DE Jerry Hughes

What about George Selvie? He could be drafted in the third or fourth round. Didn't have a great senior year but sometimes took over games in his sophomore and junior year. Seems like a higher risk/reward to me. What say you?

id draft demaryius thomas only if he showed me that he can run routes. i agree with Lout that our first 3 picks will be a WR, LB, and a QB...although instead of QB it should be DT. I say Terrence Cody if he's available at #47. if not, Cam Thomas in the 2nd, Mardy Gilyard in the 3rd, there's a chance thomas can slip to the 3rd. before everyone started all this hpe about him he was a 3rd rd prospect. then A.J. Edds in the 4th

Loved Selvie his freshman year, and kind of got worse as he got older.. that has cause for concern. He is projected 4th round grade. I think with Brayton re-signed it pushes DE down the list.

I'm high on Demaryius Thomas because he looks like he'd be hell to block. He also has great hands, and he can win a jump ball, even with contact he comes down with it. At the college level it's common to have terrible breakdowns in the secondary, so it's hard to judge how well a WR will do at the next level. The DBs are bigger, faster, and they don't make many mistakes.

    • Per Adam Schefter: https://x.com/AdamSchefter/status/1920523706624823739 Expected, but just want to rub it in here.
    • I try to keep up and project the roster with color-coded charts.  You can see priorities and gauge who has the best chance of making the roster--you can see the priorities as well.  Here, Yellow is a 2025 draft pick, green is an undrafted free agent, and orange is a free agent. The depth chart will obviously change and I am not sure about roles (positions in all cases), so that is not the real issue at this time, but yellows and oranges show how the team focused on which aspects of the defense:     In the front 5, there were 3 draft picks, 3 free agents (not including players we re-signed), and two undrafted players signed. In the back 6, there was 1 draft pick and 2 free agents (LB, S), and four undrafted free agents. The undrafted free agents are always long shots, but by identifying them, you can tell which longshots might make the roster.
    • The rise of analytics in sports goes back to the use of sabermetrics in baseball.  The ironic thing is that the whole point of Bill James work was to objectively figure out each players contribution to to a team's wins throughout the season.  This is possible in baseball because each at bat is essentially a 1v1 with an objective outcome.  Applying statistical averages also works a lot better with hundreds of plate appearances over 162 games a year. PFF grades plays subjectively, and then puts them into buckets.  They then create different statistics based on those buckets.  That's all well and good and I'm not saying it's useless.  But calling it analytics like it's some kind of objective science is a far cry from what is actually going on.
