bcb1213 Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 So do you guys want a big guy wr or more a slot speed guy. I'd imagine speed guy but whatever ya'll think is best. Apparantly we have four, fourth Rd picks. I imagine I'll use one of them on wr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need an outside guy that can potentially stretch the field, since none of their guys really are that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcb1213 Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Would you guys want Njoku for like a fourth and fifth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really see the need for a guy like him (and would probably be too rich of a price), but I'll let others weigh in as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Quite frankly, he’s not worth it. I think you could actually find a TE in the 4th or 5th round would give you similar production.

Ozzy Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 1 hour ago, bcb1213 said: Would you guys want Njoku for like a fourth and fifth? Njoku is an awesome athlete but has a bad injury history and the Vikings arguably already have stretch athletic TE in Irv Smith. They need more of a big blocking type TE who has some pass catching skills. Well looks like Mond is gone, Lions guy watching in on the conversation I am sure. WR could be a good option, I agree they need a speed guy who can stretch the field and make big plays. Terry is still around, same with Jonathan Adams I believe. Both have size and deep field speed. Monty Rice is still around, LB not a huge need but could be a great replacement for Kendricks if he gets hurt and he has amazing speed and athletic ability. Could be a good replacement for Eric Wilson as well but he is still technically unsigned. Sterns is still out there as well and even though I would rather have him over Johnson but not like safety is solid either with just Xavier Woods and Harrison Smith as proven players. So having two rookies there is not out of the question either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcb1213 Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 So we like wr as a pick, maybe a TE. We could always take two wr. Edge also? We got four picks in a short span. May take a wr flyer on just pure speed size combo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May take a wr flyer on just pure speed size combo Yeah one of the four should be a receiver but not two. Is odd how fast receivers are going, doubt that happens in real life. St. Brown and Dyami Brown were both quite over drafted. Josh Imatorbhebhe Illinois Jonathan Adams Jr Arkansas State Tamorrion Terry Florida State RS JR Sage Surratt Wake Forest JR Tutu Atwell Louisville JR Ihmir Smith-Marsette Iowa Whop Philyor Indiana Josh Palmer Tennessee Dez Fitzpatrick Louisville Anthony Schwartz Auburn JR Trevon Grimes Florida Cade Johnson South Dakota State Cornell Powell Clemson If one wants just a burner Schwartz is the fastest, Tutu I like but is more quick than fast but does have big play potential. Surratt has great upside but sat out this season, physically I would love his size and then of course Adams and Terry who both can go up and get the ball and are deep threats. Josh Palmer is a nice vertical receiver who is strong and athletic, same with Grimes who athletically was great at the pro day. Imatorbhebhe is probably the best athlete still around though but does not have as good of ball skills arguably than Adams. Whop is a character and is an interesting dude as well.

Let us not even talk about not taking Caden Sterns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and he ran a 4.57 40 time and has progressed each yeah he has been in college under a pro style coach who is hard on him an expects a lot out of him. He is not better than Nathan Stanley? Ok. And maybe I am overrating Sterns but Sterns is a better athlete than Jamar and has played more consistently for a longer period of time than Jamar Johnson has. Sterns has been an NFL prospect at safety since his freshman year, Jamar did not even see the field as a freshman. But I like Jamar Johnson and his great ball skills no question. Not taking Mond could have been a mistake, in the real draft he is probably gone in the 2nd round. You make the picks though and run the show.

bcb1213 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Sterns is a great athlete but he's an unwilling tackler who has poor work ethic and takes plays off. No thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
