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


 Share

Recommended Posts

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.

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
