That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

Freeling - A highly rated OT that gives us several options going forward, especially with Icky and Moton.   Not sexy but great pick, IMO

Hunter - A violent man.  You put him with DB and Scourton and our recent FA.  Our front seven looks pretty damn good.

Brazzell - A big WR with ungodly speed.  Gives DC and Young options at WR and a deep WR Room

Lee - CB that can help our back end.  We'll see where he end up.  

Hecht - 2nd rated Center in the draft and we got him in round 5.  Can't argue with the pick.  Our OL depth was very thin.  He'll help

Wheatly - fills a need at Safety.  How can you be upset.

Overall, Dan Morgan picked Dan Morgan type of players.  I know there are going to be several arm chair GMs that will nitpick this draft but IMO it is another solid draft class.

Good, I went through the ESPN tracker 2x before I posted.  I didn't see the 7th round pick.  That's cool.  What is your flavor. 

I have none at this point. Maybe qb.

Qb in 7th if for no other reason to try and throw a little bit more of a scare into Bryce. 

I agree with your overall assessment, but don't agree that taking a tackle in the first isn't a sexy pick. A huge athletic tackle with high upside is pretty exciting.

I loved it too.  So many wanted a LB or Safety.  I said months ago that I thought our biggest need was OT.  I would have loved to see one of the top players fall to us. In a sense, it did with Freeling because most mocks had him gone before 19. 

Nothing would make me happier than to see us have a LT that we can rely on.  I remember when we had J. Gross and no one ever mentioned OT when the draft came up.  It would be nice to have a LT we could count on for 10 years or so.

Don't think he was scared by signing Kenny Pickett and will Grier?

      The reason Freddie didn't dress

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      Yep, you're right. I forgot about that. Fly was banged up, but RBA put him on the ice for a reason, too. Could have put KK out there, but there was a purpose for Deslauriers on the ice.

      So David Moore is making the 53?!?!

      I wasn’t speaking of Metchie in the context that I referenced Renfro  I couldn’t, he hasn’t played a snap for us    My Metchie esteem level is just not real high. As an NFL WR.  I am no expert on WRs it’s just what I think based on how it has gone for him as a pro  If he can’t catch on here with his old buddy then who is left? I am not wishing him any misfortune and hope he does well because that means we stole some talent; basically for free to boot.

      Thornton and Lee III

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      No one said it would be a permanent thing.  The best thing about having more than two good corners is that you can play them in different position which changes how a QB sees the play unfolding.  You put question marks on a QB you had a second or so of decision making and gives our improved (hopefully) DL a chance to sack him.  If Thornton and Lee turn out to be studs you have 4 good CBs that can be used all over the defense.  That's a good thing.  If you are looking at it just based on salary it is kind of weak take.
