Draft a Franchise: Discussion Thread part 2!

[ravensdan]

I think davis is a lot better than a tight end 2 if he can fully come back from injury he is an upper echelon player.

As for verner the titans are moving him to sfety so not sure what to think about him as an outside corner.

[Mt. Crushmore]

just to make sure you're on the ball

I'm always on the ball.

[CARavensFan]

he'll probably play safety this season though, Titans really look stacked at the back

 

True they are doing better in that area, but Verner has always been a solid, if unexciting CB.

 

I like Davis too but not right now. Honestly I would have taken a TE I signed in our other mock as well as Peyton's pet or The Legend as a complement. I wouldn't have taken them yet because I don't see the value but that would've been my strategy.

I kept names hidden to protect the innocent.

 

There are some that I would have taken over him, but he is still a solid option at TE.

 

The value would depend on if you feel good about the remaining TEs, if there is no one you like and you still need a TE then he would be good value here.

Oh I agree I think Davis can be a top TE in this league, if he comes back from his injury, though if you do then you need to have a good blocking TE as your No. 2. My point was he could be lethal as a No. 2 because of his mismatch potential.

Is this in the literal way like you have an exercise ball chair..I know I did for several years and actually enjoyed it alot.....

[codizzle]

I don't know how I feel about these recent picks. The best one by far is Verner

Oh it stings

[codizzle]

Well if my turn comes out very soon, I'll need a few to ignite out who I'm takin now

I actually do have one and its awesome.

[ravensdan]

If anyone is upcoming and needs to leave I can make a pick, I am stuck at home all day today.

[easternshore97]

Verner is a solid No. 2 CB, if I wasn't already set at CB he would have been on my list of guys to pair with Gilmore.

I also like the Fred Davis pick, he's still coming back from injury so there is risk there, but he was pretty good in the passing game. IMHO he's make a great TE2 if your first guy is a decent block, kinda how Gronk and Hernandez were before they fell apart here recently

Fred Davis will be playing in the slot for me since he's already told me he doesn't plan on blocking like a TE.

Plus, most of the bonafide #2s are off the board at this point and I prefer his receiving and route running skills to most of the other guys left. And he's only 27

I have no issues with the pick of Davis, like I said I love the guy and I was thinking of taking him later as a sleeper pick.

[Guest nflfan123]

Who's up

[Gordo52]

Love the Fred Davis pick. Didn't know he was still there

[Guest nflfan123]

Is Dubs online?

[Dubs]

Pick is up and PM sent to Challenge

 

I really like Bethea, really underrated and can do everything. Has been one of the few stable things in Indy for a while

[ravensdan]

Interesting, konz has gotten off to a poor start so far.

I don't normally do this - revealing my strategy and all, but at this point I'm going to need to play power football and employ a modified 2 TE approach

Peter Konz?!

On Wisconsin baby!

You have no idea how much I hate you right now

Ha I can only imagine. When I saw everyone talking about how there were no good Safeties left I was really hoping it wasnt a guise so they could get Bethea, luckily I landed him. I also just love watching him he is one of those safeties who really knows how to find running lanes, shoot through and make plays...Plus he always place his helmet where the ball is its crazy

Bethea was a nice pick... there certainly were good safeties left. 

[Geving]

Good pick in Bethea, Konz, not so much.

[codizzle]

I'm okay with the konz pick.. As long as he is playing center

Good pick, he was on my list for my next pick or two to finish my secondary.

True, but last year he played at Guard which isn't his natural position. Also there aren't a whole lot of Centers left to pick from and Konz is young and still has the talent and upside that had him in the discussion for a 1st round pick a few years ago.

Hmm well that's going to be interesting, you're second TE will need to be a better blocker then

You forced my hand into 

[Guest nflfan123]

His second TE will be Bear Pascoe

[SecretAgentMan]

Should I play Verner at FS or CB?

Versatility always makes drafting easier later on...Basically make the decision later so you are not forced into a pick, he can play either
