  1. I think Beane knew that Davis and Diggs had become too easy to cover. Teams could send db's on the blitz (Cinci playoff and KC under Spagnola) without paying. The next steps are guys who can make a defense respect them and open up space for the offense particularly the TE.  One of the speed guys like Mitchell will make the corners move back. Samuel has wheels too. If they double up at wr, someone who beats man coverage like McConkey is intriguing.    

  2. My guess is DT. A lasting memory of the Cinci home playoff beatdown is Ed Oliver being pushed 5 yards backwards in the snow by the Cinci Oline. I the weather and injuries were factors but I think they add a big strong defensive tackle that can be rotated in in the event that situation comes up again. Gervon Dexter is the guy if he is still on the board. 

     

    I don' think Bergeron makes it to 59. They have the hole at LB so if Sanders or Henley are there maybe they go that route.

     My mock based on who was available at each pick in the draft.  Thoughts on these selections?

    Flowers is highly thought of, some good wheels and catches everything. Schmitz probably goes higher than 57 after Senior Bowl. Robinson is very good.

  4. I think Bernard was drafted to develop behind Matt Milano as he missed games the prior 2 seasons with hamstring issues. Bernard had good speed, was a captain and academic all american. He likely checked a few "process guy" boxes. My concern with Bernard and a few others is they are too light and get exposed against the run. I am pretty sure he sticks a couple more seasons as he develops.

  5. Myers is not happening. 

     

    Spotrac, which analyzes contracts for major sports leagues, projects Jokobi Meyers to land a contract with an annual average salary of $12.5 million. This website uses past contracts of comparable players to come up with someone’s market value. They compare Meyers to the likes of Allen Robinson, Corey Davis, Jarvis Landry and Terry McLaurin and project he has a market value around a four-year, $50 million contract.
