I see nothing when I watch this dude play that makes me think he should go in the first round. I could be completely wrong about him but man was he awful every time I watched Kentucky. I’m not really sold on him either. Saw the post on Twitter and thought you guys might want to see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lavar703 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I’m starting to feel like you almost have to take one of Skoranski or Johnson Jr in the first. I really want Mayer, Robinson or Porter Jr. but I don’t see how this team can pass on OL? You cannot go into next season with Norwell starting and Johnson/Skoranski allows you to kick Cosmi inside. Hell, I’m not totally opposed to going OT in the first and then trading back up to get Torrance and just fixing this OL in one fell swoop. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we might be in line to draft one of the 2 OTs you mentioned. If you want Torrence you might have to do that but you can get John Michael Schmitz C/Minn, Vorhees G/USC, Patterson C/G ND, Beebe G Kansas St. Wypler C Ohio St. to name a few. Personally would want JM Schmitz despite him being older. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to take a CB so long in round 1 but if we don’t trade up for a QB, I think we have to go OL. The way the OL played the last month of the season & the first month of the season after Roullier went down was a major problem. I think I pointed this out before, I can’t remember who said it, but someone pointed out on the radio that we were 6-1 with Tyler Larsen as our C. Seems like he was our best center all year.

We don’t have to trade back up into round 1 to ensure we get a good interior OL prospect, especially when we’re hopefully picking 42nd.

It would have been expensive but you could have franchised Sherff, resigned DeAndre Carter and drafted someone like Tyler Linderbaum and we could had actually had a decent OL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ramifications of the Wentz trade were damning. I never agreed with the “well they had to do something” crowd. Especially considering they could’ve stood Pat where they were in the draft and got the “best” QB available in Pickett. It was a desperate move by Rivera which hurt the team badly. What made it worse is Heinicke is just a flat out better player at this point. I’m terrified of what they’ll do going into this season. My guess is they’ll make a major push for Carr and we’ll be back in this situation all over again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylor made Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 (edited) In Bold who we need to win: New Orleans already up 7-0 on Carolina. I think NO should win this. Can NY Jets beat a Miami Dolphins team fighting for their playoff lives? Miami is starting a rookie QB with Joe Flacco at QB for the Jets. This one seems 50/50 Another game with playoff implication: CLE vs Pitt. Will Cleveland Browns put up a fight against the Steelers? They have the division rivalry going on but I have my doubts. Pittsburgh is about to score. I am projecting that we end up with the 13th pick. Edited January 8 by taylor made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
