1.Jason Verrett CB

2.Davante Adams WR

3.Cyrus Kouandjio OT

4.Bruce Ellington WR

5.Aaron Lynch DE(he has hurst going a couple picks after which I would prefer)

This would be an amazing draft, never thought about a CB in the first. Ron and Dave have talked about the secondary being a strong position in the draft and how it needs to be addressed so it makes sense

Cyrus' knee is a major concern. We need someone who can come in and start from day one and last the entire season. We don't have the luxury of hoping a player can hold up, regardless of his "potential."

We need a weight-room junkie, bulldog road grater that is balanced and crafty. Mewhort is the one OL that has that type of grit and maturity to step right in and do his job without any questions asked.

They are gonna bring in an interior line judge and I want to stay away from the guys who like to reach because they are gonna get killed for holding. Guys with lower centers of gravity built wide-bodies are going to get better leverage without having to reach or bend too much, plus they are more durable.

I like Ellington's speed and measurables, but don't think he is the big possession receiver we need nor is he a #1 who can draw enough attention away from Smitty so that he can move to the slot, where he can be the most productive.

I'm still campaigning for Kelvin Benjamin because he has all the physical tools to demand a double team and open up the middle of the field for Smitty and Olsen. If The FO feels that McNutt is ready to step into that role as our possession receiver, maybe Id pass on Benjamin and just go BPA if that guy is a DB because I don't see anything but WR or DB at #28 without reaching.

Ginn was a burner but never demanded more than a free safety because of his limited route tree. Ginn did more damage in motion off screens and trick plays than he did anywhere else as he was too easy to jam at the line.

Lafell ran good routes, was an adequate blocker but couldn't hang on to the ball or climb the ladder, so he was easily covered by the nickel back. We really had no slot receiver because Smitty and Ginn were both needed to spread the field, that's why Olsen lead the team in receptions.

If we can get two physical outside receivers that would really open things up for the slot, in-line and for the running game. Add a twin TE on a few plays and things would really get interesting for opposing defenses.

Regardless, I think Benjamin would add the most bang for the buck and is NFL ready, from a National Championship Heisman winning offense. Big-stage, big-playmaker and a big body that can rise-up in the red zone.

Not sure about the Cyrus pick

 

If his knees are good, then he is worthy of number 1 pick, if they are not good, then I would not spend any pick on him.

 

Verrett is another very small CB in a division of WR trees.  Maybe a bit better then Munnerlyn of course, but not sure I would go this route for a zone defense.

 

Thinking our secondary will get better with maturity.  One tall CB and another vet FA should work nicely especially if we keep Hardy

Verrett fits our zone.

    • This is from 5 months ago. It was one or the other. Trade for one or draft one. We apparently called the Jets about Wilson. We also talked to the Seahawks about Metcalf. Drafting our own guy was the best course of action given the required investment. Regardless now is the time for Bryce Young to produce. We are fourth amongst all teams in cap spending on the OL. Back to back first round picks at WR and multiple young TE draft picks now. Very solid and respectable backfield. New pieces across the defense. The time is now.
    • That was just the worst time to have their worst game of the season. One key deal was the broncos guess the Panthers would NOT change any plays or flow to the game. Another key point overlook that bronco defense was truly one of the best in the NFL history. It was the best defense the Panthers faced that year, by far. They were not ready for it, but broncos were ready for the Panthers. Mix in that bad luck, poor refs showcase, and this is the golden boys last game........ Panthers needed to win by 20 and the broncos defense was not going to allow that.  Panthers were the faviotes and I believe they also thought that it was going to easier than them destorying NFC playoff teams as they marched to the SB. I've heard darin Gantt say the play calls were to give remmers help, but for some reason the team never did it. During the year they never had that problem, so maybe never practiced giving help via TE/RB, or WR chip. Cam was superman that year, no need for any adjustments...... Until you meet a legendary defense with studs at all levels, Think about it, Peyton was throwing wingless dunks for the whole season, the defense had to carry his corpse to the SB. That's how good they were, no many defense are able to get to the playoffs and win a SB without decent QB play. If you recall the beginning of that denfese took Tim Teblows and his non-throwing arse to the playoffs couple years before. That's insane the level of defense needed to overcome.   
    • Who cares if he paid for such small benefits out of his own pocket? The NCAA is a joke. They need to be offering such anyway, especially for Uber rides (which actually seems like a good idea).
