Claypool 

 

I’m glad I asked.   I might have gone with Bryant here, but he’d effectively be playing the same role as Claypool so I can’t do that.  Uche might end up playing a stand up role as a 3-4 OLB so I don’t think he fits that well.  Jennings would be a good pick and fit, but I like Pride and he’s a great fit for our Cover 3.  So give me the CB, Pride.

John Simpson.    Solid value, a good guy to groom for Spain's spot after this year.

 

Also, I can''t see Uche lasting to #86.    Jennings is a 4th round pick to me...

Why only 1 WR to choose from??? :doh:

Honestly probably shouldn't be up there at all. We took Claypool with the first pick. Between the Diggs play and Claypool, there's just no way we invest a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th round pick into WRs.

Uche. Bryant is just above him on my big board but we have a desperate need at edge.

I like Uche here a lot. He's got a bit of Yannick to him. You know, the guy everyone wants us to give up assets for and pay $20,000,000 per season?

Think of it as a test for the board lol

I just did a quick fanspeak mock draft just to see where these guys were ranked. 

 

John Simpson and Josh Uche both went in the early second round in that mock. 

 

I guess I'll pick one of those 2.

I’d take Antonio Gibson and put him at RB.

 

Since it’s not an option, I’d pick Uche or the best OT available.  I haven’t broken down many 3rd-4th rd OL prospects yet, so idk who I’d like.

 

i really hope Jennings isn’t the pick.  He’s a solid stout DE but I’d prefer the athleticism of Uche

Yeah, Uche is like a college version of Lorax. Michigan lined him up everywhere. Inside on the DL, on the edge, at LB dropping into coverage, the guy was all over that front, and he has 4.5 speed to go with it that you can see on tape. He's just undersized at like 245lbs.

Yeah he seems like the perfect replacement for him once he gets his accustomed to playing in space.  High upside SAM

I would be very happy with Edge, WR as our top two picks in the draft.  As a big Michigan fan I would be ecstatic if we draft Donovan Peoples Jones and Josh Uche in rounds 2 and 3 somehow.  Both are very talented players and excellent athletes.  They were certainly not the reason that Michigan has underwhelmed the past few years.  Blame that on a QB named Shae and a Head Coach named Jim.  I think both have a lot of upside (especially DPJ).  And their best football should be ahead of them.  Go Blue!  Go Bills.  DPJ is also good at returning punts if he doesn't let the ball just bounce by him, which happened several times at Michigan.

Jim hasn't got a clue once his rah rah effect wears off. Eventually he will have to... you know..... coach.

He will  do what he always does: Exhaust the people he works for with his hyper behavior. If you take too many sips of high octane expresso you end up with your nerves being jangled. When he predictably moves on after his obsessive and compulsive act wears thin the sensation is always the same for the bosses he worked for i.e. relief.

Yep. The Jose Mourinho of American Football. Only without the titles to back it up.

Harbaugh has been a big disappointment.  We didn't hire him to beat Maryland and Northwestern.  Team does not play with a lot of confidence against good teams.  Hopefully things get better this year with Shae Patterson gone.  Need a big time QB to be a big time program.  Our best QB under Harbaugh was Jake Ruddock in 2015 who came in as a 5th year grad transfer from Iowa.  Hopefully McCaffrey or Milton raise the team to a higher level.

His big game record as a Head Coach is not good. I always has him down as overrated. If you want a coach to take an underachieving bunch and make them competitive ring Jim Harbaugh. If you want a guy who can then take that team onto the next level to win? Fire Jim Harbaugh.

I did not pick him, but the more I think about it, I'm like Jalen Hurts, QB, Oklahoma, here. Who was it that said, you should pick a QB every year? He's been a winner, he's athletic--similar qualities as Josh A, he is the kind of player that could also be used in other roles--like Taysom Hill in NO.

 

Yeah, this idea is growing on me.

He's the only player remaining on all 3 or the big boards in the draft sheet
