Best Case Pick in 2nd?

Recommended Posts

I am not a big draft geek but I do start paying attention this time of year.  I think I am up to date on our first round pick in that it is totally up in the air.  We could pick BPA or trade back.  Thursday after next is going to be a good night.

But in looking at some of the picks that could be available to us the next night at 39, is Pat Freiermuth, Penn St TE too early?  I saw his highlights and loved how he shined.  I am assuming Pitts will be gone at 8 and I hope we get OL in first so I see second round as CB (Kelvin Joseph?)  Best way to improve our pass rush is adding competent cover corners but still jonesing for Freiermuth. 

Would love to hear about other 2nd round targets.

Depends on where we go at 8 or in the first in general with a trade back possibly but I’m a big fan of the 2nd tier OL 

Alex Leatherwood OL Alabama brings versatility, could play tackle or guard. 

Dillon Radunz OT NDSU another second round tackle who could be a steal 

Richie Grant safety UCf Rhule raves about this kid at the senior bowl and fills a position of need

I would love any of these guys at 39.

I'd love for Asante Samuel Jr to be there but I doubt it 

I'm hoping we see a good bit of progress from Pride Jr TBH. I think with a little seasoning he could be average to good for us. But I do want some actual corner depth for sure, or if another good OL is there I say jump on that ish

They did a good job in the offseason setting up for the draft so it could go alot of ways in that top 50. GM said OL, DL and CB are priorities so focus is there.

S - Moehrig, Grant

CB - Newsome, Stokes, Samuel Jr.

DT - Onwuzurike, Baremore

OL - Dickerson, Radunz, Eichenburg, Humphrey

All 3 of these, or Freiermuth would be good at 39, IMO. Obviously, depending on what we do in the 1st rd.

Good list there! 
 

moehrig is steadily rising, some think he doesn’t make it out of the first anymore. 
 

the only OL I’m not thrilled about is Dickerson, I’m just really really frightened by the list of injuries he complied in college But if he could remain healthy I think that’s a starting guard and eventual Paradis replacement

If we do not pick a LT at 8 I think we need to at 39. Radunz is a good option. I would not complain about Leatherwood or Eichenberg either. There is a pretty good T at Oklahoma that good be an option but I think he has played a lot on the right recently.

If we get a LT in round 1 then we could go a lot of different ways in R2- Safety (T. Moehrig if he falls or J. Holland) or another good O lineman (L. Dickenson, Davis, maybe Humphrey) would be my top options. I'd like a TE too, but besides Pitts, I am not sure there's another TE I'd pick before R3 (just my Opinion).

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
