Christensen vs The Draft Prospects

from what I saw, he is average--and the way they moved him around, understandable.  Great athlete and a great coach--

I think Bozeman  will be the LG and Elf will play C.  Love for Elf to be depth. 

If we go OT at 6 then Elf becomes depth probably.  I think they try to slide BC at LG which I'm not entirely sold on.  He seems like more of a tackle than a guard to me.

Idunno how much stock anyone is to put is PFF. But FWIW, 

Cross: 86.7

Ickey: 91.6

Neal: 85.8

Lastly,

Christensen broke the PFF record for overall grade by a tackle at 96.0

Keep in mind Greg Little was 75.8 and All-SEC. 

As far as me, even if Brady is in our plans at LT, after the years we've had to endure previously, I'd make sure LT was no longer a problem for this franchise going forward. LT at 6.

Passing on a LT because you have Christensen would be like passing on a QB because you have Daniel Jones.

Which might be what the Giants are doing.  I get what you are saying though.  However BC has only his rookie year's couple games to go off of.  Daniel Jones has a much larger body of work...

They both seem like back ups or low tier starters to me.  Either could improve to become average starters or better though.

BC doesn't compare well to most of the guys we could take at 6, he looks like a backup honestly. He would have to take a big time jump in playing strength for that to change in my mind. I'm not even sure he could beat out Elf at LG and that is a low low bar. It's a stupid and completely self inflicted position. 

Take the 10 year LT prospect and don't look back. If you end up with 2 LTs then trade the worse one for more than you drafted him for (it would be BC baring a miracle or roids).

This is another failure of Rhule to not foresee that BC needed to be evaluated. If a top LT falls to us we have to take him. BC might be a good player. He should have been starting mid season. But he didn’t because he was mismanaged by coaching. That’s not his fault. But tough poo for Matt Rhule. We have a problem that needs fixing. If we waste time giving him a starting leash and he’s just average then we lose yet again. We have to get a cornerstone LT.

    • Outside of cerrato, I do like our draft overall. Hard to get can't miss draft picks when you pick late in the draft

    • Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
