Browns

Ravens

49ers, Browns, Bucs, Saints, Chargers, Redskins, Jags, Bills were all strong to me.

The Brown if I had to pick one team, we had a good first 3 rounds. Not sure about the DE/LB/CB we took yet. We really could have used Asiata or some other OG to help this line, not confident in the depth guys we have. 

Quote:Colts did decent. Hooker and Wilson

 

 

Agreed. These two picks suddenly transform the Colts secondary into a contender.

I think we'll see a lot of Fournette plowing over Hooker.  That was his strength, and Hooker's weakness (missing tackles.)

Haha... it would be just like when Fred ran over Doss.

For what it's worth, here's Tony Pauline's take...

I'm told the Seattle Seahawks are overjoyed with their draft, as seven of the players they selected graded as first- or second-rounders on their board.

Probably, Malik McDowell, Nazair Jones, Amara Darboh, Shaquil Griffin, Delano Hill, Ethan Pocic and Tedric Thompson.

Nazair Jones?  A second-round grade?  Interesting if true.   I think he's a useful phone-booth-type D-lineman, but everything I read pre-draft had him mid-fourth or later.

I agree.  But I think he had a better Junior year and he was fighting a rare disease called Complex Pain Syndrome.

I was incidentally waiting in a security line with him at the Ft.Lauderdale airport a few days prior to the combine.  He was carrying gear in a NC bag that had his name clearly marked on it so I wished him luck at the combine, assuming that was where he was headed. He's a very large human.

They said they had a 1st round grade on Jarran Reed last year.  Clearly, they grade different from everybody else.  This is interesting.

Also, there's this.  Which is probably why Indianapolis just hired Ed Dobbs away from Seattle.
