Prior to pro days being held by colleges for their draft prospects, I would like to throw a name out there that I hope we are looking at. Raymond Johnson III from Georgia Southern. He’s kind of a diamond in the rough but has the intangibles I feel we could really use. He fits along with the types of players we have drafted to use for a Monroe dynamic and quicker defense. A stronger version but akin to the Marquise Haynes and Christian Miller type 3-4 OLB but this guy has the power and consistency to be special in the stopping the run like Obama. I don’t see him too high in mocks yet at highest maybe the 5th and that’s fine. With no combine until GA Southern showcases him and the other guys that declared for the draft we won’t know how high the league is on him. GA Southern has had a little run of solid players coming out the past few years and I feel he is another. Hopefully we do our due diligence on him especially with bringing over someone from the Seahawks and how they approach the later rounds.

Current active NFL players from GA Southern, while modest the list is pretty surprising in the consistency and quality.

Just mentioned this in another thread but I’m eyeing David Moore G out of Grambling. Only 6’3” at guard but has long arms and looks the part. Moves really well and finishes plays strongly. Somewhat Hidden because of where he plays but he definitely isn’t an unknown. He is playing in the senior bowl so maybe we get a look. Of course if any of these senior bowl guys pop, then I guess they won’t be hidden gems.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
