  1. Ouch - yeah that’s why he’s still available
  2. Proof that pre and post draft (year later) grades vary so much is shown in the “Redrafts” ESPN does every year. There’s always so much movement (both ways). Nothing is a certainty with any pick
  3. Haha. That’s the main reason why I feel like we didn’t pursue him. We need folks who can do both - there’s a reason he’s heading for his 5th team in as many years
  4. He’s terrible against the run - like very terrible
  5. Don’t count out Cade Mays - dude showed a lot of good things last year. I wouldn’t be shocked if he wins that LG job outright.
  6. We needed this pick badly. Let Zavala and Mays battle it out for Corbetts spot until he is healthy. It does suck to hear that Corbett will miss a few regular season games
  7. That’s more because we ignored the position for several years. And because Hurney sucked after the first round.
  8. Wouldn’t shock me to see us trade back either in the 4th or 5th to collect a 6th rounder. for example, we could trade 114 to Arizona for 122 and 180 (3rd pick of the 6th).
  9. Interesting article. Fitt makes it clear they panicked a little as DEs came off the board fast. Sounds like Johnson was the last DE on our board that we liked, so we had to be aggressive to get him. It is what it is…we only gave up a late 4th. like someone said earlier, I’m actually happy we went offense in the 2nd the more I think about it. Offensive teams win super bowls.
  10. CB, ILB, OG/OT, and RB are all targets I imagine. DE still possible if Adebewore is there.
  11. We have 66 players under contract. Looks like we will wind up with 5 draft picks, bringing us to 71. I assume we will sign another few players in post-draft free agency, bringing us to 74. That would leave up to 16 spots left for UDFA.
  12. Yeah there are a bunch of examples league wide also. I just don’t trust scouting reports and draft grades anymore. We were praised for getting YGM in the 2nd a few years back, and he hasn’t shown much of anything. You just never know really
  13. Charles Johnson, mike Rucker, Greg hardy, kk short. Barno last year looks promising
  14. Complain all y’all want - meanwhile the 49ers just took a kicker in the 3rd round
  15. Well heck if the scouting report written by guys who never worked in a football organization says it….it must be true. also - he’s 24. So you’ll get 10 years out of him instead of 12. Is that really a big deal? He’s a third rounder for goodness sakes
  16. This is such an idiotic comment. First of all - this is a new coaching staff. Second - you act like we’ve never had any success at all and a ton of bad drafts. This team has quite a bit of talent, both drafted and signed via FA. I trust that they know more about football than anyone on this board.
  17. He had more sacks this year than anyone on our roster not named Burns. 6.5 sacks in 11 games. Trust the staff
  18. I remember when no one knew who the heck James Bradberry was when we picked him and called it a massive reach…
  19. Different - 30 pounds heavier and runs a 4.45 40. Straight up bully. Seems we wanted to add size. He may not play much this year, but we certainly needed some bigger depth.
  20. This is the guy who punched a fan - we can use him when other fans take over our stadium
  21. Run stopper and pass rusher - supposed to be an even better pro than he was college athlete. Great pick
  22. If Adebewore is there by the Colts pick look for us to poss trade up
