RaidersAreOne Posted April 30, 2022 Author Share Posted April 30, 2022 @NYRaider You brought up his inability to catch. Is that because he dropped a lot of balls, or he simply wasn't utilized that way much because Cook was good at it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy408 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 For me I didn’t like the pic at first until I realized a. that he’s a five-star recruit so he’s talented and probably should’ve got drafted higher if it wasn’t for injuries b. We were able to get Neil Farrell right after which was probably the most important draft pick for us this year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Would have preferred Spiller but I trust the professionals over my casual glancing at prospects in comparison. lol With the Chargers taking Spiller right after I think we've got a team working a plan instead of being worked by other's plans. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you say 5 star recruit who has had injury issues. If he can remain healthy he will be good value. Watching a few minutes of highlights he is a hard runner with some good speed. Kind of reminds me of Chris Carson with more top end speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humble_Beast Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I honestly like Zeus more than Cook at a prospect. Cook was a 2nd rounder too, I think he was hyped up because of his brother. Zeus more explosive and more physical, Cook I guess is a better pass catcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m gonna honestly say that I like cook more than white but I will say I like white as a prospect a lot better than I like Josh Jacobs. And that’s me being completely honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah running back is not a value position but when you can get a running back with five star talent on day three that’s completely justifiable. And it seems like they have a very good understanding of the board because right now the people that I wanted kindred and sayler are still available. Another guy I really liked Woolen is still available too. There is a slickness to the way they are drafting 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tell already that both Ziegler and JM are not messing around. I knew we would go interior Oline with the 1st pick and it appears Parham was very good value there. We needed a RB with speed and aggressiveness and White fits the bill. We need a run stuffing NT and Ferrell checks that box. Ziegler is doing a good job so far. Getting good value in areas of need for this team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me the more impressive thing is how they minimized their ability to mess up the pics by what they did earlier in the off-season by getting the key positions via trade and signing( WR Edge and CB) so that they could focus on more of the easier positions to draft that usually last later in the draft IOL NT and RB. There’s a lot of wisdom in that 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
