The only pick I’ve absolutely hated. The 3rd round is still where you pick football players. Not one trick “trait” ponies. Just awful.

I'm not mad since I'm more on board with the first four picks than most other fans, but still......who is this guy?

Here you go: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/nahshon-wright-nfl-draft-player-profile-oregon-state-cornerback/

  • Height: 6’4 1/4″
  • Weight: 183 pounds
  • Position: Cornerback
  • School: Oregon State
  • Current Year: Junior

Positives: Junior-college transfer who started the past two seasons for Oregon State. Tall, thin cornerback who flashes ball skills. Instinctive, quick to read and diagnose, and effectively times his pass defenses. Fluid flipping his hips off the line, displays solid footwork in reverse, and has a nice break to the pass.

Tracks the ball in the air, quickly closes to the action, and possesses a burst of speed. Efficient, takes proper angles, and stays with assignments. Gives effort up the field on the blitz or defending the run.

Negatives: Has a thin build, struggles with physical receivers, and loses out in battles. Shows a little hesitation reacting to receivers’ moves off the line.

Analysis: Wright was a consistent cornerback at Oregon State and showed progress in his game the past three seasons. He possesses size, growth potential, and enough cover skills to play at the next level, but he must improve his playing strength. He’s a Day 3 pick who could initially line up in dime packages as a rookie.

I don't know what we are doing.

I don't think anyone in that front office/coaching staff does either.

Radio guys are being as nice as possible without crapping all over it.
