Pick
8
 

 

 

 

Mississippi · DT · Junior

Speaking of Quinnen Williams ... Nolen earned that comp this season from Ole Miss defensive coordinator Pete Golding, who coached the three-time Pro Bowler at Alabama. Nolen's explosiveness off the ball and ability to chase down plays make him a potential top-10 selection like Williams, and pairing him with Derrick Brown means trouble for opposing offensive lines.

We don’t need a 3-tech at DT. D. Brown is our penetrator. His second season we tried to make him eat blocks and it just wasted his talent. On DL we need guys that can eat blocks and shed. Nolan is a classic penetrating 3-tech which will make him redundant and wasted pick in the first round.

Actually like it.

Following the Philly model

Nolen might be too early but if he hits and Burch hits in the 3rd that would change the DL overnight. Still some risk at 8.

I don’t like the C pick. Awful reach at 57. This C class isn’t close to last year. Last year was the year to draft the C. If you use one or more of the day 3 picks on OL, that’s fine. Add in another edge or CB in round 2, I’d like the draft.

I wouldn’t completely say that.

It’s not good as last year.

But Wilson, had just as good a season this year as any Center coming out of last years draft.  And athletically,  will be similar if not more athletic than the Duke kid that went rd 1 last year.

Thing going against him.  He only has 1 year experience.  First year playing and starting at Georgia.  And he isn’t versatile, most scouts believe he only a Center at the next level, unsure he can play Guard at the next level.  Thats part of the reason the West Virginia kid dropped last year.  And why the Duke kid surged Duke to him being able to play multiple positions.

Wilson, I’d take no questions rd 3, towards the end of the 2nd.  I wouldn’t be mad.  Probably rather get someone else and hope he falls to rd 3. 
 

People said the same thing about the Eagles when they took Jurgens rd 2 after taking Dickerson rd 2 the year before

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
