City. The amount of ridiculousness and obnoxiousness out of a fans mouth about a hometown team can make them go in another direction and root for their rivals... It's all clear to me now.
Ny/NJ fans are the best with no exceptions.  
wgenesis123 : 5:13 am : link
To suggest that our idiots and assholes are somehow more obnoxious than idiots and assholes in other areas seems quite peculiar to me. Its like thinking your shit don't stink! Yeh OK.

You misunderstood my post. I'm comparing how by everyone going nuts over Aaron Donald is making me root against him now to fail. It's like being a kid in our hometown area and somehow growing up to be a fan of the cowboys or redskins because either their father or friends were Giants fans and they were sick of hearing about them so they went in another direction. It was tongue in cheek bro, relax.

OK you think I got your meaning wrong, I'll give you that. I know people beat a dead horse around here on BBI, but alot of people also just complain, not saying thats you, I honesstly wouldn't know. We have way to much time to talk about the draft, its kind of inevitable that hot topics get to many threads. I would love for the complainers to put some new ideas out there in new threads. Someone will too, however most will focus on whats important to them. This year the top of that list is Donald. There will be many more Donald threads I fear and I am part of the grouyp that wants Donald.
I almost feel bad for Donald.  
Kid is now better than Clowney.

Knowing all the devoted Pitt fans here I'm so glad people can intelligently talk about this kid.
Donald will be there at 12

The Giants aren't stupid. I trust what they do with their 1st round pick.
