whatdrought Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) With the 47th pick in the NFL draft, the Atlanta Falcons select Johnathan Taylor, RB, Wisconsin. Devonta Freeman is really not cutting it. Taylor is a workhorse who will allow us to become more balanced on offense, and will help ease the load on Matt Ryans aging shoulders. The pressence of a true threat in the backfield will help mask some of the holes on the offensive line and will allow Julio and Calvin to see less resistance. @Just Joshin' and the New York flying pile of dung (aka Jets) are on the clock.

We had to let coleman walk due to the money spent on Freeman. RB may not be the highest need, but getting rid of Freeman and grabbing a stud like Taylor works for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Joshin' Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 In round 1 the Jets secured an OT to protect Darnold. In round 2, it was down to Edge and WR. Michael Pittman has the size needed for red zone work but WR is deep and one can still be had in round 3. Rushers are harder to find and the pool is getting shallow. Thus, the Jets land the Edge rusher they should have drafted last year when they passed on the other Josh Allen. With the 48th pick, the Jets select Julian Okwara, Edge, Notre Dame. The Steelers @H2o are on the clock. @Virgil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all sides have gotten their point across now. How about some feedback for you @Virgil from a Panthers fan? Both your picks are commonly made for the Panthers but I think they don't really take on board the Panthers true needs. I'm biased on Simmons who is a great athlete who can play multiple positions on D, but is he really great at any of them? I think his value at college level won't translate to the NFL because he won't be used in the same way. I understand why you did it with Kuechly leaving but the Panthers gave a ridiculously rich contract to the average Shaq Thompson. They can't afford to overcommit to the LBs. I get it but don't like it. I really hate the second pick of Fromm. Cam won't leave because they won't be able to get a decent return for him. We picked a.third rounder last year the dreadful Grier, and Kyle Allen did remarkably well with what he was given. Despite that you want to move up for another pocket QB to stick behind our.god awful Oline? yuck. Carolina had historically bad run D this year. McCoy, Butler and Love are FA and the option won't be taken on Poe. They need Derrick Brown. BTW thanks for the work you put into this!

H2o Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 With the 49th pick, the Pittsburgh Steelers select KJ Hamler, WR, Penn St. The Bears @section122 are on the clock Washington came on a bit this year, but even before the injury you could see JuJu struggling without AB. Hamler is a WR in who you will immediately have to take into account because of his speed alone if nothing else. When I see him I think a Desean Jackson clone. This will open up the field for JuJu again and hopefully Washington continues to grow during this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simmons can play ILB, which is a huge need and he is the complete top tier of LB in the draft. I think he’s a stud and they’d be happy to have him drop. The QB pick is hard for me because I haven’t researched them much yet, but I can see Cam getting straight up released. There’s a lot of rumor of that. The Panthers could very well be doing a rebuild so I drafted with that in mind. They have their HB, MLB, WR, and possibly QB of the future, which is where most rebuilds start. I’m sure neither of these picks will happen, but it’s where I would go in those spots. 2 minutes ago, Reed83HOF said: Yeah - are we doing 3 rounds? - I lost track as well Just the two 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s a stud and they’d be happy to have him drop. You could be right. For me it's his versatility that made him special at Clemson and I can't see him being used like that in the NFL. I can see Cam getting straight up released. There’s a lot of rumor of that. Maybe, but he's a (relatively) cheap former league MVP. If you cut him the dead cap is minimal 2M and you save 17M but you are letting a 30 year old walk for zero comp. Fromm would get murdered behind our OL. Allen won in Texas and Tennessee and led a 4th quarter drive to the 1 yard line in a blizzard in Green Bay. In a way it doesn't matter because the Panthers are expected to be bad next year, but I don't know if Fromm would be an improvement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t see the logic in this. This feels like a personal want than an attempt to mock what Beane would actually do. Cant see any scenario where Beane trades up for Ruggs. Nothing against him, he’s a heck of a prospect, but he’s not even the consensus best WR on the board there. Note: I see from comments at current last page of this thread this has apparently been discussed a lot. So don’t feel obliged to reply. I was just floored with the unrealistic nature of this trade.

GunnerBill Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 (edited) With the 51st pick of the 2020 NFL Draft the Dallas Cowboys select Jaylon Johnson, Cornerback, Utah. The Los Angeles Rams and @CNYfan are now on the clock. With their first two selections in this draft the Cowboys have selected two day 1 starters in the weakest area of their roster - the secondary. I think he will test well at Combine and he is athletic and physical profile of a modern outside corner. His tackling in run support and his patience and discipline in zone both need some work but in a corner class that lacks depth and drops off quickly after the top few guys I can see Johnson as a late riser who comes off the board sooner than people expect.

Davis isnt a top notch pass rusher but we are not drafting him to be. I'm assuming we resign chris jones and we have frank clark. We need davis to disrupt the middle cause havoc. He has power, very versatile and is a freakish athlete at 6-7 315 lbs. We need him to clog middle and stop run.

The Denver Broncos are now on the clock @bkep32 Philly loves they can answer on of their top needs with a top end player at 53. Patrick Queen projects well as a starting linebacker in the NFL — he's got the sideline to sideline range to step into a MIKE role and has the impact in pass coverage to serve as a three down linebacker — a critical blend that should significantly help boost his value. Queen isn't a thud linebacker and excels most when he's afforded free range to scrape and flow, but his football IQ does allow him to beat blockers to the spot.
