For Those who suspect an Edge Rusher in the First


MHS831

Recommended Posts

Clear as day last year after passing on Barnett at 8 this would be the predicament.

Thank goodness for the Richmond Roughriders-signing Hardy and absorbing meaningless bad PR by allowing him to destroy the Arena League on good behavior.  That and the new owner-bringing Kraken home before kickoff 2018.

Walterfootball is not the best place to get info. Also this draft is terrible at edge rusher... value just isn’t there in the first. That said he is rated a late first but with the lack of pass rusher he will get pushed up and will got before 17.

Agree on both counts.  But the content is coming from scouts he surveyed at the combine, supposedly.

This is not going to win me friends,  but I think if we sign Peppers, we are good to go at DE...Peppers and Addison, Horton and Hall, then Cox.  You have to develop the young guys,

It seems like every year  DEs are automatically better than any other position because of the name.

 

B.S.there are TEs definitely better than this guy that should be taken at 24 .

What TEs?  I will bet you that no TE goes before this guy.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
