Sewell has to be our #1 prospect at this point . If the Bengals take Chase or Pitts we could have a decent shot at getting him . What do you think our chances are? 

 

And I'm starting to see a trend among mocks that if Sewell doesn't go to Cinci then the Lions take him right before our pick . If they really are that big of a threat to take him why wouldn't the Panthers trade up slightly to get him ? I personally would gladly trade one or two mid rounders along with 8 to get Detroit's 7 or Miami's 6 to get Sewell. It shouldn't cost that much because Detroit or Miami could likely still get the player they wanted because they only traded down one or two spots .

 

Don't want to put a percentage on it because too many teams may move up to get him.  

I've seen where Cincinnati has a good LT that they drafted in 2019.  According to the article he wasn't the problem on their O-line.  In fact he was the best player on their O-line.  I think they choose between Pitts or Chase.  Then he has to get past Miami and Detroit but the possibility is there.  I haven't been on the Dolphins or Lions board so I am not sure what their priority is.

If he makes it or dilemma is trade down or take Sewell.

Stirs is an optimist.

My numbers say there is a 59.2% chance he is gone.  

45.6% chance he goes to the bengals.  If he slips past the bengals, I give the lions a 25% chance of selecting him.

So there is a 41.2% chance he is there and I assume we would select him at 8.  The only caveat is if Denver is worried about NE giving us a bid for a QB that is too good to pass up and they offer us a 3rd or something to switch places.  Then I assume we pick him 9th.

If anyone would like to see my math, let me know.

Depends if the smoke screen the Panthers are deploying works. Sure seems like they’re publicly pumping their interest in QBs to make teams trade ahead of pick #8.

Agree, 1-3 are 99.9% QB's. Really good chance at least 1 more goes in front of us (trade or ATL). That leaves 3 non-QB picks ahead of us, and I think 1 of them is Pitts. Unfortunately, Sewell is probably the next best player. Maybe a 5th QB goes, maybe a defensive guy or a WR, hell, maybe Slater or Darrisaw is higher on Detroit's board... Anyhoo, I'm thinking there's about a 60% chance he's gone personally.

Edit, I think there's a 90% chance Slater is still available at 8, so I would not be a fan of trading up from 8.

5 qb's in 7 picks????  While I would love for that to happen its just not going to go down like that. 

 

I think SF goes with Mac and the draft really starts with ATL.  If they go QB (which I doubt) then the craziness will start.  I still think they go pitts and Lance and/or fields begin their descent down the draft board. 

This.  Atlanta is the key.  Estimated Draft chaos to begin at roughly 9PM EST. Thursday, April 29 2021.

My opinion:  Atlanta takes Sewell, Pitts, or Lance in a long shot prediction.  Yet I find it a bit odd that Julio is on the block.  Chase if Julio is traded?

My prediction trying to see through all the smokescreens and bs.

 

1. Jax- Tevor Lawrence

2. NYJ- Zach Wilson

3. SF- Justin Fields 

4. ATL- Kyle Pitts

5. CIN- Ja'Marr Chase

6. DEN- (trade) Trey Lance

7. NE- (trade) Mac Jones

8. CAR- Penei Sewell

9. MIAMI- Jaylen Waddle

10. DAL- Jaycee Horn

Possible, but we need 4 things to happen that are probably not the odds on favorite--not all of them, at least:  Atlanta takes Pitts over Sewell--possible.  Cincy takes Chase over Sewell--somewhat possible Then two trades, and I see those trades being possible.

Look at me, I pulled 60% chance he's gone outta my @$$, and you have an algorithm to back it up.

Question is who teams value as their bpa and needs.

I think it's a domino effect, SF wants Wilson gets Fields.

Atl wants Fields get Pitts because he's their bpa and the cost is too high for teams to trade up.

Cin wants either Sewell, Pitts or Chase and try to trade with Miami and when they call the bluff Cin takes Chase.

I think Miami really values a weapon over OT just because they took Austin Jackson last year, without Pitts or Chase they want to trade back to get the 2nd tier of either Waddle or Smith. Den can finally trade up without selling the farm and grab either Lance or Fields.

Detroit has a history of working with Belichick and without Lance or Fields on the board they'd rather get extra trade capital. NE think Carolina is Jones's floor and with the next set of QB's being Mond, Trask or Mills they trade up. I don't think the'll put all their eggs in the basket for Cam.

Carolina gets Sewell or Slater.

I personally think if either Jones or Fields are available at #8 Carolina will draft them, even though I would be annoyed, that's why Denver or NE will trade up. I could also see the Chargers jumping us at #7 if Sewell falls.

The Panthers aren’t drafting Mac Jones.

    • Sometimes you get very valuable information from fantasy football sites. I found an analysis that you may want to read from The Fantasy Footballers. Perhaps you'll gain an insight as to why we moved up and got him. As always, here are a few snippets: "As expected, he dominated in the 2023 season. He averaged an impressive 2.03 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play, which ranks in the 86th percentile among all junior seasons since 2013." "Naturally, after initially playing behind two NFL-caliber running backs, Brooks’ career numbers do not jump off the page. However, his 2023 campaign gave us a glimpse of just how massive his upside could be at the next level. In fact, Brooks is one of only TWO running backs in this class to exceed 2.00 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play within their first three seasons in college."  "If you watch Jonathon Brooks’ film, you will find multiple plays in which he created yardage with his quick feet and lateral agility. He is elusive in open spaces and has an impressive ability to stack multiple cuts to avoid contact. Combined with his impressive burst and acceleration, Brooks can be a matchup nightmare in the second and third levels of the defense." "While Brooks is not the most physical running back, he does have a knack for absorbing contact and bouncing off defenders. You see this time and time again in his film." "He showcased a willingness to initiate contact with the pass rusher, the strength to maintain blocks, and the quickness to adjust to the defender’s moves. In addition, per PFF, Brooks was a top-three running back in the 2024 class in pass-blocking grade last season. He was also one of only two running backs in the class to average a 0% pass block pressure rate, highlighting just how effective he was as a blocker." "In short, Brooks has tremendous upside as a prospect. Even with his ACL injury, I would still be comfortable drafting him in the early second round of rookie drafts. In fact, I would not be shocked if he finished his career as the most productive running back in this class. However, we just need to temper our expectations for his rookie year as he slowly ramps up to full health." Marvin Elequin provides more here (including video clips): https://www.thefantasyfootballers.com/dynasty/2024-rookie-profile-rb-jonathon-brooks-fantasy-football/   Basically, Brooks has the potential to be a beast, and was well worth the 46th pick (and most mocks had him going mid second round anyway). He's not JAG. Someone had to make the move and take him, and we were the ones to do it. He's elusive, has good speed and acceleration, exceptional contact balance, and is an outstanding blocker. Just like any nice RB transitioning to the league, he will need to get used to taking what the defense gives him, while also showing discriminating patience, but he has demonstrated some ability on that front in college. Brooks' only real knock is the ACL. But ACLs aren't career ending anymore, or even skill ending as evidenced by Dalvin Cook, Todd Gurley and others. We'll just need to temper our expectations during his rookie campaign while he gets back to form. Once he does, we'll finally have the talented three-down back that has eluded us since Stew retired.

    • 2.43 : Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon 2.52 : Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas 3.65 : Junior Colson, LB, Michigan 3.79 : Blake Corum, RB, Michigan 4.101 : Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas 😎 5.141 : Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, C, Georgia 5.142 : Austin Booker, Edge, Kansas 5.155 : Christian Jones, OT, Texas Note, I traded down from 33 (took the Arizona/Atlanta trade up to 35 - might have actually been able to net an even better deal but whatever, I'll go with this). Took the Rams trade but stayed put at 52 and at the top of the 3rd.
