The 4th Round Big Board for non-scoffers


MHS831

Recommended Posts

Before you scoff, and some of you are frequent scoffers, allow me to read my resume:

ROUND 2:  I predicted that we would draft YGM

ROUND 2: I predicted that we would trade back up into the second round for a DB. (I just thought CB, but Chinn might be that to a degree)

ROUND 3:  I had Chinn second on my big board when the Panthers moved up to get him.

So scoff if you want--scoff away.  They scoffed Benjamin Franklin before he became president, They scoffed Edison before he cured polio, and they scoff me now. 

Here we go for round 4:

ROUND 4 BIG BOARD FOR THE NON-SCOFFING FOOTBALL INTELLECTUALS:  This round is set up nicely to grab Offensive line depth.  Do not underestimate Ismael, C/G from SD State. He is the perfect candidate to provide depth at G/C while being groomed to start at C in 2021.  There are a few raw tackles with upside.  Of course, Lynch (a hard-working, high motor, a bit undersized interior DL--might be there, but I am not as high on him as some of you--he is a limited tweener, but the kind of guy who gives you 100% every play. 

Somehow, we have managed to avoid the strengths of this draft (OT, CB, WR) and still have done well.  If Robertson is there, take him and deal with his height later; but this is the round to get that developing OL with starting potential.  I would celebrate any of the OL listed below.

 

1Amik Robertson CB La Tech (has to be the player we are eyeballing now

Saahdiq Charles OT LSU  (good depth T who needs strength and a year or two to compete for a starting gig)

5Tyler Biadasz C Wisconsin  (once I thought he was overrated, but not here--4th round).

Prince Tega Wanogho OT Auburn  (A development OT in the fourth....why not?)

James Lynch DT/DE Baylor  (Versatile and high motor---very much in favor)

Keith Ismael, C, SD State  (Kalil-type center--can play G-underrated--needs a year to develop, has shot at starting.)

Other possibilities

Akeem Davis-Gaither OLB App St  (Good athletic OLB)

Jake Fromm, QB Georgia  (Once one of the top QB prospects, now his value is down--give him 2-3 years as a backup. He will be a solid backup that could become a starting QB in time)

Troy Pride, CB, Notre Dame  (a bit underrated, never going to star--fifth round, maybe)

Bryce Hall CB---He could be in play here.

 

My pick prediction:  Robertson, CB La Tech because I know we have shown interest.

I would draft: Ismael, C, SD State or one of the OTs.

I’d rather have Bryce Hall at corner - big and physical with the skills to develop into a press CB.

also like Lynch and Ismael.  Davis-Gaither would also be a great pick here.  I’m an App State guy and watched him play a lot...fast, smart, great instincts, and has a ton of heart

What are your thoughts on Bryce Hall?

I like him, but I heard some injury stuff on him.  Sorta like a Bradberry?  I am not sure what kind of CBs they are looking for---To be honest, he is in play here--I missed it.  Good catch.  What do you think of Hall?

Check out Ismael.  I think I like him more than Biasasz or whatever.

Eh I live in Madison so I’m probably biased but he’s a good player. He plays mean. And he’s smart with strong hands. He has the arm length to play guard for a couple years until he can make the move to center and learn under paradis during that time. Like we did with Kalil.

1. I dont think we grab James Lynch after grabbing YGM

2. Think itll be a CB

3. Will not suprise me to be a WR.  We have interest in drafting a WR.  Smoke coming out about our interest in Lamb.  A few beat writer going into last night said we may go WR rd 3.

    • 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
