2017 NFL Draft Day 2 "Game Thread"

[rmw10]

Not a Tabor fan but I actually really like him in Detroit.

[ellicottraven]

Did some quick research on Bowser and I love it! Seems like a 3 down linebacker to me! He can rush the passer or cover. I am just not sure about whether he can set the edge in run stopping support yet. But he is a great coverage linebacker that can even play next to CJ if necessary and if Correa can develop some pass rushing ability.

I remember JuJu being slotted to us at 16. What the hell happened?

I really love what we did so far.  Bowser as our pass rush specialist behind Suggs to rotate with him.  He can cover so he will be a true 3rd down threat and he isn't small but he has room to grow and gain some lean quick-twitch muscle to increase his weight.  Then, you have Humphrey as the zone CB to get the INT with Jimmy Smith and Tavon Young.  This is with Jefferson and Weddle back there at safety and Williams in the middle to keep Mosley and Correa clean. 

Winchester is that you ?

Kaufusi, urban, Henry, ya gotta ride with the young guys sometimes

How did McMillian go over Cunningham?

[SepticeyePoe]

Do they have 32 hats ready for the prospects?

[hn68wb4]

I've never liked Cunningham, but I'm surprised he's still around.

Maybe the best edge athlete in the draft. 

Former bball player so has smooth movements and the footwork to excel in coverage even at the NFl level. 

Solid tackler that can chase down ball carriers. Crazy burst and speed. 

Raw in terms of pass rush ability, but has elite traits that project an ability to become a great one. Bend, feet, strong upper body. 

 

And versatile. Think less polished pass rusher version of Haason Reddick. Could play ILB on early downs if needed but hunt off the edge on the money downs. Great pick

Thank you! Will he be able to set the edge as well? And I'm assuming he has the traits of a 3 down linebacker for us.

I don't think Ju Ju is a second round talent atleast not in teams eyes but we shall see. I honestly think The Ravens take him in the third round.

lol I miss some of the crap he'd say 

[hn68wb4]

I had no idea that the Steelers lost Timmons

[GrimCoconut]

I do hope Wormely is off the board before we pick in the 3rd round. I want no part of that.

True but they haven't showed anything yet still need to add competition that area. Well I hope we take Dawkins and another edge or if Cunningham falls

[Dewy101]

Like the giants keeping the Cowboys o line in check

[rmw10]

I'm surprised Tomlinson didn't get more love amongst most of the draftniks.  Always thought he was a quality player.

[jazz1988]

Dalvin Tomlinson is a  great pick for The Giants. I love him on tape.

He was never a first rounder

That's because your defense shouldn't completely disappear because of ONE GUY> That is just an excuse for Pees. If Suggs goes down, oh it's not Pees' fault the defense is garbage. If Jimmy goes down, oh that isn't Pees' fault they give up 4th quarter leads routinely.

Except that it is a trend since Pees came here. And no one wants to admit it.

Offensively it is because we lack any playmakers at all because we never seem to draft any in the last 5 or 6 years.

 

Top 10 pick spent on OL and last 1st was on a wr.  You can't say they don't try.  As far as Pees, we won a SB his first year at DC.  When his guys are there they are productive, regardless of how you feel about him.

Shocked Awuzie is still there

I think Urban has shown enough to inspire some confidence. If nothing else he can be as solid as Guy out there on running downs.

Reminder: this is a DRAFT thread.  Knock off the hijack attempts.

Actually I never watched him, just wasn't high up on my list of guys to get to

[GrimCoconut]

I do wonder how much further JuJu drops. If we get him with our 3rd round pick that'll be really good for @BmoreBird22 who predicted that in his mock.  I'd be impressed.

Don't assume Kizer is their future.  They still have two firsts next year and plenty of time to tank if they like someone.

If the rumors were right and they liked Mitch (I dont but if they did) they should have said okay and thrown whatever it took to get to 2 and get that guy.  If not then dont waste time being cute trying to maybe find a QB who might be the guy but needs time to develop.  I think the Browns are reasonably close.  They are maybe one more good draft(after this one) away from being the Raiders of two years ago but they need a QB to become that and then to keep developing to become the Raiders of now.

I think The Ravens still draft a  defensive end though probably in the fourth or fifth round. It's either that or sign a veteran defensive end.

I hope they're not waiting for the next Ramon harewood

Big reason why I've always enjoyed that forum mock game.  Never would have really cared about him since I didn't think the Ravens would be interested, but he was a guy I looked into for the team I was running.  Exposes me to a lot more players.

I'm high on Ryan Glasgow
