Your one, and only one, draft hot take?


Recommended Posts

With the perceived lack of top end talent in round 1, team draft boards are all very different this year. This will lead to a TON of talk about teams "reaching" and many of the guys mocked in the 12-20 range will still be on the board when the Bills pick. This includes at least 1 of the top 4 mentioned QBs and wouldn't shock me to see either Levis or Richardson drop out of round 1 altogether.

All top 7 TEs are gone by the end of round 2. 
 

Mayer, Kincaid, Musgrave, Washington, LaPorta, Kraft, Schoonmaker. 

 

Interesting. I definitely have 6 going. Schoonmaker too would be an interesting development.

If you're right, will he be on the board at #60?

 

Yea in the event he gets there I think they'd take him. I am not saying he definitely will but if I have a controversial (at least on this board) thing that I think might happen tomorrow night, it is Campbell falling much further than people expect.

I don’t have any insight tbh but TEs in this game as we know have become vital. Once those top 6 come off there is a drop after 7 so I think someone reaches on schoomaker to make sure they get one of the top 7 compared to whoever they have at 8

With JSM long gone, Giants take Addison and the Chiefs trade up one spot ahead of us to take Flowers, leaving us with Johnson, who doesn't fit our needs, and three players who should be taken in the second-round: Hyatt, Downs, and Mims. 

 

I don't think that's the end of the world, since we could trade down and pick up a fourth or fifth. But a Hopkins trade would be imperative if we want to go all the way this year. Diggs, Hopkins, Downs, Davis, Shakir, Harty, Sherfield, along with Knox and one of the TE in the draft... I'll take that.

So I have the drop after 6 personally. I like Schoonmaker (I understand the Bills like him too fwiw) but I'm not sure I see a day 2 talent there. I think he is a day 3 guy. But I can see a team towards the end of round 2 or the very top of the 3rd having looked at this class and thought "we'll get a tight end in the second" going on the clock with 6 taken and reaching. It wouldn't be the first time.

Yes that’s what I see happening . I have Schoonmaker as a 3rd rounder so it makes more sense I guess with my ranking than yours

ONE of these top ranked players will slip to the bottom of round two or even to round 3.  It seems to happen every year.  Some round 1 talent takes an unexpected tumble.  Last year for example, Utah Linebacker Nakobe Dean who was graded on most sources as a 1st round prospect, tumbled to the third round.  I could see the same thing for SOMEONE on the list below.  I've bolded a few that could have a higher chance of slipping...

 

Christian Gonzalez CB OREGON

Nolan Smith ED GEORGIA

Calijah Kancey DI PITTSBURGH

Brian Branch S ALABAMA

Paris Johnson Jr. T OHIO STATE

Myles Murphy ED CLEMSON

Deonte Banks CB MARYLAND

Michael Mayer TE NOTRE DAME

Broderick Jones T GEORGIA

Jordan Addison WR USC

Anton Harrison T OKLAHOMA

Emmanuel Forbes CB MISS STATE

Lukas Van Ness ED IOWA

Tyree Wilson ED TEXAS TECH

Will McDonald IV ED IOWA STATE

O'Cyrus Torrence G FLORIDA

Dawand Jones T OHIO STATE
