Our Next Pick

[thisiscowboyscountry]

OLB Myles Jack
ILB Reggie Ragland
DT Jarran Reed
DT Chris Jones
DE Noah Spence
DE Jonathon Bullard
DE Emmanuel Ogbah
DE Kevin Dodd

Deepest top of the 2nd round in a while for defensive talent. Glad we still have this pick.

 

[CATCH17]

I'm liking Ogbah, Spence, Jonathan Bullard.

I want a DL.


Bullard is interesting because he seems like a guy that could be a DE or 3 tech.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

Jack, Spence or Dodd I will be fine with.

I'll do you one better. I want those players and in that exact order.

They are really going to have an abundance of excellent choices:

• If they covet one of the Tier Two QBs, they are both there (Hackenberg and Cook specifically)
• A couple of high risk/reward LBs could really make a difference for the next couple of years (Jack and, to a lesser extent Ragland)
• Actual useful edge rushers (Spence, Dodd, Ogbah, Bullard?) if that is the best junction of need/talent
• A couple of nice DBs (Alexander and Bell), with a couple of more possibles (Howard, Fuller)
• A ton of nice tackles, albeit mostly 1-tech. The two Alabama products headline this list.
• At least one interesting WR (Thomas) with a couple more likely third round targets.
• One TE, whose 2nd round choice would cause the board to explode given this teams 2nd round TE history.

That, my friends, is some NICE value. Our immediate need is currently edge rushers. However, next year we are really going to be hurting for CBs. I know it is not going to be popular, but is Alexander the best pick at 34, given his value and the upcoming CB need? It is easy to point to the DL as a source of current need and great value remaining, but there seem to be far more of these specimens currently remaining on the board, with the hope for a potential slip of one (or more) of them into the top of the 3rd round.

Just a thought.

 

[reddyuta]

can Dodd and Ogbah slide inside and play DT or are they both strictly DE's?

Ogbah can play DT.

 

[LocimusPrime]

We need to keep our focus on offensive players to make this the most dominant defense the league has ever seen!

Lol. Lol nice

 

[Jarv]

I like either Dodd/Ogbah at #34, Also wouldn't be angry with Vonn Bell at Safety.

 

[YosemiteSam]

You know, if Myles Jack can come back healthy. He will probably be a force in the NFL.

 

[YosemiteSam]

Ogbah can play DT.

I think Ogbah and Dodd aren't going to be any better than average. They are going to get swallowed up by NFL caliber OL.

 

[BAT]

Jack can't play now and may need micro fracture surgery
Pass at 34

Jack will be ready to play by TC if not preseason. First rounder Karl Jospeh won't even be physically ready to play until the season starts, projection is 4th game. Leary with the same injury has not needed micro fracture surgery after 5 years and counting.

 

[Doomsday]

Emmanuel Ogbah or Kevin Dodd or A'Shawn Robinson
