***Official Rounds 2-3 Draft Thread***
|
After disappointment for how it went last night (strategy wise, I'm not knocking the players we drafted)there's lots of good talent on the board left. A lot.
Even on the defense the top safeties are there, there are CBs that have really good value on day 2 like Jaylon Johnson, Fulton,Hall, Troy Pride Jr, Amik Robertson (slot), Robinson and others. There are DL like Blacklock who is great value from now on, Gallimore, Davon Hamilton, Davidson, OL like Cushenberry, Josh Jones, Jonah Jackson, Lucas Niang, Matt Peart, Prince Tega Wanogho, Matt Hennessy, Damien Lewis, Robert Hunt, Muti, Lemieux and others. I really like Kmet among TEs, I think he'll be a really good pro. There are tons of WRs (I love Mims potential, could be a better ARob), there are intriguing LB, edge and OLB options (with a possible move towards more of a 3-4 at this point OLB that start to fall could be valuable in our scheme too). There are very good RBs My main concern is that last night we had a chance to select premium OL/WR talent and they were possibly BAP too. I'm not against the players we drafted, I think both are good players that can be really really good in this league. But to me it was really important to give help to Minshew. Now the "risk" is that while we still have the chance to give him help, with all the defensive talent on the board a defensive player will still be the BAP available and would also fill a need. But how long can we keep going defense and not adding to the offense? If Delpit/Winfield are there at 42 can we blame them for taking Delpit over offense? We have a backup/rotational starter in Wilson and behind him and Harrison we have zero depth there. There are CBs like the ones mentioned above that in other classes would have probably been first rounders: could we be too mad if we doubled down taking one of them instead of offense? (I think Herndon can develop as a nice CB2 but even so...DJ Hayden is on the final year of the contract and we may be looking at Herndon to take over in the slot...and well you can never have too many good CBs). Same thing with DTs... Had we helped at least the offensive line last night I would be less conflicted on what to do tonight. I don't want to wait till day 3 to give help to the OL but at the same time It sucks a bit to miss out on a top safety or a great value defensive player in the third because we haven't addressed offense at all before. Either way I hope that we finally get more aggressive with all the picks we have. Move back into the second round with our third rounder (should cost one of our extra 4th and maybe a sixth eventually) and consider doing the same thing into the third round if someone is really sliding. We aren't drafting 12 players anyway and we have 120M in cap space next year, be aggressive now if the guys we like are there. I'm crossing my fingers we find real quality talent to upgrade at least RG today to make up for the disappointment of not upgrading OL last night and I admit I'm equally intrigued at the idea of adding talent to our secondary as conflictual as it may sound with the "let's help the offense" reasoning I just mentioned. My worst nightmare is a RB (though there are few I like) before day 3 at this point...there are too many holes to fill to take one. |
