Cedric Still Going In The First?


C47

He is in play at 25 that is for sure :)

 

Yea, I've always thought he was gonna be on our short list if he's there. Other guys I would take over him, but he's a very good player with potential to be a great LT.

Good news. Even if he's not there for us he'll have pushed down another player.

I do like him though, I think the OT class is pretty interesting with about 7 names at about the same level: Collins, Peat, Flowers, Fisher, Humphries, Ogbuehi, Clemmings.

I feel like any one of those guys could be gone at 25, but conversely they could also still be on the board at 57.

I feel that our glaring need on this team is still LT... Anyone feeling Oher or Martin as solutions are kidding themselves internally

I don't think anyone believes they're solutions. We should all agree that they're insurance policies so that we don't have to draft a OT just because we need one.

We've heard from multiple "sources" that there are only 10-15 guys with 1st round grades this year. Does that embolden Gettleman to gamble on a seriously injured player?

 

Was this guy a top 5 pick before his injury?

 

And if we make this pick. Isn't this the sort of risk you want your GM to take? We heard Jerry Jones talk about how to win "you have to take risks" in regards to Johnny Manziel. JM was a dumb risk. Is an injured offensive lineman with high character, high football IQ, and great athleticism a better risk? Could we steal our Franchise tackle at pick 25?

 

Gettleman drated Star when many team shied away from his irregular heart beat. Gettleman went with Benjamin when many questioned his weight and motivation. Gettleman isn't afraid to take his kind of guys. When others see questions marks, Gettleman sees bargains.

With all due respect....Star had is heart issue cleared prior to the draft and it wasn't a knee. Think about Jeff Otah.

I'm not comparing a knee to a heart. I'm comparing Gettleman to other GMs. He wasn't easily scared off by health questions when others were. 

 

Jeff Otah was a different body type with a different personality. If we make the pick I will feel good about it because Gettleman will do his homework on the injury.

    • I don’t see the falcons winning, but they won’t lay down against Tampa. I’d expect Thursdays game to be close until the end.    I am really worried about us against the Saints. These NFC South games can go either way, and I don’t trust Bryce; especially against New Orleans. 
    • He is 22nd in comp% ahead of Baker Mayfield, Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix, Michael Penix, Trevor Lawrence, Cam Ward and Caleb Williams.  The league averge is 64.6. Young is currently 63.4%. I'm not sure a little over 1% difference below average is worth complaining about. Youngs' rating is 87.9, just behind Caleb Williams 88.2, Michael Penix 88.5 and CJ Stroud 91.1. Are these stats really what you are using to trash Young with.
    • They lost to the team that was the worst team in the league last year, tied for the worst this year (worst before this win) and traded three defensive starters at the deadline. This stat line is very close to those Bryce had in his game against AZ this year (330yds, 3td, 1 int). Doubt those in this thread were slobbering over it then. Stats tend to accumulate when you throw over 40 times a game. Who cares if you lose. They also blew two key two point conversions.
