Daniel Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 IMO that’s a crazy good draft. Don’t know anything about that CB, but the other first four picks should be immediate contributors. A combo of Barmore and Ossai should actually give us a good front seven. Atwell and Long (in a steal) give us more varied receiver options. Dan Moore in the fifth is a great pick too. LeCounte I’m not a fan of, but it’s the sixth, so whatever. Surratt I think had a good pro day showing. Our CB depth would still be kinda lacking, but you can’t fix everything.

-Hope- Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 i'd definitely be fine with that draft, though it leaves CB a bit late for my liking. i'm not sure atwell is our "type" of player but i've seen him annihilate enough ACC teams including my canes to know how special of a weapon he is.

I just wish he weighed more then 150-160.. that’s so small but he is explosive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttitansfan4life Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) I think my feelings about Barmore are well known. Our IDL pass-rush sucked just as much as our edge rush. Adding Autry certainly helps but we still need a lot more. Barmore, Simmons, Autry, and Tart sounds like a pretty good group. Never been a fan of Ossai in the 1st round but that late in the 2nd is very good value. Definitely needs to learn a lot as a rusher though. Hope we could sign a vet guy like Kerrigan to be the 3rd guy and let Ossai develop as the 4th guy. Landry, Dupree, Kerrigan, Ossai from the edge with Simmons, Barmore, and Autry from the interior is a hell of a lot better than what we had last year. I like Atwell but the dude is a stick and not sure if he can survive in the NFL. Plus, Brown, Reynolds, and Atwell is definitely a step back than what we had at the beginning at last year. Also think the CB group isn’t as good either(and that’s saying something). We improve big time in the front 7 but get significantly worse at WR/TE and worse at CB. However, we knew we’d get worse at certain positions to fix the pass-rush. Still some good players out in FA that can help big time aka Nelson, Kerrigan, Houston, etc. Adding someone like Nelson helps big time. He’s played CB at a high level the past couple of seasons. Still have no clue why they went after someone like Jenkins and why they’re putting everything on a 2nd year player who missed most of last year and was average at best when he did play.

ttitansfan4life Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 Also I know we say this every year, but trading back(with all the needs we have) makes so much sense. I know teams don’t like trading out of the 1st round all together due to losing that 5th year option but we need even more picks. If Horn, Bateman, and someone like Barmore are gone, I’d trade back early in the 2nd and pick up another 3rd or so. I’m sure guys like Moore, Toney, ASJ, Newsome, Collins, Rousseau, Phillips(if teams are really terrified of his concussions) and even Farley, etc. could still be there at the top of 2nd. It’s a deep WR and EDGE draft but extremely weak at CB so getting an extra 3rd(should be an earlier 3rd) helps big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

titansNvolsR#1 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 If Trey Smith is around Day 3 (or are there four days now?), I'll have a massive sad face if we don't find a way to draft him. Health concerns and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love to land Trey Smith but I feel he goes day 2 and I just don’t see how we take a iOL that high although we need the depth and I feel he’d be a perfect replacement for Saffold after he’s done here.

Going so far as to call it a scheme seems like a tough sell lol. Though I don’t even know if that’s true. I also have no idea if the FO views CB as the giant need that most of us do. If we did, and we have a deep desire for athletic, man corners (the main justification I’ve seen for releasing Butler), I’d assume we would’ve just restructured Tannehill instead of cutting Adoree. But what do I know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adoree was good as a man corner suckd in zone, butler hood in press zone suckd in man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJM217 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 That Athletic mock is ok. Barmore is meh. I wouldn't hate it. Ossai is interesting in the second round and can be seen as a developmental prospect. Man I do not like Tutu. He's a 5-6th round player to me. He has speed and what else? Decent hands? At 150-160s I don't see him surviving in the nfl. I need to look into Rochelle. I don't know much about him. Long is a good player. Kinda high floor, low ceiling tho. Dan Moore is interesting. Might be a good fit Who cares about a kicker LeCounte that late is not a bad idea. And I think Sage goes way earlier. If you can get him in the 7th then congrats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't hate him, but not gonna go crazy for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
