Dalvin Cook went in the 2nd. Jonathan Taylor, Nick Chubb. Alvin Kamara went with the 2nd pick of the 3rd. None of those teams want do-overs. And how many Super Bowls have those teams won? Paton is a Spielman clone - competent but conservative and will make the team competitive but never a champion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derrick henry, Dalvin Cook and Johnathan Taylor, the top 3 RB's in the NFL last year were all 2nd rd picks. Fantasy football championships, yes, Super Bowl championships, not one between them.

DiehardBronxFan Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Love the pick. Head says we should have waited for the board to come to us. Buy Heart is thrilled. We needed a #2 back. Everyone complaining about our offense - it just got better. Complete back, great fit for us, will play a lot this year, take over next year. Makes passing game better as a pass blocker, a receiver, and a PA threat. A QB’s best fiend. Single biggest thing we could have done to improve the offense, and this team, this year (once we passed on Fields). Love it. ...but don’t like the trade, and won’t argue that we probably wouldn’t have gotten better total draft value by holding at 40. But we’re going to be glad we have him on this team😜 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather devote the rest of the picks to the defense but I wouldn't be mad if Humphrey were to fall to us, he's a good C/G. Spencer Brown is someone I'd be okay with too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is, you can find quality RB's in the 2nd. Not very often do you pick up a TD in the 6th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroncoBruin Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Keep on sliding, Jabril Cox... And yeah, picking a RB in the 2nd is fine. It’s picking them in the early portion of the first round that presents bad value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a little behind, a couple of those guys may have gone already. edit: dammit, Chiefs I’m okay with that. We don’t need a throwback LB. We need an athlete.

grizmo78 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Alim McNeil is my next guy. Doubtful we take him given the Purcell extension but i'm hoping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcpbawler Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Daviyon Nixon, Milton Williams, Jabril Cox, Jamar Johnson, Baron Browning, Alim Mcneil, Joseph Ossai all my guys at this point that are left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean BPA is BPA regardless of position... I would have taken JOK, but this really helps out the QB. The guy can block... even big guys. Being able to give a heavy chip and release can really help the edges as well... I think we will see a heavy rotation of bcks and Boone will some some action as well. We will always have fresh guys coming in hungry. I really want some depth at OL... We are paper thin there and injuries always happen... I do not see an OL I love in round 3... Ugh!

My problem with him is that I think his arms measured the shortest of the top 20 OT’s. I don’t love short arm OT’s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiehardBronxFan Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I will also emphasize, if the goal is to give Lock a chance to develop, this was the best pick you could make. If your goal was to make this O attractive to a potential FA/ Trade QB, this was the best pick you could make. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
