Non-OTs or WRs we could target in the 1st

Outside of the obvious two Safeties, another guy I think we could look at is Arik Armstead if we truly have no intention of bringing Hardy back.  NFL.com lists him as a DT, but I think he could get leaner and play DE for us.  6'8 290 is what he's listed at now, think I read somewhere he was playing in college at 285.  I think he's being talked about as a potential first round guy, could be there when we pick and seems he'd be versatile enough to fill part of Hardy's roles (run stopper, could offer some pass rush, move inside on passing downs).  If we're looking at a DL in the first, I hope it's this guy.  I don't buy that we need another DT right now, not a 1st round pick on one anyway.  A big DE that has the tools to dominate?  Yes please.

CB: If Jalen Collins falls, yes please.  Quentin Rollins could be a reach but a possibility. 

 

SS: Shaq Thompson, yes please.  Seems to be a dropoff after Landon and Shaq at SS.   

 

There's also a sleeper for us at OLB that would fit perfectly with TD and Luke ---that's Paul Dawson

 

Armstead seems like a guy Arians would go after for his defense, I wouldn't be mad though.  I don't know about their 1st round value but Carl Davis and Xavier Cooper at DT would be some guys to take note of that could fill D'wan's role.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
