Honestly if he’s there at 15 I don’t think that would be a bad pick. Three thoughts: If it lines up that way, I would definitely investigate what it would cost to jump up to 11 to snag Devin White. Kind of surprised went Hockenson over Fant, who performed better at the combine. Is there something to the tape as to why TJ over Noah that I'm not aware of (pre-Combine mocks all had Fant higher, as I recall)? I wonder if Greedy Williams would be a better choice than either of the TEs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hockenson is both a receiving threat and probably the best blocking TE in the draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interview thing is getting out of hand now. Players draft stock have been tanked based off of stuff like this and a lot of times it ends up being crap.

As I said, the interview process is the single most important part of the Combine (close second is the medical checks). Unfortunately for us fans, it's a completely opaque process that only gets dribbles of information out, including potentially derogatory information to deflate someone's value.

This would allow us to move on from Norman the season after and give us a lockdown corner for seasons to come. Which I would prefer over a play making tight end.

turtle28 Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I'll be extremely disappointed if we take a TE in round 1 over every other position except 3-4 DE & OT. I want nothing to do with drafting a TE early in the draft given our deficiencies in some many other spots on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSkinGM Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I'm starting to think we need to pick a R B somewhere rounds 2 or 3 . I'm not at all convinced Guice will be anywhere near what he was. He had 4 or 5 surgeries on that knee. The initial repair and 3 or more others for infections.. I really hope A D / A P isn't brought back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylor made Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Hockenson is gonna be a stud. I think he's a safe draft pick too. He's not atop my board, but he's in the top 10. We can't continue to rely on Reed as anything more than a #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope A D / A P isn't brought back. This running back draft class kind of sucks though. Our offense needs weapons and the draft is loaded at WR. I'd much rather go that direction. I do like Mike Weber in the 2nd and Justice Hill in the 4th Round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope A D / A P isn't brought back. I can understand maybe making a play for a RB, but in Day 3 only. If they had their fourth round pick, I could maybe see taking a RB with 3.32(*) (96th overall). However, since they don't and thus don't pick again until 5.15 (153rd overall), that doesn't make any sense to spend at a position they nominally have guys at of equivalent value to that late round pick. (*) The Giants used their 3rd in the 2018 Supplemental draft so there are only 31 natural picks in the third round, hence Washington has the 32nd.

I could easily see it happening because theres not much hype to the rbs this year. 2 of the 3 could be there by our natural 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdog44 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I can see the need to bring in a fast back to eventually take over for Chris Thompson but I don’t think this is the year. There’s too many holes to fill and with Guice,AP and Thompson they should be ok there, assuming health. If there’s a guy in the later rounds that can also return kicks that could work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or instead of a decent corner or safety? Cannot say I'm all that interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
