If Ruggs wasn't a blazer he very likely could be a 4th round guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's crazy to me that he's now being talked about as the first WR off the board, when nobody said that before the combine, definitely not during the actual NCAA season, and everyone knew he was going to run 4.2's at the combine. Jeudy even ran pretty fast. I don't get it. Edited March 28, 2020 by Jeezla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeudy even ran pretty fast. I don't get it. I think it was being discussed beforehand as people soured the on Jeudy due to exposure (being the top guy for so long) and everyone valuing speed so much. I feel like I had a conversation here a couple months ago about it. That speed receivers weren’t in abundance in this class. And he would get pushed up, especially if he did what he was supposed to at the combine. Ruggs’ skillset is really tempting to add, but I’d definitely be worried he’d bust far more than the other two. Optimistic hope is he flourishes in the pros where he can have a stronger armed QB and get more touches than what he had down in Bama.

TDTimes Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 The more I watch from Reagor, the less sense it makes to trade up for Ruggs IMO. Not quite as fast, but plenty fast. I would argue he’s just as polished as a WR and PR threat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite as fast, but plenty fast. I would argue he’s just as polished as a WR and PR threat I agree. I have Ruggs, Reagor and then Aiyuk in that order for that mold of receiver/returner. All great options and like you said, I really don't see the need to trade up. I'd be pretty upset if we trade up for anybody. We need these picks.

ninjapirate Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Tried to trade down on TDN to get more picks and all the top receivers were gone. But I think this mock turned out pretty good. 35. Patrick Queen LB LSU 53. Brandon Aiyuk WR ASU 103. Darnay Holmes CB UCLA 109. K'von Wallace S Clemson 127. Tyler Biadasz IOL Wisconsin 145. Isaiah Hodgins WR Oregon St. 146. A.J. Dillon RB Boston College 168. Justin Herron OT Wake Forest 190. Trevis Gipson Edge Tulsa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesFlySBChampsHigh Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Just did a predictive TDN draft no trades and Burrow went 20 and lamb ruggs and jeudy were all there at 21. Like wtf. Also got queen with 53 Edited March 29, 2020 by EaglesFlySBChampsHigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Ideally we trade down to like... 29, or trade up to like 14. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjapirate Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 what position actually helps us the most for next season? Probably a linebacker in the first right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah like a Patrick Queen. Which the more I think about it, the more I like it. With the caveat of an Aiyuk or Hamler being chosen at 53 or a trade up from 53 to net a WR.

A top end LB like Queen would make a difference for sure cause we suck there. But probably a day 3 RB is the most sensible for high return. How we rotate and how the position acclimates, one of those guys could very well have a large role in us winning a game or two. A warm body with hands better than Nelly (not too hard) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
