Yes I'm being dramatic and I like Cooks for us, but as a draft geek I just felt like I got robbed. lol
So the obvious glaring holes are on D now ... and I'm giving up my OT position this year because it makes no sense to draft it given the quality of the class next year. I have 5-7 first rounders next year coming down the pipe ...
So, here we go
3) Kemoko Turay rOLB ... super talented kid a little raw ... but not as raw as Ebukam last year. Note .. if Okoronkwo or Sweat makes it here I draft them.
4) Micah Kiser/Josey Jewell ... one should be there. I like both.
4) Will Clapp Interior lineman ... can play OC. Ready to play if someone goes down and ready to take over next year on the interior. Austin Corbett is also in play here.
4) Nyeim Hines/Jaylen Samuel RB ... backup and pass catcher. One should be there.
6) Devonte Lumpkin/Khalil McKenzie NT True NT at 6-2 340 jumped early and didn't get a combine invite.
6) Saeed Blacknall/Javon Wims WR like both, height weight speed guys with asterisks
6) Ryan Izzo/Durham Smythe TE Carrier role players who could develop.
6) Davin Bellamy/Ben Neimann ... severely underrated LBs that cold slide .. Neimann didn't even get a combine invite ... so rude.
Okay so ... I feel like this could keep us on track.
Notable exceptions ... a trade up for Crosby? I can't see him getting out of round 2. Tony Adams has been linked to us ... so he may be a 6th round pick and our 4th may be spent someone where other than Clapp.
And my favorite "wait don't forget" Is Ike Boettger the OT from Iowa who was injured this year ...
Thoughts and comments welcome.
I appreciate all your work. I can tell you put some thought into it.
If we get Kemoko Turay in the 3rd, I'd be pretty happy no matter how the rest turns out.
That said, I would have a different approach. I'd focus on Edge rushers, OL depth, and one ILB rather than spreading the love around to all positions.
Something like:
3)
Kemoko Turay rOLB
4a)
Jamarco Jones OT ... I think he has starter potential at both LT and RT.
4b)
Jeff Holland OLB/Edge ...
4c)
Micah Kiser / Josey Jewell ILB...
6a)
Tony Adams Interior lineman ...
6b)
Geron Christian OT
6c-d) More interior lineman
I'd double down on edge defenders and saturate the OL depth to increase the chances we get a real player or two at those positions.
What's your feelings on Geron Christian? I noticed you had him last (player 150?) in your big board you posted last night.
