Another 4th/5th round prospect.  Sure hands and returns kicks too.

 

I also am a big fan of Jones, would love that pick.

Ivan pace jr.  5’11 231 

Small but plays big .. Big heart big hitter big plays.. Not afraid to take on Guards or Tackles .. 4th to 6th round option because of size.. One of favorite players in this draft..

 

I feel like Pace would be getting more attention if he was bigger, I think he’ll have a solid career though.

We could use a player like this guy. But like you said he needs to gain some mass to be a dangerous threat to opposing teams.

Perfect 3rd or 4th round pick.  I still think we need to trade back in the second and pick up an extra 3rd.  Target Derek Hall, Eli Ricks, and Schoonmaker

AT Perry from Wake could wind up being a steal in the 3rd.

I love AT perry but after the signing that is 3 of the same type of WR on the roster then.. TMJ, Charlotte and Preston Williams are all similar body types to AT .. Plus AT doesn’t add any special team impact..

My Pace love is based on his pit bull mentality.. I’ve seen bigger players run away from Olinmen .. This dude is outweighed by atleast 100 pounds in those matches up and takes them on head up.. And wins !!

I honestly don't think that Chark and Thielen are going to dramatically alter our draft plans.  Chark is on a one year prove it deal to stay healthy. If he does, then a long-term deal is certainly possible. Thielen is a 33 year old stop gap. The draft should be about trying to find long-term solutions, not quick fix bandaids. Quick fix bandaids is what second and third tier free agency is about.

I can agree but I do think they want a contributor with the top 3 picks.. And at this point I don’t think AT can climb the depth chart.. Then he has no special team ability.. So your 2nd or 3rd round pick is barely getting a jersey on game day.. JMO

I think we want a contributor with #39 but with a late 3rd rounder you're reaching pretty hard to try to find an instant impact guy at most positions. I'd prefer to think longer term at that point.

Agree to disagree.. I think with all top 100 picks you should be looking for some kind of contribution.. Either battling for a starting spot in camp, or Special team starter or 3rd down specialist..  4th and 5th are for depth and future predictions moves..

The future could be now though. I mean, Chark has one helluva injury history.

That’s cool.. But you still have options.. We can do the same scenario for other positions and it looks way bleaker.. Burns get hurt, Jaycee gets hurt, We would be in horrible spot..

Sounds like drafting with desperation. Use cheap free agents for these things. There are still roster cuts to come.

I mean, if you're relying on a late 3rd round rookie to be forced into a starting role at a key position, you're probably already fuged anyway.
