Gene Smith would have traded multiple picks to move up in the 2nd to take Blair Brown lol

Definitely
Quote:Daniel Jeremiah giving us praise for Brown
ESPN just praised him too, Mel and Todd, said he is a great tackler, which is what we need
Not feeling these 3rd day picks.
Would rather have had:
4. OG Dorian Johnson (instant starter LG)
5. FS/CB Desmond King (ST, FS, NB)
Did not need WR or LB. Good players, but still.

I trust the opinion of those 3 plus our front office over people who've never seen him play. Call me crazy.
I think we still need a cb. If Jalen/AJ go down wouldn't be good.

CBS grades our picks
Fournette - D: purely cause the writer says you don't take RBs this high. Whatever bro.
Cam - B+
Smoot - B+
Westbrook - A-
Brown - A+

You dont draft need on day 3, you go BAP, your not looking for day 1 starters day 3 your looking for building blocks

Yeah, that was Prisco who graded Fournette a D. What an idiot.
I like what I'm hearing/seeing on Blair Brown. Guy could be a stud. I'd imagine a future replace for Poz. Also being a Hawkeye fan, I think people way over slept on Desmond King. He has a nose for the ball, and will be better than where he was drafted.
WOW!
Brown is tenacious. He's relentless. I project that he'll play SLB in place of Poz when he's unable to keep up.
EXCELLENT Pic Caldwell.
NH3...

Crazy. LOL.

While not the way I would have went on these day 3 picks, no one can complain that they are bad players at all.

I actually agree for the most part.
I'd say:
C
B+
B

Would you guys be ok with Brantley in the 7th?
If we didnt draft Westbrook, I could see it but I dont know if they will double down on guys with that kind of baggage

I think Fournette gets at minimum a B. Fills a need with, arguably, the best RB in the class.
We are going to sink without a back-up plan behind Bortles.
Grading Fournette low simply because he was taken at 4 is just dumb...... That type of mindset makes no sense to me...
It's clear what we thought were needs didn't match the teams..or they went strictly BPA. Either way we added 2 good players so far.
