Possible picks at 12

[darthseinfeld]

Who you got?
Ashton Jeanty rb Boise State
Kenneth Grant dt Michigan
Kelvin Banks ot. Texas
Tyler Warren te Penn State
Derrick Harmon. dt Oregon
James Pearce Jr. edge Tennessee
Walter Nolen dt Mississippi
Josh Simmons ot Ohio State

I think there a possibility Burden is there. Not a great possibility. Maybe 40%.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Not sure Hampton makes it to us in round 2, but a DL or OL in R1 and Hampton in 2 is my ideal start.

When we a top 5 possibility, I thought Hampton had a chance to be there. If we are closer the mid tier probably not

 

[darthseinfeld]

He is no doubt a sure fire blue chip talent and there aren’t many in this class

Thats why I see Jeanty going top 10

 

[darthseinfeld]

No thanks to smallish 3Techs. We don't have the right people playing next to them for them to be truly effective.

Nolan? I wouldn't call him small. He is over 300, which is typical for that type of player

 

[baltcowboy]

They look like they will win some games.

They do but Cincinnati and Carolina are not going to lay down.

Cincy might, saw them today, defense is real bad and now they have little to no chance to make the postseason. Agree about Carolina and even Tampa

Which tells us, if he did slide, won’t get past us

Cincinnati is better than the Giants and our offense is not great. It is a toss up game. We can win. No doubt.

Honestly, my concern is more positional than talent. A DT rarely makes an immediate impact as it generally takes 2-3 years. Since Mazi is showing improvement, I am leaning more toward pairing him with a free-agent vet with a solid resume as a run defender. That way I know what I'm getting and know he can hit the ground running.

The problem with this strategy is the DT free agency class is weak.

Have friends on the Ole Miss staff. They list him at 290 lbs and that’s being generous. I know recent roster update has him at 305 but again, he’s much much lighter.

Good player but we don’t have the support or scheme to maximize his talents.

 

[KingintheNorth]

Very

There are guys like Bobby Brown, Tedarrell Slaton, and Khyiris Tonga that are under 30 and could come in and help this team. You just have to have a FO that isn’t terrified of their own ineptness in free agency.

Or they could go completely off script and try to sign a bigger name like Milton Williams from Philadelphia, strengthening their team and weakening their division rival in one move. Williams is light and more of a 3Tech so they would need to also add a 1Tech who isn’t almost 40 years old.

Not sure Hampton makes it to us in round 2, but a DL or OL in R1 and Hampton in 2 is my ideal start.

Hampton would be awesome. I would like Grant and Hampton. I hope that we get one of the top backs. One of Jeanty, Hampton, or Kaleb Johnson. I won't be happy if we miss out on all 3. It's going to be close with that 2nd round pick.

Agree but there could be a few cap casualties.........Johnathan Allen for example

Their OL isn’t good either

I just want to see our pass rush and secondary against their quarterback and receivers. Will tell me what we should do in the draft.

I think we are going to see Cincy now tanking.

Teams only tank when they sit players. Borrow, Chase, and company will play. Look at the Cowboys since Micah came back.

I agree and hell, Taylor could now be fighting for his job

The Brown family is cheaper than the Jones family. Taylor job is safe. I think he got an extension a few years ago. Good lord Dan Orlosky is kissing Burrow‘a bootie right now. It’s sickening…….
