SemperFeist Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 BOLD PREDICTION: Carolina and New Orleans make a rare in division trade. New Orleans sends the 16th pick, plus more, to Carolina for the 6th pick in order to draft one of the top offensive tackles. Carolina drops back to pick up much needed draft capital, and get their QB at pick 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Plissken Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 PA is usually pretty accurate with draft stuff has the team picking Jermaine Johnson over Hamilton at 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede700 Posted April 28, 2022 Author Share Posted April 28, 2022 Boye could go anywhere from late 1st to the early 2nd. I think it's quite possible that the Chiefs will take him at the bottom of the 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the analytics part will do Hamilton in as far as consideration for this organization. While he's been super-productive, that Combine performance is just a huge red flag...and I also think that (while I don't always believe what he says) Leber, in the past, said he doesn't look all that fast on tape either, so he may be that inevitable faller in the draft. People, over the past few days, continue to point out Johnson's age. It's not like he's Brandon Weeden. He's a year older than most prospects, but I am expecting that will be the case over the next couple of years with several prospects, because of the COVID season. His lack of "production" in college was because he was at Georgia...and you see how much talent they have there. While I don't think he's their top choice, he could be a likely choice depending upon how the board falls...and yes, maybe even over Hamilton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He appears to be in that 2nd tier of edge rushers. So, if Walker, Thibodeaux, Hutchinson, and Johnson all go in the top 10-12 picks, it could be an early call for Mafe.

marshpit23 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Just now, gopherwrestler said: I want a wide receiver now if KT DS AG or KH aren’t available I secretly (not anymore lol) want a WR in the first round. Williams, Olave or Williams would be ideal. Even more ideal if we can trade back a few spots (potentially NO #16, SD #17) and still pick up our WR. It could be argued that a top flight WR could make the biggest first year impact and meet a need moving forward (Thielen replacement). Could you imagine the mismatches you could create. The Viking’s O would be dangerous. I would definitely target DE or CB in the 2nd and 3rd. Gonna be an interesting night as I have no clue who we are going to drat.
