Who is your way too early mid-round draft crush?

I'm biased because I went to William & Mary, but I think Charles Grant will be a steal in the mid rounds (3rd - 4th). Dude is insanely athletic for an offensive lineman and I think he would be a great swing offensive lineman that could be plugged in to any OL spot. If he was taller / heavier and played against FBS competition, I think he goes in the top 50

I think a team with a zone heavy scheme like the eagles will probably take him, but hoping we do.

No idea where they'll go, but Charles Grant and Gunnar Helm both tick boxes for me.

Helm paired with Sanders would make me feel much happier about our tight end situation.

Grant coming in and given time to develop (and replace BC if he doesn't return) would offer the depth needed on O-line.

Malachi Moore seems a good prospect at safety, but I don't know a huge amount about him.

At WR, I like both Ricky White III and Nick Nash. Ricky reminds me a little of Diontae. Has some shiftiness and suddenness. Nick Nash is a former QB turned WR. Very good at contested catches. reminds me a little of Tee Higgins.

At DT, I like Patrick Jenkins. Maybe a late late or UDFA guy that plays 3-4 End.

I’m praying we use those picks on the less valuable defensive roles that fit a fast, two-high, odd-front scheme. We still haven’t really committed to building what Evero wants, and we need to fill in the gaps.
 

Coverage linebackers and safeties who can tackle: 

Jay Higgins - LB - Iowa

Jay Bassa - LB - Oregon

Malachi Moore - S - Bama

Kevin Winston Jr. - S - Penn State

 

True nose tackles:

Jamaree Caldwell - NT - Oregon

Jordan Phillips - NT - Maryland

Jamaree Caldwell

 

O2 as more of a Luvu comp and Caldwell as the nose tackle we have yet to sign for the past 7ish years

Caldwell is one of mine--I love the depth at IDL positions this year.  In my mocks, I tend to draft 3 because I can't believe someone we could use is sitting there in round 5, for example.

I also like Jordan Phillips from Maryland. 

I liked TCU WR Jack Bech before the Sr Bowl--love him now.

Skattelbo, RB Ariz St.  Dawg eating Dawg

Here is my 7th round / UDFA sleeper:  Jackson Hawes, TE Ga Tech.  Watched him during Sr Bowl practice and he caught my eye a time or two.  Can pass block, lead block, pull, and catch the ball.  With no Tremble or the future Hall of Famer Ian Thomas on the roster, we need a player who is versatile and willing to block.

      NFL top 10 Defenses

      By Basbear · Posted

      I believe Lloyd will elevate not just the whole unit, but also whoever his running mate is. Wallace is still very young, I think he's only 23 with two years of exp now. Cherelus can handle starting, he's just fighting with staying healthy. Kuwatch I think is going to be a contender after a couple week of understanding the system.  I mean Lee will be against..... what nearly 10 NFL-level WRs, he's going to get work and its up to him if he can hang.  I think its fair to expect 12th +/- 3 or 4 spots.  You know this, it boils down to how healthy everyone stays.....cause if dbrown, horn, Lloyd, Michael Jackson, or tervon miss extended time.....no way 10th can be reached. IF all the names above remain haethly, I do think 10th should be the goal. They are a young unit and added talent to a 16th ranked unit. Its time to march forward!!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce.

      Lee Hunter, Other End of The Call

      By Basbear · Posted

      Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.
