Some notes from my source involving the NFL draft

I think some team is going to draft Metcalf thinking they're getting the next Calvin Johnson only to find out they actually got the next Kelvin Benjamin.

I'll be shocked if this guy isn't Darrius Heyward-Bey part 2. Mediocre college production with otherworldly measurements and workouts.

I’m not expecting him to either, and from a team standpoint,it would be better if he didn’t because a better fit player may fall in that case, however I’m not 100% opposed to not drafting Metcalf if he’s on the board, I feel like Rivera should be able to field a top 12 defense with what we have currently on the roster.  

Metcalf looks the part as far as potential to be the next dominate WR. I don’t know if you can pass on that If our blue chip guys are off the board or rated slightly lower 

aj brown is slept on too 

Top 12 defense?

DE - Two 31 year old rotational guys

DT - Short, but who else.... TBD

LB - lost TD... how will this affect Luke

No FS worth a damn currently

We need DE help, so I really hope we don't go with a WR in the first. I think there's  good value after the first round if we want a rookie WR in this draft. I'm not saying we draft for need at 16, but the DE/DT are stacked in the first round, and fall off a deep cliff in the early 30s of the 2nd round.

Seeing how the defense performed after Ron took over, and us making some additions by subtractions I could see it happening, now that’s not to say let’s go all in on offense in the draft. There’s not going to be a day 1 game changer at de at 16 barring Bosa getting caught doing something silly before the draft, so I think all options are on the table

Metcalf could easily drop. Sure his combine may be like Julio, but Julio was a stud producer. Metcalf could easily drop to us. He’s the prototypical combine workout warrior who wasn’t even the best actual WR on his own team There are a bunch of guys who I definitely don’t think will be there (Bosa, Quinnen, Allen, Oliver after pro-day and Murray). There’s not a single other guy you can say “no way” to after that. All of them could end up at 16 if things fall right.

He has Raiders written all over him. They need another WR with Jordy Nelson retiring to take pressure off AB. He will be in Black and Silver on draft night.

Now that I think about it, if he does fall he could fit the BPA depending what DE's are left. If Sweat/Burns are off the board he could be a player Hurney/Ron would consider.

Even though I love Moore/Samuel being the starters, we still lost a starting big body WR in Funchess and we didn't replace him. Metcalf could be possible even though I wouldn't like it.

Ron said he still wants to add more weapons around Cam on offense in his ESPN interview in February.

Assuming Murray goes number 1 or the Raiders don’t ike a DL. Al Davis doesn’t run the show anymore so if that’s who you think will take him you are probably mistaken. They’ve had private visits with Haskins, Gary, Oliver, Quinnen and Allen and not with Metcalf.

smokescreen they trying to scare other teams to trade up for Haskins so they can get more picks.

I think Metcalf is a good compliment to Samuel and Moore, that makes it where Moore and Samuel can play more slot/gadget type. Injury to Moore or Samuel and we’re back to worst WR group in the nfl. 

I personal could see us going WR in the 2nd if a guy falls that has a 1st round rank

@Verge I saw you had Metcalf in your mock to us in the first, how highly do you have him rated or you buddy ? 

It's not realistic that he'd drop to us, but that's who the site I was using dropped in my lap, so I took him.
