Sims quote

Mike (Minnapolis): Hey Ernie, What are you planning on wearing Draft Day, A nice suit? How about a Vikings Jersey. . .?

Ernie Sims: That's real funny. I'm just going to chill with my family at home. Hopefully I will be wearing a Minnesota jersey though.

Thats what i like to hear, especially if we dont trade up to take a qb, i think Sims would be a great fit for the cover 2.

**LLBalla19** · 04-26-2006, 02:42 AM

Yup
I'm really wanting this guy I saw him play in real life and he is outstanding i would never choose greenway over him.Greenway is good but,having the chance to get a Derrick Brooks type player for our COVER 2 would be perfect.

I think if we picked Ernie Sims he would either win defensive rookie of the year or be close to winning it. Perfect fit in our D.

I don't think we can draft him, because he is staying in school!

Drew (Lexington): Did you struggle with the decision to leave FSU early to enter the draft?

Ernie Sims: It was a tough situation. If I stayed an extra year, I think I could have been a top 5 draft pick. But if I stayed, I could have run the risk of getting injured. So, I decided to stay.

He didn't specify what minnesota jersey... maybe he is thinking of signing with the twins!

He's a great player, but he's also had 5 or so concussions in college. The reason he left school to enter the draft is because he was worried about getting another, potentially career ending, concussion. I'm a little concerned about this and wonder if he is up to dishing out the hits that would be required of him at the next level.

My vote goes to Greenway.
