Probably Baalke's worst pick since being here imo. Hopefully Strange can prove everyone wrong

Strange is an H-Back. That pick makes sense. He's going to be like a lead blocking FB but will do a lot of misdirection routes and catches out of the backfield. Clearly a system fit and pick. Probably a Pederson pick.

Strange fights his way off the line of scrimmage against press coverage, showing quick, violent hands and good balance.
An excellent blocker on the outside, Strange also adds value in the running game.
He’s also a catch-and-run threat, a creative runner who has good vision in the open field; he’ll be an option to return kicks as well.
Shows good sense as a route runner and provides an enormous catch radius over the middle of the field. Strange has soft hands and uses his frame effectively to shield defenders, making him a major threat in the red zone.
Size limitations are obvious, but he's a tough pound-for-pound blocker.
Looks to get involved downfield and will block multiple defenders on a single play when he can. Understands his role as a blocker.


Everything they’re touting, Washington does better.

Washington must have a red flag that scares off teams.

Worst pick but he hasn't even played one down in the NFL? LOL.

He made a lot of big catches down the field and he gets after it blocking. You're gonna love him as a player.

I do know the player and I’m not whining. I said it earlier, Brenton Strange was one of “my guys” in this draft. I would have been happy with him at the end of round 3. I would have done back flips if we got him in the 4th, but in the second and passing up on Torrence feels like a bad decision.

He's not a bad fit actually. From what I am seeing. It's funny they picked him because I was looking at Oklahoma's Brayden Willis for this specific role as a RD6, RD7 pick.

He fits this offense. Look at this highlight reel and you'll see exactly what I mean.

Washington keeps falling.  There may be something about him we don't know that is scaring teams away.  He may not be on our list of 127 guys they are really targeting.

We will see if he turns out to be better than Torrence and if so I'll eat crow but I'm betting on Torrence the better player as well as many others still on the board

I don’t know guys… this was a terrible pick. No way around it. Probably could have picked him in the 5th round.

Strange had 32 receptions for 362 yards and 5 TD last season. He’s 6’3 256 pounds.

He has outstanding hands and quick feet for a big guy. Not a lot of production on paper. Unless Lawrence had a say in this pick, it was an off the wall pick.

But on the flip side, it opens Pederson’s playbook even more since he likes dual TE sets. I’d take strange of Manhertz or Farrell.

Guys, take a look at the players they brought in to Jacksonville.

I seen something the other day skimming through twitter that said his medical wasn't good. Likely why he's falling.

You gonna be the "Jags GM knows so much more than everyone" guy after some of the drafts we've had?  Really?
