Thought I'd throw up our 2019 draft.  3 yrs ago,

Certainly not an A draft.  Probably a C 

 

  • Round 1, Pick 16: EDGE Brian Burns (Florida State)
  • Round 2, Pick 37: OT Greg Little (Ole Miss)
  • Round 3, Pick 100: QB Will Grier (West Virginia)
  • Round 4, Pick 115: EDGE Christian Miller (Alabama)
  • Round 5, Pick 154: RB Jordan Scarlett (Florida)

Dude that is an F-

Huh? We could have 4 legit starters? Icky, Smith, Henderson, Corral. If you want to put the make or break on Corral then fine…but if he’s even serviceable in year 1 then this team is competing based on defense and running game alone. The OL has a chance to dominate. I would rather be in our situation than the Giants…and the Giants graded as an “A.”

Not sure why you are comparing the Giants draft but their first round is sheer brillance.  Perhaps the best best rusher and perhaps the best tackle in the draft. 

 

As for ours we have one starter from the draft.  "Could start" doesnt matter as we sit today.   Our draft is a solid C as we stand the sunday after the draft.  And I am fine with that.  I love the icky pick and I love the corral pick (as far as value goes).  Everyone else looks either like a special teams player or not making the final roster.

Our Best Draft Ever,,  probably 2001 .. real pro bowlers 

#11 Dan Morgan ,

#44 Kris Jenkins,

#72 Steve Smith,

Yea no doubt, but I meant at this point, before knowing what they turn out to be, this one is up there. We didn’t know Smitty would turn into one of the goats and Jenkins would be great.  We finally got a real stud at LT and a very promising QB. Those two alone make this one of our best without using hindsight to judge.

Lol. This is one of the best drafts we’ve had, at this point. Whether or not they all bust or boom is another story. Other places have given us all As and Bs so far

I agree. I have no problems with the guys the selected. On paper at this time even with less picks I understand why they selected the guys they did and this is my favorite draft class the last few years.

If your team is starting multiple rookies (after the first round) at positions other than ST then your team is gonna suck. 
 

We got a starting LT, possible starting outside linebacker…some good special teamsters and Corral. 
 

If the Giants are starting more than Thibodeaux and Neal at positions of significant reps….they’re not gonna be good? Maybe they start the OG they drafted. But probably not. The LBs and corner they drafted are special team. They got quantity. I’m not sure their quality is that much better.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Valid, and throw in that what Wilson and Smith did is not out of the ordinary for a WCO

      The season is over, and we're going to get clowned on by Mayfield and Darnold before it's over.

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Darnold was pretty bad until last year.  He implodes mentally, its just what he does.  To this day I dont have a problem with letting him walk.   Baker is a bit different.  He was an ass in Cleveland and they couldnt deal with his poo, but he at least had talent and went to the playoffs.  So you know he could play at least.  There were different stories coming out from the time he got here, competing with Sam and then the practice team release fiasco.  Both good and bad.  Some say he was a good teammate others say he bitched behind the scenes.   From what it appears his wife has worked with him and he calmed down and his play has reflected that.  Tampa loves him.  So if we were going to keep one it probably should have been him but man he was really bad for us.  But to his defense he didnt get the first team reps until late into camp.     In obvious hindsight we should have signed Baker cheap, drafted a dude and let the cards play out, but you know the rest of the story and now we are going to have to watch bryce for 2 more years

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Again his one year calling plays happened to be Baker's lowest YPA not counting his split year hear.  That tells me he was less aggressive with a QB who likes to be aggressive.  We have that and almost 2 full years of Bryce Ball here in Carolina.  He will take some deeps shots as most offenses have to in order to keep the defense honest.  Quick passes and hopeful YAC.  I'll give you one guess to which year Rachaad White had the most receptions as TB's RB?  Remember the first thing he wanted to do here is focus on how quickly he wanted to get the ball out.  That's part of his recipe to help QBs and help his OL.  Run the ball, quick passes to hopefully players in space, sprinkle in a little PA.   So yeah you can look at some coaches he learned under and speculate, but I am telling you what he literally is doing and has done as a play caller.  Offenses that were and are 100% his baby.
