Hyperborean Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 1 minute ago, RpMc said: 2nd and 3rd round rookies, absolutely Given the plug and play ability of rookie runningbacks, the team would be just fine if they let Cook walk after the season and drafted a back next year. Drafting one with a top 100 pick this year would be a gross mismanagement of assets given the youth injection and starting caliber players this team needs and positions that are much more important. To each their own, though. "Gross Mismanagement" is Rick Spielman's nickname in my household. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisplacedViking Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Want: Let the draft come to them, don't trade up in the 1st round, and pick the BPA that is either an OT, WR, 3-TECH, Edge, or CB. Do the same thing at 25 except don't double down on the same position drafted at 22. Don't want: Reach at 22 or 25 just to select a specific position. If needed, trade up in subsequent rounds to select a given player at a needed position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc_vikingfan Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Want Ruggs. Ruggs is just a player that every time he has the ball you feel like he can score. Haven't had that since Harvin/Patterson. Also in a conservative offense, you need that electric player. Kinlaw - because of during the Zim era we haven't had a real 3tech outside of Richardson and even he never got home. This has made me realize I took Kevin Williams for granted and tired of seeing opposing QB's constantly step up. Hamler- Same type of game-breaking ability Winfield Jr- This is for just the joy of seeing him in purple. He's a playmaker and his father was beloved. As much as I like Harris he is 29 Don't want- DE AJ he's slow and disappears for stretches WR in the 1st that's not the Top 3- I like Mims and Higgins but can get a similar player later ala Hamler. Double dip CB's or WR in the first 2 rounds S Delpit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Kinlaw is my #1 draft crush right now. I'd love to see us get him, but as others have said, he will probably go fairly early. My #2 player is Denzel Mims. This is a real "mixed emotions" scenario, because I know we would probably be better off going with another position of need in the first round, but I REALLY want to see him in purple. I could try and hope for a trade up in the second round, but I just don't see him falling out of the first. The absolute worst-case scenario would be to watch us pass on him and then see the Packers take him at #30. Nothing that happens on draft day could be worse, IMO.

RpMc Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I've seen this floating around on twitter, and it's in this same vein; go back to the 2015 NFL draft and go the way you would have wanted it to go. 2019 Drafted - Garrett Bradbury Wanted - Garrett Bradbury 2018 Drafted - Mike Hughes Wanted - Austin Corbett 2017 Drafted - Trade for Sam Bradford Wanted - Jabrill Peppers 2016 Drafted - Laquon Treadwell Wanted - Robert Nkemdiche 2015 Drafted - Trae Waynes Wanted - Devante Parker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Plissken Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 There is nobody likely available (Thomas, Henderson, Kinlaw) at 22 or 25 I would pound the table for. I would be content with a combination of OT (Jones, Jackson), DE (Chaisson, YGM) or CB Fulton, Gladney, Terrell, etc.). I could be okay with one of Blacklock or Jefferson/Mims. Would prefer to wait on S and WR. Don’t believe any IOL is worth 22 or 25. LB would be a misuse RB And TE would not be on the board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
