A stupidly early set of reflections:
I was initially, unexcited by our draft. It wasn't glitzy and it didn't involve many Jerry deals.
The draft has always been a big thing for me since the end of Gil Brandt/Tom Landry/Tex Schramm days so my apologies, in advance, for prematurely commenting.
Round 1: No. 26 - Mazi Smith, DT, Michigan - looked as suggested pre-draft. Solid against the run.
Round 2: No. 58 - Luke Schoonmaker, TE, Michigan - 1st outing after injury but he's going to be a good player provided he isn't as fragile as David Lafleur turned out to be
Round 3: No. 90 - DeMarvion Overshown, LB, Texas - seriously impressed with his all-round game. Really excited by what we may have found in late R3.
Round 4: No. 129 - Viliami Fehoko, DE, San Jose State - no opinon. No great expectations.
Round 5: No. 169 - Asim Richards, OT, North Carolina - looked serviceable and gave me more optimisim than our incumbent backups on OL.
Round 6: No. 178 (from CHI through MIA via KC) - Eric Scott, Jr. DB, Southern Miss - no real expectation other than the hype from Oxnard. Didn't look great.
Round 6: No. 212 - Deuce Vaughn, RB, Kansas State - Far better than expected. Real zip and has a place on this roster. Hope his body holds up.
Round 7: No. 244 - Jalen Brooks, WR, South Carolina - looks good for R7. No great expectation to make this roster.
Looks solid so far. Better than I thought. 4 potential starters in Y2 or Y3 is as good as you'd hope selecting this low in each round.
