Ok. So. Looks like Herndon's got his work cut out for him this summer for his job. That's three guys that can play nickel we just took.

Draft pundits are meh.  They just do entertainment.

Well of course, but that’s what I’m curious about.  There are a few people on here that thought highly of him.

I hope I don’t come off as disrespectful, but a lot of people on here pay attention and favor SEC football more than any other conference, whether they choose to admit it or not.

at least a depth/special teams guy

Fix the O-Line!

Does being a late round pick in a weak draft lessen the amount of money being paid on the contracts? Perhaps the GM saw an opportunity for cheap (albeit weak) prospects. If the prospects overperforms; that's great and they're cheap, and if they don't, well, they're cheap.

Vorhees, Kuntz, and Ricks

What conference wins the championship the most often? I hope my question comes off as disrespectful.

This is going to be a big draft class.

This is all a major attempt to front load the roster with cheap labor in hopes of developing them into starters by 2024, 2025.

Lawrence is going to cost us probably $300M. You can fully expect Baalke to draft more offensive lineman next year early on.

I am willing to bet they wanted to trade up for another lineman in this draft but couldn't pull one off that made sense.

I know people were high on Torrence here but it feels like this staff was getting scheme specific in this draft and they don't want to take the wait and see approach with another class.

After Walker and Lloyd's slow progress as rookies? Can't say I blame them for this specific approach during this draft. The biggest. I mean, BIGGEST hope for 2023 is Walker and Lloyd solving our pass rushing woes and Caldwell being a more comfortable, confident and competent play caller as a 2nd year defensive coordinator.

Baalke loaded this class up with picks. Went heavy on defense today and is covering his [BLEEP] in this situation.

*attempt* being the operative word here

That is a really high number of flyers. 

I hope 2 or 3 of these long shots pay off. Odds are stacked against us, but I do like the upside and traits on a few of these picks. 

Fingers crossed we end up with solid cheap labor at a few spots.

Hey, we have two back to back pics coming .

With a 7th round pick, hoping for OG (was a RT in college) Cooper Hodges. 6'4" 311 prospect that made a 30 visit to the Bank...

"2022 ALL-SUN BELT CONFERENCE FOOTBALL FIRST TEAM: OL - Cooper Hodges, App State (RS Jr., OL - Glen St. Mary, Fla.),...Four-time All-Sun Belt selection and a third-team All-American from PFF College...Made 51 straight starts at right tackle and played 838 snaps in 2022 ... Overall blocking grade of 85.3 from PFF this season ranks fifth overall among starting FBS offensive tackles and No. 1 among starting right tackles at the FBS level ... Run-blocking grade of 86.2 is also fifth nationally among starting FBS offensive tackles and No. 1 among starting right tackles ... Two-year captain allowed just one sack and two QB hits in (428 pass-block snaps) in 2022. - Appalachian State Football"

I like it on paper.  Cross your fingers.
