thats one strong and fast mother fuger. Evero and the scouts must know something we dont.

People acting like guys like Simpson are first round picks when 32 teams have passed over him multiple times now.

Its one thing if a few things pass on you...But if every team does multiple times? Then that should tell you something.

This has been a pretty disappointing second day. Reached for both picks. No sure why we had to move up to get this guy. 

Mingo wasn't a reach. You will be in for a suprise. This one is a little bit of a head scratcher but its end of 3rd round. It's not that big of a deal.

Some of you are just bitchers, no matter what.

Multiple outlets had him as an end of 1st round grade. You don’t need to trade up for a 25 year old rookie, he’ll be too old to even warrant a second contract 

So we get a pro ready DE on a rookie contract for 4 years? Awesome!

this was confusing me when i was finding highlight videos. did this guy actually also play TE or did Oregon also have a TE named DJ Johnson?

Ha yeah it’s the same guy. He played both

Fans really think they have the inside scoop more than a team of scouts. Trust the front office. 

Lol, because we’ve been so good at drafting the past few years that we should never question them? I’d take Simpson or Washington over DJ, but oh well, he’s our guy. 

[WUnderhill]

Not super familiar with this guy, but seems to fill the role that I wanted Drew Sanders for. Hope he’s a monster for us!

[KillerKat]

I hate people that have no idea what they are talking about trash the guy before he has taken a snap. Also, hating on the Mingo pick. Like seriously? This place is miserable AF.

Definitely could have been gone before 93, been a bit of a run on these rushing OLBs. I like the pick based on what they said about him on nfln and his physical profile. We’ll see how he develops

He's 25 this year - not much development left I'm afraid.

[WelshPanther]

I will enjoy hind-sighting this pick in three years. It’s all a crap shoot at this point 

[Dilla]

 

I feel like if a 6th year Sr is gonna be drafted, he needed to put up good numbers at least. Johnson doesn't even have that. I'm just a fan obviously, but I can't make myself like this pick.

Fitterer must have gotten intel that someone else was planning on reaching, but on paper, this guy is a 5th round pick.

[Panthro]

Perhaps there was a massive drop off after him
