I'm not sure why Lawson is falling a little at this point (probably the rise of a few other players like Conklin, Rankins, Jackson III, and Lynch), but more and more mocks are having him fall to us.  I love it!  He's still my fondest hope for tomorrow night...

I think he has a shoulder concern, and is a bit stiff for an OLB and not quite big enough for a 43 DE.  Not a great fit for a lot of teams.

Lawson said in an interview that half his sacks were with him standing up. So I think he'll be fine at OLB

The trades for QBs should/could push him down. Those 2 trade ups really opened up a bunch of possibilities for the draft.

Shoulder reportedly checked out well at the re-check, and his Combine athleticism should have eased concerns about the stiffness (he was even called fantastic in coverage drills).  He'd be a steal and could fit at either of our OLB positions.

Didn't see that about the shoulder.  I thought he would be a good fit OLB for the Pagano hybrid D, but other teams may not like him as a high pick. 

 

I'm good with it at #18, although we need to find an upgrade to C before the start of the season.  Like a day 1 starter, not a luke warm mid season replacement for KH, JH.

The only team to bring up the shoulder after the Combine was the Colts per Lawson on NFLN

      Colts have the 15th pick in the draft. (MERGE)

      By BCMak24 · Posted

      Just I figured would happen they went defense in the 1st round which was fine.....like I said drafting a wr that early who would be fighting for the #3 spot, you can get that type wr in the later rounds

      What happened was when the Jets were on the clock at 11 after the Vikings picked, the Bengals, Rams, and Colts all tried to trade up with them before they picked. I'm guessing the same was true with the Broncos, but they didn't want to trade down because 5 QBs were taken already and took Nix (heard Peyton say he had trade down offers but picked at 12). After that, the Raiders took Bowers.   I'm 99.9% sure that Bowers was the Colts first choice and they got their backup choice in Latu who was also their top defensive player. Balard also admitted in his 1st round press conference that he tried to trade up and it was a no go.

      The flip side is - you won’t see returns on investment in a very high first rounder for at least 2 years and if Cousins keeps playing well for 4 years, this move of the Falcons might end up being talked about as the least use of resources in a Top 10 player.   Plus, if Penix flops, after getting a chance after 2 years, that GM and HC combo will be gone, for a LONNNNGGG time and will never be GM and HC again. LOVE the player, not the pick. Older QBs that have had an injury history don’t go at No.8. They could have gotten back into Round 1, I’m confident Penix would have still been there at the 20s. Rodgers and Love were, for the Packers when they pulled the trigger, IN THE 20s.   Personally, after the first 2 QBs, every QB was over drafted, IMO.   Raheem Morris was hedging his bets on them not picking in Top 10 again, so that was their justification for picking Penix high. If you aren’t picking in Top 10 again, won’t your future 1st be worth less if you moved back into Round 1 in the 20s by the same logic?   Again, LOVE the player but HATE the pick position. They also put Penix in a difficult situation where he might end up asking them to trade him like Jordan Love did after riding the pine for 3 years. Is that what they want?

      Saw a post from Ian Rapport who stated both the Rams and Colts were making several trade-up calls in the first round. Once Bowers was selected the calls stopped.
