The following "best" options are available. Who are we taking? See poll. Assume if they aren't listed, they got drafted (or I forgot).

Superb athlete. And he needs some coaching, but not many coaching staffs have more minds that can coach up a LB than ours, with Rivera and JDR and Sam Mills (in addition to the actual LB coach, who I’ve honestly never heard of). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylor made Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I like Dye but we seem to have a ton of LB depth already. And at this point of the draft we are drafting for depth. Neither Moreau or Darby are gonna play all 16 games. I think you have to choose the CB prospect here. Our young CB's - Danny Johnson, Greg Stroman and Adonis Alexander never really developed.

But Ive seen places and scouts having Dye ranked up with the best LBs this class. Plus what Ive seen I cant argue it. The value + potential to be a star is just outweighing the other options. Though I will say. If we traded all our picks after this one. For the spot behind it (4-143) and took Reggie. Id be happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripsean21 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Dye is the easy selection. Super good tool box and has a nose for the ball as E said needs to be coached. I’m trying to not knock Oregon but I like Herbert and Dye and I think neither were done any favors for what I think they needed to progress. But I think both will do well in the league 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what Ourlads has as our depth chart https://www.ourlads.com/nfldepthcharts/depthchart/WAS from seeing this in writing, this is scary- I see our major needs as OL, TE, WR and sure we have other needs too.. Sure we could use help at LB, but if we don't fix the line we are going to need a lot more quarterbacks than we currently have now. I still think we draft Chase at 2, but if we don't go with the best OL or TE at 3 and both 4's I'm going to be disappointed. The key thing I am looking to see is how much the younger guys improve with better coaching, but with COVID, how are they going to improve this year? All argues to trade Trent for a 2 or 3 this year, or a 2 next year, trade Kerrigan (it pains me to write this) and tank this year- start fresh next year.

naptownskinsfan Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 @Doc Draper I guess I don't see TE as the big need that everyone things. Sure, it would be nice to have one, but I don't think it's going to make a huge difference this coming season. Meanwhile, our entire LB corps will be learning something new, and by and large, we have guys who are situational. I'd like to get a three-down guy, which Dye fits. The draft class for TE's is garbage this year, and the FA class outside of setting a new record and overpaying for Austin Hooper was also garbage. You can only fix so many needs in one year, and TE probably gets the short straw this year because of the lack of good talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 (edited) I picked Dye and I like him a lot. Do I think he's a definite upgrade over some of the guys we have now? No, no I don't. I don't know how you can call Dye a 3-down LB but not call SDH for example a 3-down LB. Edited April 18, 2020 by turtle28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from injuries, he hasn't even started a game in two years. That should tell you how confident the coaches were in him to play successfully in the early downs.

That's bc the former coaches didn't know how to use him. The former coaches aren't here anymore. I think SDH will be the LB that shows most for our new coaches. Beyond that though, I don't think Dye is a major upgrade over any of the LBs I have. He has some of the same question marks as Cole Holcomb does.
