Zod's OFFICIAL first overall pick selection is....


Zod

Patrick Peterson

Peterson is the closest thing to a sure thing future pro bowler in this draft. He would step in day one as a starter and improve this team a great deal on both defense and special teams as a returner. Patrick Peterson on Roddy White twice a year? Yes please.

Our defense is about 3 or 4 players away from being a Rivera-type, #1 in NFL defense. Make it great now with lower risk players. Peterson at CB means they will throw more to Gamble, the guy they avoided last year. Then draft a DT at 65. Nevis, Austin, Wilkerson--I think one drops to us. Add a free agent DT. Set to go. 2 draft picks. Do not underestimate the impact of a stellar defense on offensive playcalling and risk taking.

With the other draft picks, build some depth at OL, DE, and possibly WR.

The offense needs to mature. They are young. A veteran leader is needed here for a while. Be patient and we will find a franchise QB soon. Heck, you would have to be patient with Cam anyway.

I love PP but he doesn't do anything to fix our QB problems.

That is based on the assumption that the QB problems have to be addressed in the draft, in the first round. I understand your frustration. And maybe they like Cam or Blaine, but the D needs some studs too. There are great WRs and QBs in our conference who must be stopped. Ideally, trade down.

My Board after trading down about 4-8 spots and accumulating picks:

Peterson

Quinn

Dareus

Bowers

Fairley

Newton

Gabbert

Green

I would not trade lower than Tennessee at #8. At least one falls. That is the benefit of having multiple needs. Considering Von Miller is going top 6 probably, you would likely get your choice between two of these players. By dropping to #7 or #8, you would get a second rounder and probably a third rounder minimally for a player you might have chosen first overall anyway. More picks, lower salary Win Win.

    • The only thing I know is nfl red zone. 
    • We put a ton of high draft capital into young WRs over the past few years. We drafted a WR in top 2 rounds of the draft in 4 out of the past 5 years. At some point, we need to rely on the dudes we drafted vs relying on veteran role players. That's the only way we're going to evolve as a team and take the next step to going back to winning again.  Remember when Cam lost KB and everyone thought it was the end of the universe? And 2015 happened.  Maybe losing Theilen and Coker will open some opportunities for some other guys to step up. 
    • So apparently in the time between the end of the last football season, and now, a TON of streaming sites have been taken down. From what I remember most of these idiotic offiicial streaming services that offer NFL games don't ever offer ALL of the games. I remember subscribing to one service on youtube last season that cost hundreds of dollars and it would still constantly tell me games were either blacked out or unavailable, which is totally ridiculous. Is there any one service that I can watch ALL of the games on?? It gets on my everlasting nerves already that there's so many different streaming sites and they are all expensive as hell. I don't want to take out an entire additional car payment to subscribe to 4 different streaming services to watch all the games. Is there just ONE I can subscribe to? The most comprehensive thing I have access to now is Sirius XM. It's only 10 ish bucks a month and I can listen to the home or away broadcasts of any game. Only thing is I can't WATCH the games but this seriously comes in handy if I'm out doing something, driving, or can't stay still at the moment to watch the games. But usually I'm off on Sundays, so I mostly want to watch them.
