Round 4 Pick 120: Brandon Smith, LB, Penn State

[MrBubba]

Got the tools, needs to buy in and get coached up.  

[Byrdman4real]

Reddick replacement 

[Waldo]

Sounds great. Another box checked.

Anybody else not hear a damn thing about BPA vs needs since we picked at 6? Huh, weird how they are trying to do both this year yet some said it shouldn't be done. 

[WOW!!]

Love this pick and love this player..

His issue is processing.  However, a 5 star recruit who probably was always able to get by on his athleticism (like Cam) so his processing is not as developed as someone who needs it to compete.

The details of the trade:

The Washington Commanders traded the 120th pick and 189th pick to the Carolina Panthers for the 144th pick and 149th pick.

This was a good move, Scott Fitterer.

 

Man I enjoy Fitterer’s drafts so much more than Hurney or Gettleman.

It's like there's an actual plan in the draft. Why hadn't anyone thought of that before?

Trade down last year, up this year. Main focus on high RAS player and value. 11 players last, 3 thus far and those are LT, QB, OLB/edge/LB the most valuable spots??

That's a man with a plan.

Freak athlete, just doesn't have LB instincts.

I fuging love this pick! Has the highest ceiling of any of these LB’s, Troy Anderson went day 2 and we got the same if not better type of athlete in day 3. Let’s go frittergoat!

[Snake]

Well we need LBs so this works.

Trust the program.  Given the trade comp, we definitely had him pegged as a 3rd (or maybe 2nd rounder)

That's basically the draft.  LT, QB, LB

Those were three areas left vacant after FA, we definitely seemed to have had a plan, target players, and we are executing and adding guys with ELITE traits with HIGH upside. 

[WOW!!]

Finally another Big MLB and stop with these Midgets in the Middle..

Yes. Got to coach him up. I will 100% take my chances teaching a 9.99 ras guy rather than a 1.07 guy. Its the 4th round too.
