NFL Draft Scout, Fanspeak, Normal

29: R1 P29, S DERWIN JAMES, FLORIDA STATE
Who was available? Connor Williams, OT, Texas. 
I really thought about taking Williams because I love him as a Guard, but why not strengthen a strength? James is a top flight talent and can take our Secondary even higher.

61: R2 P29, TE MARK ANDREWS, OKLAHOMA
Who was available? Arden Key, Chukwuma Okorafor, Derrick Nnadi. 
Those are all really good talents in the Second Round, but Andrews falling to us there was too good to pass up. Again. 

93: R3 P29, C FRANK RAGNOW, ARKANSAS
Who was available? Kurt Benkert, Nick Chubb, Mike Gesicki. 
I wanted to get an O line player within the first three rounds. I really didn't like passing over Benkert there, but I think Ragnow can fill in on any of the three interior spots.

131: R4 P29, WR DANTE PETTIS, WASHINGTON
Who was available? Luke Falk. 
Okay, I probably should have taken Falk here but I think the world of Pettis. He can push Jaydon at Punt Returner, can fill in on the slot and has a sterling reputation for his work ethic. This takes the sting out of losing Lee and Hurns to Free Agency a bit.

206: R6 P29, RB JAYLEN SAMUELS, NORTH CAROLINA STATE
Who was available? Buncha Nobodies. 
Teach this guy how to play the H-Back spot, touch up the playbook to get him touches and let him be Blake's best friend. He's going to take some brain power on the part of the Coaching Staff to get the most out of him, but I like all the things that he brings to the team.

230: R7 P12, LB GARRET DOOLEY, WISCONSIN
Who was available? Buncha Nobodies with funny names. You want funny names, go read NYC's mock. 
Old school B1G LB who can help out on 'Teams and give spot duty in a pinch.

247: R7 P29, DL JUSTIN JONES, NORTH CAROLINA STATE 
Who was available? Buncha Dudes lookin' for a job. 
Depth for the D-Line.
