Here's the scoop on the players for Supplement Draft

While I agree we won't.  We did send someone to Beal's or Anderson's pro day.  

Even if we did I would see any one of the non-playoff teams bidding on him before us.

 

yep, I could see us throwing out a fifth, but we won't get the chance.

This guy is worth it ! 

Brandon Bryant, SS, Mississippi State: There are always spots in the NFL for talented athletes with exceptional physical traits. That's why scouts were paying close attention to Bryant as a prospect after he earned recognition as one of the most explosive college football players in 2016 and '17. Despite failing to perform up to lofty expectations during his pro day, Bryant posted respectable numbers for his position (checking in at 5-foot-11 and 207 pounds with 4.45/4.52 40 times, a 34-inch vertical and a 10-3 broad jump) in front of representatives from 14 teams.

On tape, Bryant flashes decent movement skills, range and toughness, but he isn't a playmaker in the back end. Although he tallied five career interceptions as a Bulldog, he snagged three of those picks in 2015 and didn't make much of an impact after his initial success. With questions surrounding his work ethic, discipline and attention to detail after his on-field (blown coverages) and academic struggles, Bryant is likely to be a seventh round/priority free agent prospect on most boards around the leag

In my mind, you don't dismiss the supplemental draft out of hand.  You have to look at your own needs, consider who will be available respective to each position in next year's draft, assign a valuation, and make a determination from there.

Basically, the smart GM looks at the bigger picture.

As an MSU alum who watched him play in college, I’d pass unless it was a 7th. He had a decent freshmen year then he just ended up having some mental issues. His dad passed away after his freshmen year and unfortunately he just never recovered. His instincts were just awful at some points, he never could figure out how to take the right angle when closing and missed a LOT of tackles

I posted this in one of the other unnecessary 3,000 supplemental draft threads this offseason - but I would probably pass on all of these guys. Maybe burn a 6th or 7th on one of the corners but that would be it. These dudes all have red flags and are accompanied with baggage. The guys that got the boot because of grades, I mean come on bro there are people on campus giving you extra benefits and multiple chances and you still can’t pull in a 1.75 or whatever it is.

    • Bryce has been playing the best ball of his career the last three games IMO. He wasn't the reason we dropped the game in NOLA. Seattle's defense will be his toughest challenge yet this season 
    • I'll be at the game Sunday and up until last year I had a perfect attendance record. Now however I have seen us lose to the Chiefs (last year) and the Bills (this year). So we can no longer rely solely on my ability to pound overpriced beers to propel us to a win. 
    • I haven't been able to watch Seattle on a dedicated basis but the Seahawks are a much better team by the all accounts: eye test, record and DVOA. Defensively they are sick. Best DVOA in the league first in rushing and second in passing. Offensively their passing game has been on fire this year led by JSN I can easily see this being like the Buffalo game where things just get out of hand for us early, that being said this league really is week to week and Seattle does have the disadvantage of traveling cross country for an early game.  If and big if, the Panthers are able to effectively run the ball and limit the amount of time Seattle's offense has to generate explosive plays we have a path to winning this game.  Seattle fans won't be happy to hear this but bad Darnold is always lurking in the background. He is truly an enigma to root for bc he will have an incredible throw that only a few people can make but then will turn around and throw the most bone headed pick of all time.  I think ultimately we drop this one as ultimately it's human nature to be looking forward to that week 18 game. But man how special would it be to be leaving the stadium on Sunday with a win and a miracle dolphins upset
