Draft Day ****Official Round 7 Draft Thread****

[CPanther95]

I know alot of us are not happy with some of the picks today. But lets be honest, the 6th, 7th round is pretty much a crap shoot. Role of the dice and hope you hit big. Honestly the whole draft is that way, no exact science to it.

Yeah, these are the odds (from 2005-2015) to find a guy that starts in at least half the games of his career (from a Brandon Weedon to a Tom Brady):

6th Round - TE (26%) OL (16%) DL (13%) WR (9%) DB (8%) RB (6%) LB (5%) QB (0%)

7th Round - DB (11%) OL (9%) QB (6%) WR (5%) DL (3%) LB (2%) RB (0%) TE (0%)

So we may be upset that we burned a 5th on a 3rd string QB

I'm not upset about the Mike White pick one iota - heaven help us if Cooper Rush ever becomes the starter.

White has starter potential, just in case Dak 2017 becomes a trend.

Back from eating some pizza.

Broncos take...RB David Williams Arkansas

 

[jazzcat22]

I have cooking duty tonight. Was Poona picked up yet?

Will take Superman to pick him up...but he wasn’t drafted yet....

 

[theebs]

what do you mean?

Like more disciplined?

more aggressive than usual.

 

[glimmerman]

NFL network must be way behind. Edit: I had paused it for about a 30 minutes. No wonder we still had a 6th rounder.

 

[KingintheNorth]

In reality, Dallas (and all teams) are looking at around 25 players they really like as UDFA. The guy they draft in the 7th round is the guy you think is least likely to go undrafted.

The possible exception is someone you had a 5th round grade on, who somehow slid down this far.

 

[USMarineVet]

Aren’t we still on round 6?

Check the name of the thread Bro.

 

[KingintheNorth]

more aggressive than usual.

I don't know if I agree. They didn't trade up at all. The Austin trade was a good one IMO but minimal risk.

I'm not saying my perceived lack of aggression is a bad thing. They seemed to have a plan and stuck with it.

Raiders take...WR Marcell Ateman Oklahoma State

Check the name of the thread Bro.

Sorry.. my fault I paused the tv for 30 minutes. I was thinking “have another drink Joe.” Lol

 

[Floatyworm]

Du'Vonta Lampkin NT Oklahoma

 

[KingintheNorth]

who was the public draft guru who was saying he was hearing Marcell Ateman to Dallas in the 2nd?

 

[DFWJC]

Ateman in the 7th to Oakland was decent value.
He has a chance..maybe.
That roster is loaded at WR

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

Dolphins take....K Jason Sanders New Mexico

[Jipper]

so are we really going to draft 9 players this draft?

 

[Vintage]

Kind of wanting to see Michael Joseph drafted since he played about 2 minutes from me. It's a cool local story. Wouldn't mind Wadley, either

 

[Jipper]

who is even left? Any idea who our priorty UDFA's are going to be?

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

Jaguars take...Edge Leon Jacobs Wisconsin
