Draft perspective

Recommended Posts

Throughout this painfully drawn out offseason of who we should pick number 1 overall, this forum (my home away from home) has been ridiculously divided into many different opposing factions. Draft Cam! *rabble rabble* Draft Fairley! *rabble rabble* we can't draft a CB #1!! *rabble rabble*

There's been lots of debate, lots of diatribe, and tons of "expert" amateur speculation followed by heated exchanges.

For all of you who are so sure of what we WILL and WILL NOT do, I ask you this: in 2007, who here was on the Beason bandwagon in April 2007? The TD bandwagon in 2005? (where's J-Vic when you need him! Haha) those two choices where absolutely out of nowhere, and I remember I even had to look up Jon Beason on the interwebz after that pick was announced.

My point is, I love the huddle. I love the Huddlers, I really do spend too much time on this site. It's absolutely unhealthy how much time I spend on this site. I know you all have that to live with too. But I digress, my point is that we should still speculate over what's going to happen, but no one on here needs to be a poo head know it all, unless you predicted TD and Beason, then please by all means shove your "knowledge" down our throats, but for the rest of us who thought Derrick Johnson was going to be sporting Carolina Blue, don't be so quick to shoot everyone's opinion down.

Also, if you did predict those two picks or if you know the whereabouts of J-Vic, please let yourself be known. That is all. May Watson watch over you and destroy your enemies.

    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
    • Moton is a class act.  
    • Sure, that is possible. That’s what, an extra 55 yards a game on average and 7 more TDs? What if he’s just 15th?  I imagine they would extend him in that situation due to the belief that he’ll keep trending up. maybe a 3 year contract to prove he can be top 10? Sounds like a Tepper plan.
