Same I really like this draft

I just watched a video on NFL.com with cravens being interviewed, it seemed like he strongly preferred playing saftey and the move to linebacker wasn't something he really chose (seems like coaches suddenly told him to switch positions). He said he prefers playing Saftey.

Yep, I also wonder how much the added weight he gained to play LB effected his combine numbers.  Even though he prefers Safety, he has to keep enough weight on in case he's taken by a team that wants him at LB.  So, if we take him as a Safety, could he drop 10 pounds or so, which should increase his speed and general athleticism?

I love the first two picks. I like the positions for picks 3 and 4, but I don't know anything about those players. I'd love nassib in the 3rd and cooper or sterling Sharpe in the 4th of either one happen to still be there. (doubtful (

I think we could expect some increased performance but we cant expect too much of a difference. Even still Roman Harper has shown our SS doesnt NEED to have elite speed. All he needs is to be able to tackle well. If this guy has elite instincts like Kuechly and Davis then I'm for drafting him.

Hunter keeps falling to us in the 2nd round in many mock drafts (i.e. at Fanspeak), but the more I look at how thin and bottom heavy the TE class is, the more I think that Hunter will be gone in the first or early second if a team really needs/wants a good TE.

Here's how the TEs grade / rank currently on NFL.com.  (the "projected round" comments are my own addition based solely on grade/rank - not taking into account Mock scenarios and teamneeds)

Only 4 TEs in the top 124 players.  Pretty thin pickins.

Henry still ranks in the 40s on some boards, however, so it's not totally impossible that he falls to us in round 2.

if we can't grab Hunter, or find something we like better, I like Vannett in the 3rd. I doubt he really goes in the second. After him, I'm not too educated on the lower draft potentials. We might be just fine with Simonson.

Rep for Judon.  He's a mid-round guy that could be a cool pick.  Has a ton of potential. 

*Edit: no rep for Genesis
