Don’t care what anyone says... the guy looks lost running around. He runs around like one of those 8 year old girls playing soccer...
Basically, his footwork is total crap, but if Kromer can fix that, he’s got other skills to be really good inside.
NO WAY does he have the feet to play outside in the NFL.
Noteboom looks like Fred Astaire compared to Bobby Evans.
I like him inside. I like him after a year of working on his footwork.
If he’s supposed to be the Whitworth replacement...I don’t like the pick...at all.
Must be Stockholm Syndrome. He's thinking back to the Jeff Fisher days and thinking he has to collect 8 low round players to try and find a starter.
That trade-back in the 2nd round was...man, I was clearly in the camp against trading out of the 1st round, but trading out of that 2nd round pick with Greedy AND McCoy still on the board...good god. The Rapp pick was confusing, too. He's the kind of guy who tackles really solidly...because he has to, because he lets the receiver get the ball first.
Thanks for posting this thread OS. My time has been really limited lately and this thread is exactly what I was hoping someone would post.Big day! Started out with a few picks. Traded a bunch of times and got a few different picks
Taylor Rapp S Washington
Looks to be the eventual successor to Weddle and in the mean time will likely be the 3rd safety in those sets that Wade loves to put 3 out on the field. Can't help but feel this guy immediately upgrades our secondary.
Darrell Henderson RB Memphis
Playmaker! Looks to be depth behind Gurley and company. I'm betting he takes over return duties and we part ways with Natson who provided almost nothing outside of returns.
David Long CB Michigan
Might be my favorite pick! It's no secret I think we were in need of young talent at this position. Has the ability to play right now in the secondary and could succeed Talib when he's done. I also don't think this is the end of CB picks for us.
Bobby Evans T/G Oklahoma
Not somebody that was on many if any radars around here. Also the only player we drafted that we didn't work out. From what we're seeing and reading looks like the arch type Kromer Guard. Big strong and mean which could mean he's a bench guy this year and takes over for Noteboom next year or Blythe?
So what do you guys see for tomorrow? My list is simple. Another CB I think it's necessary as the talent behind the starters IMO is lacking. Edge with Fowler signed to one year it would possibly be somebody to compete with a pick next year and Obo. A G/C again we're likely needing 2 guards this year and the front offices MO is to draft for next year. Potentially an ILB with Littleton only signed to the 1 year tender and he could with another good year get signed to a fat raise. WR? We likely have our return specialist but depth is never a bad thing. And QB, Bortles signed to 1 year and who's behind him?
Thoughts?
I'm sure its changed with this trade upThanks hotazez for the update!!!
Wren's a better fit than Saunders IMO.
Sorry Pop I don’t think you are keeping up with the thread. You would be correct if Snead trades down down down but he now has the capital to trade up down and all around in the all important rounds 2 3 and 4. I bet he trades up in round 2 if his tier 2 picks start fading.
Yeah, and the Giants traded back into the first round specifically for him.I think they had their eye on Lawrence, probably Simmons too. Get that NT done right out the gate or move down and use the draft to its strengths.
And I'm ticked that Baker went off right in our faces. That dude is gonna be an excellent player.
As you know, the league allows the Patriots to routinely break rules.
Gd iPhone should read 2019 or 2020 starters.I under
I understand the initial disappointment in not getting a stud at R1.31 but what do you think contributes to the starter success %s in R2 and R3 that you provided. It’s selecting the right players into the right positions and coaching them up for success. It remains to be seen but I believe the Rams have a very good chance of manuevering thru the R2 and R3 available and finding 3 2029 or 3030 starters. That’s much better than having one stud starter from a draft.
That's an understatement.Giants not having a good draft IMHO.
Rams did sign Interior LB'er Clay Matthews. He has been posted up inside for several seasons now & recently said he prefers to play inside.
If ILB'er Delvin Bush is on the board when Snead is ready to pick @ #31 high probability the Rams take him. If David Long is on the board @ 3rd/ #99 he will get a good look over. In the 5th rd #169 pick is where Jahlani Tavai would be a great selection. That my 2 cents worth.
After the dust of the draft has settled thats when we might see Bryce Hager's name come up if there has been no selection of an ILB'er. .
I believe the Senior element is a bigger clue than the private meeting......
Top 10 imo
Love your trade, will be stoked if we can pull that off. Moving up in the 3rd would be huge
Great first pick, but am not high on Polite. I think he goes 2 rounds later. Strangely enough, I think Singletary will go earlier than late 3rd - depending on whether other RBs go higher
I have been on board with Nasir at FS for a long time, because he is an impact player, but there will be other good prospects available, so it will be interesting to see how it plays out. FS, MLB, OG/C and CB are our biggest needs, so your draft, while great value, looks a little unbalanced this year Jrry
You knocked it out the park last year, so I will watch with interest
On the pig feathers bbq.Cheers . Where's my crow?
