Draft Day 2: Look Ahead/Targets

Ja'Tavion Sanders don't think twice about it.

 

We have enough bodies at WR. People seem to write off Johnson as if he's a 1yr deal. I fully expect him to be our #1 WR as do the Panthers he's a big part of our future moving forward. Thielen is obviously aging , but he's our slot guy for the next year or two. Then you have Mingo and Leggette. Those guys will get their reps. That's 4 WR's. It's still possible they bring back Chark as well.

 

Go get your TE. Give Bryce no excuses if he can't get it done our QB next year will be set up for success.

I think I expect edgerrin cooper but also wouldn’t be surprised at a tight end, which will make people freak out, but sinnot is one of those guys every fanbase thinks they’ve discovered as a round 3 gem and is thus potentially going to go a lot higher than expected. Both of those guys got top 30 visits. They’ve done absolutely nothing to bolster tight end all offseason despite aggression elsewhere. 

corner has obviously gotten a lot of smoke as well. 

That’s a very fair observation about TEs. This class had Bowers but I don’t think teams have Sanders as a clear TE2 that some sites have had him pegged as. I like when TEs were a critical part of their offense in school and not just athletic upside, Sinnott was the leading receiver for that squad. Albeit an iffy one on offense but still- good take.

Sorry, Bear Hands--I have been working on a similar thread for the past hour--a bit different in that it discusses the teams prior to pick 39 and predicts how each might go. 

I think the pick will be Saintrisil CB or Cooper LB.

Cool deal--feel free to add wherever.  More discussion the better.

    • Nobody is saying we don't need it, just that we have bigger needs elsewhere, and that type of WR is actually something that is often found in the mid rounds, you just have to scout and evaluate properly. Here's another way of looking at why WR in the 1st shouldn't even be considered an option. Looking only at players currently on the team, what position group would you feel strongest about 4 years from now? I'm not sure there is a better answer there than WR, as you have to think T-Mac is our best player on the team in 4 years, with Coker not far behind. Our OL is too old to be considered, my opinions on Bryce is well known, Hubbard will be done by then and the rest of the RB is an unknown, Off-ball LB is maybe our biggest need, we only have 1 legit safety, it's certainly not TE, and our 2nd best CB right now will be 33 by then.   Brown should still be a beast as he'll only be 31, but nobody else on the DL projects to be that good in 4 years.  Edge rusher with Phillips, Scourton, and Princely is probably the only other possible answer than WR. So yes, that fast/shifty type of WR is 100% a need of ours, but we have so many other bigger needs both in the immediate and future, that to me, taking a WR in the 1st for the 3rd year in a row and having hit on another WR in the same time frame, just makes zero sense both currently and looking into the future.
    • Laughing at Slayton (Mooney or Calvin Austin III), but telling me that Coker is the next best thing since sliced bread...You laughing at Theo Johnson in reference to our guys too? LOL No one in their right mind thinks Nabers is anything but a stud (definitely top 10 if not 5 potential). You do realize that Thomas was in a new system with a furst-time coach last year (with a questionable QB to boot)? And yet still, it's possible that he eclipses even T-mac (not saying that he will). They didn't even mention Travis Hunter. In any event, we're not in the top half. Draft another legit receiver, and we will be. 
    • Absolutely, very fair assessment of the team.
