Not sure if people watched him play or just looked at his photo… Not sure I call him a A+ run defender From memory he is not as quick as ngata not as strong. As far as film he went to Baylor so there Is a lot of film. That said could not find any film him beating the living crap on any nfl guard or center.

He is going to be a good starting nickel for somebody, I think that’s good value at this point in the draft. The height limitations obviously limit the upside.

I wouldn’t expect him to be the type of guy we’d look at. We’ve always had a backup with a similar skill set to our starter under Stefanski, I’d expect that to continue. I’m guessing they’d want someone with more mobility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have a starter grade on McKee. DTR would be more sensible, but I like him less. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They think a year or two ahead with their picks. The Ravens hit on a lot of picks… because the draft a ton of players. We think they win every draft because the go brand name on draft day. They don’t necessarily hit at a higher rate than anyone else. Also, they do a decent job of planning ahead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that covers up blemishes for a couple years. Had Baker made the leap that 18 draft would be the best ever for the Browns. Hell 17 and 18 are by far the best drafts we have had since 99 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell 17 and 18 are by far the best drafts we have had since 99 Also, when you’re not spending a **** ton of picks on QB trying to find someone competent it’s easy to build the rest of your roster. QB’s drafted in R1 since ‘99 Steelers: 2 (and 3 since 1980, 4 since 1970, 6 total going back to 1936!) Ravens: 3 Bengals: 3 (plus a second in Dalton) Browns: 5 plus 3 firsts for Watson plus a 2 on Kizer. Quinn, Weeden, JFF, Baker, and Kizer are all in the last 15 years. If any of those guys hit we can spend multiple firsts on other positions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted May 2, 2023 Author Share Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) I might be in the minority, but I always feel like if you get 2 good starters that’s a good / very good draft. You need to also get 1 starter in free agency too. Just an example- Let’s say Jones and Wypler turn into players with multiple pro bowl appearances, but not all pro level. Then a guy like Elijah Moore explodes into a routine 1000+ yard and 8+ TD type of guy. We’d call Berry the GOAT.
