Glad Wallace and numerous other UDFA didnt think this way. -
Healthy Skepticism for This Year's Draft Class...
Turbo44 replied to glazeduck's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The kicker wasn’t great last year though, 20-28 on fgs. He does have a ridiculous leg though. If you haven’t seen his no step 50 yard field goal or 1 step 60 yarder, google it jackson is an outside corner, has never played the inside nickel corner role. Beane said as much today -
Love that they doubled down on WR in this draft

I think this is correct except Diggs can replace what mck does. I think injury to one of these guys is the only way Duke of Foster makes this team -

Eason looks like a bit of a meat head to me and remember he left Georgia when he lost his job to Fromme. I don’t expect him to amount to much. yeah I hear you on the oline - just never seemed to have ones with good grades when we ended up picking. Maybe the UFA we signed will amount to something. I’m higher overall on our oline than most. In think a second year with continuity and a 2nd year for Ford will help a lot. -

Moss isnt a breakaway threat but he is faster than Singletary. He had a hamstring issue at the combine so his 4.62 time should be discounted. 4.52 at his pro day is decent. Not great but decent. Fromm, if anything, will be a good classroom guy with Josh. Georgia coaches said they regularly had to throw him out of the building late at night (studying film). i studied the draft more than usual with time on my hands, plus with no 1st I wanted to know more about the later round guys. When we were on the clock I actually predicted 3 of the first 4 picks correctly- Espenesa and moss were no brainers and I took a flyer on Fromme and got lucky. In the 4th I guessed Golden-Gandy so at least go the position correct. Was thrilled with the Hoskins pick as I thought he was a late 3rd/early 4th talent but had no clue they’d draft a 2nd wr. -

I trust Beane. Some random thoughts: 0 fumbles for Moss last year and best broken tackle % of any back since 2014. Works for me. your D+ rated 7th rd pick Was the 8th rated CB in the draft and his coach said he was the best CB he has ever had. I’ll take that in the 7th Hoskins had the best 20 yd split time at the combine and the lowest drop % of any wr in college last year. Works for me Fromme - who knows and the lack of a normal training camp will hurt him but he will make the roster and probably take over as backup for Barkley as backup next year. That’s good use of a 5th- 116 replies

J I could see McKenzie making it but not Duke. The two draft picks give us the size Duke has, equal speed but with much better hands. I don’t think Roberts is 100% safe either. The other thing to consider is injuries can occur -

I think they both make the roster this year. Rosters are expanded, 4th rounders (Gabe) don’t get cut to PS and I think Hoskins would be grabbed but another team if moved to PS. Limited training camp will hurt them though -
I get what everyone is saying but I disagree in that I was really impressed with the draft. Without a 1st I did a lot more Deeper research than usual and was impressed with the values Beane got, especially with Epenesa, fromme and hodgins

gabriel was out running routes 30 minutes after he was done with draft interviews (about an hour after being drafted) hodgins led all wrs in 20 sprint time and drop %. Not deep speed but at 6’4” with great hands he’ll be a red zone threat -

Yep except Turk would have a legitimate shot of making the team. Sills was so overwhelmed he didn’t even make our practice squad -
I agree- I wanted him (or Gandy) when we were picking Gabe and was shocked and thrilled when we took him in the 6th. These gms seem to be influenced so much by combine numbers and stats and he had the best 20 sprint time and lowest drop % of all wrs in the draft. That combined with great stats and a 6’4” frame makes it baffling to me that he lasted late into the 6th. I know his 4.6 40 is blah but he obviously is quick off the line and had size and ridiculous hands. Our win hopefully
-
He wasn’t available at 58, we took him at 54. In all seriousness, sometimes these teams let combine numbers influence them too much. As they say, “the tape doesn’t lie.” ironically our 6th rd pick hodgins should have been bumped up by the stats crowd. With his 20 yard spirit time (best of any WR at the combine and one of the best of all time) and his drop % of around 1%, again best of any wr, we may have got a 6’4” steal

Rd 5, Pick 167: QB Jake Fromm, Georgia
Turbo44 replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Watching his Netflix show and like the pick even more. Great kid but a competitive sob. Will be a great backup to Josh. Probably will be 3rd string this year and take over for Barkley next year -
It’s a good watch. Martell is ridiculously athletic but never made anything of himself at Ohio state/Miami from is ridiculously competitive- his younger brother Tyler (TE at Auburn now) is the better athlete and is 6’5” now

Ha - related, the Netflix series with Fromm in it in his senior year in Hs is pretty cool. Looks like the same as he does now and he’s a competitive sob. Very likeable though -

Yeah I’d yell if we signed Turk, but trust Beane -

Maybe he thinks he has something in Vedvik?? After researching, 44.0 avg in his senior year and maybe can get better when fully concentrating on punting? He’s a huge dude too, 6,4” 220ish and would be the kickoff guy too if Hauskhe remains The kicker -

That’s a problem for Fromm as he thanked Jesus in his intro interviews, basically said God has a plan for him and, no matter what, has a place for heaven for him. Said this right after he said he can’t wait to fish and hunt in buffalo. Too funny -

Matt Talbot reported Bills have talked to Turks agent but at this time are happy with the two guys they have. Maybe the K/P guy who’s concentrating on punting has got better?? -

He’s still unsigned. I personally would sign him and release the other guy, but doesn’t seem like Beane’s way. turk: 46 yards per punt bloodlines - Dad Matt punted in the NFL for 17 years and irrelevant but still impressive: 4.79 40 time and 25 reps on the bench. pretty surprised he hasn’t signed with anybody as of yet Not a bad idea. Does he have a twitter account? -
Rd 7, pick 239 (from vikes): CB, Dane Jackson, Pitt
