mwalker Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Replace Taylor-Britt in the third with another lineman and I'd be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warfelg Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Don’t hate it but don’t love it either. Rather see a OT with the downside of IOL than an IOL outside of Tyler Linderbaum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two Safeties in this class who have all-star potential and they are Cam Taylor-Britt and Nick Cross. Their speed, angles to the ball, range, coverage, and tackling ability is special. You're thinking IOL or OT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zion looks pretty good, I'm kind of meh on him, though. I'm not sure he's a needle mover. I like Quay Walker, but I don't expect him to help much on defense his first year.

cjfollett Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 It's a decent mock. Zion is a really good option depending on what happens in free agency. Kenyon Green is another good pick. In the 2nd, I'd prefer Pitre over Walker, as I have seen mocks where Walker could be had in the 3rd. As for later picks, I am not a fan of OT in the 7th round. It's not that he can't make the team, but he offers little or no help for STs, and that's where a 7th round pick offers the most value. Go with WR, CB, RB, or maybe LB there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
43M Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Wouldnt complain, but dont love it. Zion is nice. Not big on Quay. Dont know the 3rd rd guy much. Also, youre missing our 6th rounder for Melvin Ingram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's too similar to Norwood. Also, can he play as a true Safety? I haven't seen anything to convince me he can. Walker may go before Dean. He's being heavily courted by NFL teams. I honestly think that Bamidele Olaseni is way better than Trevor Penning who many say should go in the first round. The film don't lie.

Hmm...its a pick we definitely have from the Ingram trade. Only pick not confirmed yet is the one for Dupree. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that the extra 3rd? If so we have to wait for comp picks to get released. IIRC, some are saying due to Haeg's playing time, it cancelled out the pick. I'm not sure though.

Nah....Haeg likely cancelled out the pick we wouldve gotten for Feiler....which probably wouldve been a 5 or 6. Then someone cancelled out the Hilton comp pick too. I think Weatherspoon. Not sure. We dont have a 4th this year, and thats likely what we will get for Dupree. It took him awhile to fully recover from the ACL, and his played under 400 snaps. I am not sure what the criteria is exactly, but all projections have us getting a 4th for Bud. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebrick Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Weatherspoon was a trade so it does not count vs comp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
