Day of Draft Rumors


Recommended Posts

Before I head into work-some things I've seen floating around today:

  • Daniels seems a lock at #2
  • Pats seem locked on Maye at #3, AZ with Marv at #4
  • LAC-Latham love is real, but fans want Nabers - To trade or not to trade?
  • Philly has multiple people thinking they're trading up, same with the Cards from Pick 27
  • Falcons are definitely taking calls at 8 depending on who's available 
  • Bills are making calls and want a receiver

Feel free to add more as things trickle in today - looking at you tweet embedders (+Juan)

Maye at 3 seems like a steal

Maybe, that footwork is horrendous. 

people only care about footwork when the ball ain't going where it needs to be.  Lot of the best QBs in the NFL have mechanics you would rage against the average QB adopting.  I mean, Mahomes is hopping on one foot throwing the ball lefthanded underneath his leg with his eyes closed.  But it lands in Kelce's hands for TD.

JPJ is a available at 33#,i hope that's true.

It is starting to look like it--such a run on WR at the end of the draft--

If Nix is there, it could make pick #33 marketable.  Same for JPJ.

 

Powers-Johnson (C)  To me, a pro-bowl level C for the next decade is worth a second rounder.  (see Kalil, Ryan)

Legette (WR)   There are rumors that Kansas City and New England like him.

Coleman (WR)  An early favorite, he has tailed off.  The big Mike Evans WR Canales may covet?

Sainitstril (CB) Lotta folks projecting the nickel CB to the Panthers

Rakestraw (CB) Probably not.

Pearsall (WR)  Possible, but only if we trade back to the mid second?

Wilson (LB)  I can't see Morgan not falling in love with Wilson.  We always seem to draft LBs when we think we don't need them  (Beason to replace Morgan; Luke to replace Beason)

Cooper (LB) He can't read the play as quickly as Wilson, but he is a dawg who can cover ground.  I'd take him over Wilson due to the injury history--since I do not have access to medicals)

Franklin (WR)  The guy nobody is talking about. 

Worthy (WR)  The success of Zay Flowers and Tank Dell have helped Worthy.

Frazier (C)

    • 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
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
