The biggest character question make for Rosen wasn't that he's too inquisitive; it's that he's too basic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners getting McGlinchey. I thought they'd get a defensive player. I was worried they and Oakland could ruin Miami's chances of getting a good defensive player. 4. Buffalo trading up into the first round for Edmunds. 5. Baltimore picking a TE over a WR. Shockers: 1. The Raiders passing on James and Edmunds for Miller. 2. How cheap the trade ups were. Nobody really had to give up a ton to move up. 3. Edmunds and James falling out of the top 15. 4. Penny going first and before Michel. 5. The Saints after a great draft last year doing a very strange trade up for a raw pass rusher in Davenport. Baltimore needed a tight end more than they needed a receiver.

Uncle Buck Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 The first round of this draft had more surprise picks than any other draft I can remember in the last 10-15 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. It was pretty exciting until my team decided to be one of the surprise pick teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really think it was a shocker, there was rumors the entire week we might pick McG. I just don't think we wanted to believe it since we thought there was better value available.

navysaintsfan Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I really don't think NOLA's pick was "showcking", more the cost of the trade. Davenport was picked in the area he was expected to go from everything I could read. Not to happy about giving up next years first, but if he can make an impact and help us get over the hump...I'll forget easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browns have Garrett and Ogbah, so I can see why they passed on Chubb. While you can never have enough pass rushers, a part-time player at #4 just didn't add up. I'm also a big fan of Denzel Ward. Think he'll be an elite corner. If he does, I don't see the issue of taking him #4 overall... I cant remember which analyst said it but they basically made the point that in a few years they need to renew these 2 contracts and if they took Chubb that would be a crazy amount of money invested in one group. You can never have enough pass rushers but some of them need to be role players.Same way you want a decent backup at QB but you cant just have like Brady and Brees on the same team (I know this is a ridiculous example but you get my point haha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
