Draft a Franchise: Discussion Thread part 2!

I love the Jed Collins pick. One of the more underrated FBs, in my opinion.

 

 

He was going to be my back up pick at FB after Casey, nice pick.

Thanks a lot

Sorry for the delay, work sucks.

Weighed several options here but went with another Ayer to make my offense even more elite. Andre brown is the perfect compliment to my stable of backs. Fantastic in short yardage and underrated in the open field. He had the fourth highest ypc/rush of all running backs last year. He can also hold up in pass protection as one of only 25 backs who graded positively in this category last year by pff.

By the way, everyone who has signed up for the continuation but hasn't signed up for the new board, please do so as soon as possible so that we can get the ball rolling.

Love the Andre Brown selection as well. Terrific complementary back.

Thanks appreciate the compliment. I wanted a deadly ball field like the saints had in their best years to be able to hold any lead.

FYI. I have not had a chance to sign up for the continuation but left my pick with Horus. John Kuhn.

I can always appreciate the value of a deep backfield. Awesome. Thank you very much.

That makes two of us, especially since I'm slightly drawn towards pairing a speed RB with a power back.

I wasnt planning on it, just because it will take some time to do that. If any team wants I to do so I can. I will start with your team since you asked.

I really liked your team, as you can tell from the ranking. I feel like it is very well balanced all around. You have a solid if not spectacular OL. Davis is an elite RT and I like your guards a lot. Hardwick and Dunlap are solid players as well. You have an excellent young QB and you provided him with good, veteran, receiving options and a very potent rushing tandem.

On defense your team should have an elite pass-rush between Suh and Dunlap, and you have some very good run defenders up front as well. Shaun Phillips is our of position IMO, but I really like Foster and and Burnett. Your secondary is also very strong with Joseph as a #1 CB and one of the best safeties in the game with Earl Thomas. Corey Graham is a solid #2 CB and Kirkpatrick could become a very good player.

Not many, if any, weaknesses on this team. I think the biggest weakness is a lack of speed on offense, but your WRs are experienced and should be able to get open for Luck.

I would love to hear your analysis on my team if you get a chance and wouldn't mind.

I'm surprised no one made the most important pick of them all.

 

Fine.

 

 

I select

 

 

 

 

^^^

Joke

 

I thought about it, I'd start him over Ponder.

I liked Jordan Mills as a prospect, so I'm not overly surprised, but it doesn't look promising for Webb.

 

It might not look promising for Webb on the Bears' O-Line but for Prophet's team he's the only RT prospect he's got lol

I really wanted us to get Jordan Mills. I was bummed when they took him

I like mills as well, but I was really happy with what we saw of Wagner so far. He was very solid vs Tampa. What seems to have been lost in all the wr hullabaloo was how well the entire second string o line performed.

Thamks for the link. Good read. I was a bit concerned with gradkowskis performance watching the game. I hope to see him progress this week. If yanda suits up next to him that should help as well. Hopefully wagner gets another extended look at him. He was very solid run and pass blocking. Not sure why harewood would be listed as a tackle. He is a good guard.

As for the d line rotation. The potential of this group is jst sick. The inly puzzling decision to me is the mcphee switch to olb as the writer points out.
