Tour2ma Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 My thoughts on my drafts is I thought my Titans draft was better than my Buccs one Agree... but you set high bar with your TN work. Great first round, there... and solid throughout with the possible exception of McDermott, who I think is a stiff. And it's not as if your TB draft sucked... at the top is both talented and need-meeting. The value at the bottom is just not as high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 Haha it's the #6 pick that I can't get past !! And understandably so... QBs picked, or passed over, will be the primary source of controversy this draft. In my case... I keep coming back to Watson as the top prospect in this draft because I do not see "49 mph" when I watch his tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've really fallen for Kizer now, I see flashes an traits in him you don't see often. Can accuracy be improved, I believe so with a coach that helps you set your feet etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAg1969 Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 Of all those teams I like the picks for San Francisco and the Browns the best, though I'd have to give the nod to the SF GM for teaming up Allen with Williams again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darren15 Posted April 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 I like San Fran ....... I like my first 5 Titans picks but the last 2 were meh .....I took BPA with Buccs then addressed their RB and Safety needs....other 3 picks were average at best Would be thrilled with the Browns first 6 picks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 So I done good as our GM? Please let Sashi know... I really could not believe the way the top eleven picks went. I mean 2 RBs and 2 WRs? Plus a couple of Edge I don't see that high... They are all really good players and most filled significant needs for the teams that took them, but to leave Thomas, Hooker, Foster, Reddick and Howard on the board? It was just mind-boggling. I was like the proverbial kid in a candy-store. By far it was the toughest pick I made and I knew it would be the most controversial. I mean every position represented was a "need" for us. In the end BPA ruled this pick. Much of my 90-minute delay in posting the pick was spent looking closer at Solomon Thomas as I'd not looked hard at him thinking he'd be gone by pick #4. What I saw quickly confirmed everything the profiles, rankings and mocks were saying: that he was a top three talent in this draft. So I could not pass him by... even with Ogbah around... even with Nassib's promise... even with Garrett in my pocket. Knew Thomas' pick would draw scrutiny, if not outright criticism... and that's not even considering the Trubs-or-bust devotees, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do... In the end I kept asking myself, "Would I want to be a QB facing a Garrett - Sheldon - Bryant - Thomas DL?" That plus the old... Front2Back&InsideOut...

Zombo Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Because there isn't a pro bowl QB in every draft? Reaching is the worst thing we could do If you don't have a QB, reach for one. There are not pro Bowlers every year at #12 or #33 at any position. If we don't trade for someone like Garappolo or Cousins, and we don't take a stab at one of the highest rated QBs ... that would make us a gay organization. We're going after a QB.

mjp28 Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 From a SB nation mock draft, another kid from Ohio besides OHIO STATE and a reason why my Alma Mater Youngstown State made the 1-AA championship game...... 31. Atlanta Falcons: Derek Rivers, DE, Youngstown State If Atlanta hopes to make another Super Bowl run, it needs its young defense to play more like it did late in the year in 2016. Adding more talent would help it get there, and Rivers is the type of edge rushing talent that fits perfectly at the LEO position in Dan Quinn’s defense. Yeah big homer pick for me.

Oh to finish my homerish pick Rivers went 3rd round #83 to NE their 1st pick and a steal plus the highest Penguin since Jaws Jaworski 2nd #37 in 1973 back in my YSU undergrad days, oh I'm almost exactly 6 months older than Ron. And YSU DE Avery Moss went to the NYG 5th round #167, first set of drafted Penguins ever. See what Pelini as coach and a trip to the D-1-AA Championship Game will do for you.
