NFL Draft is a month out and I still have no Idea who we're looking at?

Ok, so where do you guys think we go in the draft this year? This is the first time I've not had any clue since we drafted Everrett Brown(not a good draft either).  Last year we knew there was 3-4 people we were looking at and everyone and their Grandma knew we would pick Star if he landed in our lap which he did.

 

So where do you think we will go this year WR? OL? or another suprise possition Pick? and who do you feel will be this years "Star".

 

I honestly feel we need to go WR, but as far as who I dont have a clue.

1. Cooks

2. Kouandjio

3. Fuller

 

In that order if available.  And while a legit argument could be made that none will be available, IMHO at least one will be, and I think it will be Cyrus, who has the highest upside of all.

There is a pretty extensive list in the Draft section of the board that lists all players we have met with and worked-out thus far. It paints a pretty good picture on what positions and players we have been targeting. Worth a look for sure. 

 

Thanks for the heads up, according to that list though Ebron is the only player we've taken a second look at so far, I would be happy with him.  I've said earlier I wouldnt mind a 2 TE set because of the mis-match it would create.

BPA! Simple as that as don't lock in on one position even one where we don't need a player at, The Giants were known for drafting players in positions which were already strong and I see that as Gettlemans philosophy!

 

They will probably go BPA based on possition of need, you dont draft another star QB just because he's the best player on the Board.

I actually have no idea. I think that this year there is a lot of homework being done because the draft is so deep. In previous years, there was a sure fire, "yeah-we-would-take-that-player" scenario, but now? Who knows. There's about eight prospects I'd be fine if we got.

As stated in another thread, my "Star" players for this draft are Marquise Lee and Taylor Lewan.  They're the guys I would LOVE to fall to us (and it's not outside the realm of possibility for it to happen).  More realistic options I hope we're looking hard at, in order:  OBJ, Benjamin, Jordan Matthews, Cooks.  I'm not sold on Zach Martin but most say the value would be there at #28.  I just don't see him as an NFL LT.  I could easily be wrong, but he'd be the only OL that could likely be available for us that I wouldn't scoff at with Greg Robinson, Jake Matthews and Taylor Lewan likely gone.

    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
