klos63 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Ok, it's not really necessary to add the 'special teams' tag on anyone drafted that doesn't project as a starter. We all know how it works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, wait, we have John Brown who will probably get injured or the little white guy from Dallas. Wait a minute, we have Duke Williams, the miracle man from Canada!!!

And yet he couldn’t be kept off the field on a very good team. Just gotta trust McD on this one. He is a DB whisperer. TW, MH, JP, EJG, Levi Wallace, Taron Johnson - great track record with DBs.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Slow. Small. Religious. Waste of a pick but at this point these are all marginal guys. No WR or pass rusher to develop yet.

They really aren't that vital after the kicker. The rules have made returns rare and you can find a #6 WR or #10 DB anywhere to play on teams.

Grab two top notch kickers (I’m fine paying for them!) and don’t fumble returns or allow blocked kicks and you are a solid special teams. No ones winning games with returns or coverage. This one just feels a bit like proehl last year. Don’t love it but oh well. Rare to love a guy this late. Edited April 27, 2019 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true. What's also true, is that we do not have a genuine #1 WR. What isn't true, is that you pick those guys up all the time, most of the way through day 3 of the draft.

HappyDays Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I figured they'd go with special teams players in the 6th and 7th rounds. It's been a big focus the whole offseason. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh, would rather just flip the 6th for a 5th next year if the guy just isn’t gonna make the cut (which I don’t think this guy will, barring injury). Cutting picks is a complete waste.
