Who you got playing corner?

Just filling a lot of holes with BPA in those rounds

Brady will use Claypool in TE situations for sure

Brown in 1st

Claypool in 2nd

Duggar in 3rd

N Harris in 4th

Claypool at the top of the second round?  I'm not sure his stock jumped that much.

I got Gallimore in the second round, Jeremy Chinn in the 3rd and the best OT in the 4th...Bartch or Cleveland.

[45catfan]

We really need to trade down with so many holes to fill and only 7 picks.  If we could manage two extra picks I like: OT, C, WR, TE, DT(x2), S, LB and CB.  That still leaves out QB, DE, RB and G.

Here's an interesting simulation:

7: R1P7

QB TUA TAGOVAILOA

ALABAMA

38: R2P6

DL NEVILLE GALLIMORE

OKLAHOMA

69: R3P5

WR CHASE CLAYPOOL

NOTRE DAME

110: R4P7

LB JORDYN BROOKS

TEXAS TECH

152: R5P6

DL DAVON HAMILTON

OHIO STATE

184: R6P5

CB JAMES PIERRE

FLORIDA ATLANTIC

221: R7P7

RB AJ DILLON

BOSTON COLLEGE

 

Who's dancing drunk, buck naked in the streets if this actually happened?  I know at least one guy!

Claypool also had an excellent week at the Senior Bowl on the actual field, then opened eyes by outperforming many of the top names with 2-3 inches more ht and 25 lbs more weight.  I just think Brady will have some major mismatches waiting on defenses with this guy.  Red zone nightmare

Don't get me wrong, I like the guy as our pick, just not #38.  If he's there in the 3rd (see my mock simulation) I'm all for it.  Unless things go haywire, I'm 100% for defense in rounds 1 & 2.

Claypool accounted for practically a third of ND's passing offense. 

Given his production backed up by his measurables, I'd have no issue with him at #38 if we're looking WR.

Yeah, when virtually every draftable SEC OL is saying he was their toughest match up that pretty much says it all.

Additionally, I'm just gonna have to chime in here and disagree with @ellis... I find a 5.16 40-yd dash by a 6-5 326 lb DT far from "lax", lol.

[tiger7_88]

If the Panther's don't go DT in the 1st, another Auburn prospect Marlon Davidson would be an interesting pick in the 2nd/3rd.  He's played edge in the SEC, but he has the size to play 3-tech.

Here's a vid with a little good-and-bad.  He fails at his job to set the edge on this play, but then exhibits a "don't give up" follow-up which is pretty damn good at his size.

This is not for you but for everyone that comments on it. The combine has always used 1/8 of a inch in measurements.  Since forever.  They do it that way, so I've been told, so every year you can compare one player to another without converting fractions.  It's the other websites that reduces the 6/8 to 3/4 but the official combine numbers will always be in 1/8 of an inch.

I know what you mean, but they used to use decimals.  (Waaaay back) which would serve the same purpose-I think--there has to be a reason they switched.

See the 1994 combine results:  http://nflcombineresults.com/nflcombinedata.php?year=1994&pos=&college=

Yeah, that's just fine. There's just been some freakish 40s by some freakishly large young men this year.
