This QB class appears weak right now...but surely QB's will rise on the board as they typically do. Could that setup for a slight trade up for GB to take their EDGE while any of those teams could trade down for their QB? Or...could any of those teams really covet GB's second first round pick and wish to move up from the second for it, while trying to acquire their next QB? Love the position GB is in. Gonna be a fun draft season. No. Jacksonville and New York are competing over Dwayne Haskins, but if you're not really interested in taking the second QB at 6/7, it's probably not any better at 12.

But...if you want one, our first pick does get you ahead of the Redskins, right? And if not at #12 (for a QB), how about our second first round pick?

They won't be a real team until about 2022. http://www.optimumscouting.com/news/the-nfls-need-for-middle-class-quarterback-contrac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacman5252 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I hope Kyler goes in the draft class. I doubt he'll go top 12 being 5'10'' and with one year of tape. He'd definitely be in play for teams at the back of the first (maybe we trade our second one back another year and pick up a third this year).

My point was that if you're comfortable taking a QB at 12, then you'd be comfortable taking one at 6/7 if you missed out on Haskins. Which QB are you going to take there? Kyler Murray? Drew Lock? If you're not comfortable taking a QB at 6/7, 12 really isn't all that much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter has us taking: 1.12: Clelin Ferrell (DE/OLB Clemson) 1.32: Jonathon Abram (Safety, Miss St) This pick was originally Parris Campbell but he changed it to Abram. Id actually be okay taking Parris with this pick. Dudes dynamic. 2.44: Jerry Tillery (NT/DE Notre Dame.) Hell yes! 3.75: Chase Winovich (DE/OLB Michigan) Dont know much about him but another body on the edge is always good. 4.107: Logan Parker (TE Southern Utah) I suppose im okay with this. i think there will be better TE's available at this spot but TE is a need so i like that. 4.111: David Long (LB WVU) another body on defense. Thats 4 picks to fix the front 7. i love it. as long as a free agent S is added i think this is a great draft. My only gripe would be that theres no lineman taken with those first 6 picks. Quality players for sure. I doubt though with a new offensive HC and deficiencies at OL, WR/TE we wait until round 4 to improve the O (unless we bring in help in FA).

I doubt though with a new offensive HC and deficiencies at OL, WR/TE we wait until round 4 to improve the O (unless we bring in help in FA). Would be a mistake to expect the new coach to function with a less talented offense than the one they gave McCarthy last season. I don't think he's going to have a very long leash so he needs to hit the ground running. I'd hate for him to be set up for failure by not giving him the tools he needs to win football games. He's a HC not a magician. They need to be balanced in both the draft and in Free Agency when it comes to improving this team. There needs to be upgrades on offense, defense and ST using both avenues. the days of this team completely ignoring the offense with the premiere draft positions needs to be over because it's clearly caught up to the offense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
