Your top 5 OLs and 5 WRs we could realistically land early

Recommended Posts

I thought this would be a fun add for the day..mini positional big-boards:

 

OT (I think Kouandijo will be a handful of picks in the past)

 

1. Xavier Su'a-Filo

2. Morgan Moses

3. Joel Bitioni 

4. Cameron Fleming

5. Billy Turner

 

 

WR (Not counting Cooks & OBJ, b/c I think they're gone as well) (also note: this is really hard to rank imo)

 

1. Marquise Lee

2. Davante Adams

3. Cody Latimer

4. Jordan Matthews

5. Jarvis Landry

 

 

..So..you can now make yours and think about what looks better to take in R1 iyo

 

-This may put who we could get in perspective depending on your rankings and whatnot.  (and yeah, watch us not even take one of these positions haha)

I still think Allen Robinson is in play to. Also we could go DB in the first.

I agree, this is just a mini positional big board. Fuller is my top DB for us.

Robinson is good too but prob 6 or 7 on my WR wish list though

Lee would be a disaster.  He couldn't even stay healthy in college.  He is too small and his frame won't take the pounding in the NFL when he gets hit by guys who try and lay you out.  He won't make it through his rookie year without injuries.  If there is a guy like Benjamin or Adams there is would be plain folish to go with Lee who really fell off his senior year due to injuries.  Plus he isn't really suited for a vertical passing system.

Not gonna lie, getting Adams or Latimer is what I want. If we can somehow land one of those two I'm a very happy camper.

I'd be very happy with either of them at #60. Neither of them at #28.

Doubtful either of them are available at 60. I think both of them are first round talents and that would be even more apparent in a draft class that isn't so stacked at the position. In a normal year without a couple elite WR prospects and a couple other very good ones, Latimer and Adams would probably be top 25 picks.

I'd honestly be more comfortable with Latimer than Adams.  Adams worries me.  He has very average measurables and played in a spread system that likely inflated his production while being thrown to by a probable 1st round draft pick QB while facing less than elite competition.

 

At least Latimer produced in a major conference without the benefit of an elite QB.  When you look at his production and measurables and then look at the competition he faced and the talent surrounding him, I like Latimer quite a bit.  Just not quite sure I like him as high as #28.

I just really think those 2 are gonna make a splash in the league.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
