Raves Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 So the 1st round is over, our 1st pick will potentially be made today. Any thoughts on this? There are still several very good WRs available in DK Metcalf, Parris Campbell, AJ Brown and more. I wouldn't be surprised if Payton decides to trade up in the 2nd to try and get his preferred WR.

I'd be fine with a trade-up for someone they view as an impact maker, not a project or high-ceiling-low-floor type guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Saint Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I'll probably in the minority, but I wouldn't mind staying put and taking BPA. I'm real tired of going into drafts missing 2nds or 3rds or 4ths etc etc. In terms of players, I'm down to take an OT we can develop to replace Armstead. We've seen what a sub-par O-line does to our offense. Another position is an off-ball LB. Anzalone is great, but having another LBer who can cover would be a god send (Pratt from NC state is still there). Obviously the WR talent is still plenty.

sammymvpknight Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I wouldn’t trade up unless a special talent falls...too much WR depth still on the board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raves Posted April 27, 2019 Author Share Posted April 27, 2019 Not quite who I thought we would trade up for, but considering he was one of the best centers in the draft definitely a good pickup. Will give both depth and potentially a starter for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Saint Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Well didn't see that one coming. Easton was signed to play C, so I guess C this year, replace Peat next season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering how often our OL is injured, this is just a better back-up at C at a minimum for when Armstead/Peat/Warford go down and we have to shuffle.

Saint_Anger13 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 OL depth isn’t bad. I just hope somehow we can swing H. Butler and D. Williams! 🙏🏼 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not horrible if they get someone solid in the 4th this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dome Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Erik is a great pick. Easton had an absurdly low guaranteed amount... $4m guaranteed over the entire contract.... so we’re not attached to him at all tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t be surprised to see McCoy starting at C and Easton a backup or competing with Peat at LG this year, maybenot week 1.... but this job isn’t just gonna be given to Easton IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlowe22 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 As we found out the hard way this year, can't have too much o-line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
