Sad People Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Im just happy we have a new GM and coach I'll wait a few years to start praising Kwesi or start calling him a bust of a GM Rick had ample opportunities Im not surprised one bit hes doing things a bit different because of his background as being an analytics based guy Edited April 30, 2022 by mattyice0401 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boda Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Players I'd like at 165 CB - Tariq Coolen OG - Jamaree Salyer QB - Carson Strong Edge - Kingsley Enagbare / Amare Barno S Hybrid - Smoke Monday TE - Jalen Wydermeyer WR - Charleston Rambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not for once just stick and take the BPA? WHY try to get cute? I dont get it. Yeah I’m really not a fan of getting this cute with the draft board and trading around this often. Spielman did it too and it’s infuriating. Just wonder how much of it is just ego driven and trying to appear to be the smartest guy in the room. Didn’t really work for Spielman.

Rick nailed Smith but not so much anyone else. Jarius Wright contributed some nice plays and Walsh was good until wide left but I don't see anything else notable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the draft with Kendricks and Hunter but looking at everything in its entirety, how many drafts did we really have with multiple big hits.

'18(O'Neil & Conklin)/ '19(ISJ & Mattison) / '20(Jefferson, Cleveland, Dantzler, Osborn & Possibly Wonnum) & possibly '21 depending on how what players do but Darrisaw & Nwangwu seem okay and I like what Bynum did in his short time and ISM still have high hopes for. I suppose you could say the jury is out on the '19 - '21 class but theyre looking like multiple hits. As long as it isn't as bad as 2016 my god that was ugly (Treadwell/MacAlex/Beavers/Brothers/Boehringer/Morgan/Weatherly/Kearse). Was Weatherly or Mac the best player from that draft? Edit: wasn't listing them as all notable just as multiple hits 2nd Edit: There is no maybe about the '15 class that might be one of the best classes anyone has ever put together. (Kendricks/Diggs/Hunter/Waynes) Thats a nasty 4 and pretty good when your 1st rounder is the worst of the bunch Edited April 30, 2022 by Boda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticNorseman Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Just noticed the Ravens took Kolar and Likely in back to back TE picks. Wouldve liked the Vikes to nab one of them. Not many choices left now . . . For TE anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but he's kind of just starting to contribute and im not sure he's done anything close to what Mac did & I loved Kearse and wanted to keep him & bring him back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArcticNorseman Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I like the pick as a 3-4, 5 tech DE. Big kid too . . . He's one to watch blossom in a couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
