Love the Czar's hustle. I thought he would knock Gettleman and Rivera for the G we picked up from Valdosta St. Everything I've read says it was a huge reach. I'm not that concerned about the WR spot and I still think LaFell is a decent pass catcher. The DBs are a concern but we have a lot of young talent that didn't seem to keep us from winning late last season. With only 5 picks and 2 of them home runs, I'd give us more like a solid B or even a B+ considering we just shored up the DT spot for the next 3 years at minimum.

The LB and RB we got in the late rounds should pay dividends this season on special teams as well.

Not a flashy draft, but an effective one.

Thanks Czar!

good job as usual, but just to echo what others have said, godfrey got the move from SS to FS where he's much better suited.

 

the need was SS and i think that lester actually might be the guy we needed although mike mitchell that we just picked up in FA a couple weeks ago might be that guy as well.

 

you are right, tho, that S and WR are areas that needed help. we've gotten some, but i don't think it's enough. i still think the draft was just plain good, tho.

I haven't seen anyone refer to Kugbila as a "huge reach".

 

The ones saying reach are the same ones that look at NFL.com and see a 52 draft grade. So they base their opinion off of that score.

      Hey guys, remember when we won those meaningless games in 2010 and it cost us the #1 pick and the chance to draft Cam? Oh.... right I get that's more of an extreme example because it got us a HOF caliber QB.  But it's the general concept, you want to win late season games when you have the pieces in place to make a run the next season, we currently are not in that place. Herbert and Sewell are the ones I point to so much, because we literally lost out on 2 franchise different makers by 1 draft slot.  Give us those two players while we still have CMC, Moore, and the rest of the picks we gave up for Bryce, and we'd have been a legit playoff contender the last few years. Draft position matters in the NFL more than any other sport (other than the #1 pick in the NBA in a year with a generational talent).

      It’s so crazy. If we had a shot for pick 1 and there was some generational player there then yeah maybe I could get behind the draft position argument. I’d say most GMs and coaches aren’t diving into the draft right now. They are trying to win games.
