Spence and Miller never convinced me of their talent. If this J Smith thing works out it is huge. I have to think they have seen something positive unless it was a quick pick similar to Martin two years ago.

Overall I'm a fan of the draft. I probably go Spence in the 2nd and take cash with one of our 6th rounders . Other than that I'm very pleased

My dream scenario would have involved trading back with the Titans and picking up two number 2's. If our staff really believed that Paxton Lynch could be a franchise QB, then I draft him at 15 and don't look back. Now with 3 - 2nd rounders, we can afford a luxury pick like Jaylon Smith in the 2nd round. Would have loved to see the Boys draft Sterling Shepard in the 2nd, he is going to be a star, breaks my heart that he went to the gnats! Also would have like to trade up in the 3rd and land Carl Nassib DE.

I know many posters were thrilled about drafting Zeke...I probably would have gone a different route and looked at CJ Prosise, Jordan Howard, or Alex Collins in the 5th and 6th rounds.

Agreed. If Spence was taken at 34, in my opinion the draft would have been an A.

For once I agree with Jerry. Should have over paid for Lynch because an enormous over pay looms down the road. Do I have faith that this team has the staff develop him? Absolutely not. But it was a more worthwhile gamble than Jaylon Smith IMO. I also would gone Ramsey or traded down at 4.

If I would have had the same draft spots...

1) Elliot, RB
2) Robinson, DT
3) Bullard, DE
4a) Billings, DT
4b) Higgins, WR
6a) Mills, CB/FS
6b) Alexander, OG
6c) Marshall, RB

I could live with this

Though I would have traded down and not taken Elliot

 

[AzorAhai]

Im fine with most of the draft. The only thing I switch is Ramsey at 4 and Booker at 135.
