***Official Day TWO draft thread***

I hope Chaz Green is last years Anthony Hitchens.
We all hated the pick but ended up being a very solid pick.

If things go right he won't see the field very much this year so we will know 2-3 years from now.

 

[KalEl]

Didn't you say it would be a third? You're really reaching now.

I gotta mess with you man. Just having fun.

 

[fifaguy]

Mock drafts have never proved more useless.

Have they ever gotten one pick right for us? haha

 

[mldardy]

Why do we get always seem to get a little cooky in the middle rounds? The early part tends to look calculated then...time to score some UDFAs. I'm exaggerating; got Witten, Hatcher, TW, etc. but tends to get wackier the later we get into almost ever year.

Hitchens as well.

 

[DTown214]

No one else has either so far so no we don't gotta take him and no we didn't blew it.

I hope he's there in the 4th but we'll see

 

[KalEl]

News to the Vikings.

Did you say something?

 

[dupree89]

No Ajayi means AD

i dont think so..not with the 3rd rounder gone

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Did you say something?

Zzz.

Lol. You finally giving up on it? You fought the good fight, at least.

 

[Outlaw Heroes]

LOL at people talking about they hate this pick. When you get in these middle rounds most if not all of these players are gambles. Just wait and see what kind of player Green turns out to be.

Fair enough, but the consensus view is that he could have been had a round or two later. If he turns out to be like Travis Frederick nobody will care but for now it looks like a questionable pick.

 

[BourbonBalz]

Take Langford in the fourth Would it require a bit of a trade-up?

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Green mentioned they talked to him about OG

 

[BigStar]

Hitchens as well.

I like Hitchens too, but he is part of the 4th to 7th exception with Scan/Free as only other recent contributors (maybe you could include Bowen here too when with the team). I generally like/understand our first 3 with this/Esco as recent exceptions.

 

[Deep_South]

Green plays right tackle, but has also played left tackle when needed, and our old swing tackle is playing for the Jags. Not sexy, but a necessary pick.

 

[The Quest for Six]

odd pick then.

you need a swing tackle....Parnell is gone...one of the tackles goes down, who plays?

 

[manster4ever]

NO...'we' didn't all hate the pick. I watched AH play in the Big Ten extensively and told anyone who would listen on here the kid could play. Same with Fred the year before. Our draft this year is pretty underwhelming to this point.

 

[Sydla]

I am all for quality OL backups but in the 3rd? Doesn't make sense to me.

He could potentially start at RT within three years.

 

[manster4ever]

Agree...I said leading up to the draft we should nab a swing tackle. I would have liked Bennett here, RB in 4th and swing tackle in the 5th but....let's be honest it would be slim pickings by then.

 

[Dwight]

Still need a RB and DT.
