Seven Things With SAM~Draft Edition

[SecretAgentMan]

Not even close.

 

We needed an Inside linebacker. We got one. Arthur Brown couldn't take the job last year so why would we expect him to earn it this year?

 

Canty was bad and Art Jones is gone. We addressed Defensive Tackle with a guy who slid because of a drug test. So that is 2 projected first round picks so far that will most likely start for us.

 

We needed  a safety. We got Terrance Brooks who will compete with Stewart. Another need filled.

 

Kubiak utilizes 3 Tight End sets. We only really have 2 tight ends right now. We addressed that need with our inline tightend pick who can be a very effective blocker helping our run game. Another need filled.

 

We got even more depth on the DL in Brent Urban so we can spell our lineman and be more effective rushing the passer and stopping the run. That was a need as well.

 

Ozzie said they needed to add a RB and they did. Need filled.

 

They had terrible play at Guard and Center last year. They got that need filled too with Urschel.

WR was filled with Campanaro who will learn behind Steve Smith (who filled a need) so that when SSmith is gone we should have a guy there. Need filled.

 

This was a great draft.

We didn't get a RT or a Corner in the draft but we did get Hurst in UDFA and they trust Wagner.

 

Again, GREAT draft.

And if one of the Smith's go down with an injury we are screwed. Camp is slot only and Marlon is on the fence.... I don't think Jacoby is a great WR.

I don't understand why so many people are clammering for WR help. We have plenty of them and some good ones to boot. What we need is O-line help because even our depth players give me nightmares (Reid, Shipley, Gino). We also desperately need CB depth.

 Ok, if Flacco goes down we are screwed? If one of the Smith's goes down we aren't screwed.

 

If Steve goes down

 

WR1: Torrey

WR2: Marlon Brown

TE1: Pitta

TE2: Owen Daniels

 

We get more chain movers in.

 

If Torrey goes down

 

WR1: Smith

WR2: Marlon

WR3: Jacoby

TE1: PItta

 

We add Jacoby to get the speed.

 

Why is Marlon on the fence?! Don't understand why people keep saying that.
