CFB: Following 2019 Draft Prospects

Remember that PFF ratings should be taken with a grain of salt. They don’t actually evaluate the player. They evaluate the snaps and just compile data. My argument is that you have two guys getting the same hype that 2 players at the exact same position got last year. Either last years guys were overhyped or this next group is. Because you could even take it back to 2017 and talk about Allen, Robinson, and Reed.

Remember that Bama brings in absolute dogs every year to their program. It's not really that far fetched that they're producing another set of high draft picks from their interior d-line. And you also just proved my point by bringing up Allen, Robinson, and Reed.

Dogs? Not necessarily. They get a ridiculous amount of 5 star recruits every year for sure. Najee Harris and Dylan Moses were both 5 star recruits at one point, and the best at their position. They both play at Alabama.

 

Im not saying none of Alabama’s defensive players are good but something I read in an article not too long ago said name an Alabama player whose had as much or more success in the NFL as he did in college? Now restrict that to just defensive players. Point being 5 star recruits + proven system= top rated prospects at the same positions year after year. I’m just trying to get a range on this next set of guys. Payne and Hand were supposedly better than Allen, Robinson, and Reed. The question is where do Williams and Davis fall in the spectrum. How talented are they really?

Dogs meaning really good players, not underdogs.

I'd say their talent is right on par with the last two groups of Bama interior lineman. I like Williams better than Davis but expect both of them to be very serviceable pro players.

    • Wilson IMO is too much like Downs. Not sure we would want to pick another predominantly slot player.    IMO the players that make the most sense at WR are - AD Mitchell, Ladd(he again plays a bit of slot, but he's also a bit more versatile, he's played about 75% of his snaps in other alignments), Troy Franklin - he can be a Z for us... Jermaine Burton?!? if he's cleared character-wise?? I like Malik Washington but he's predominantly slot too so not sure he's a fit here.    BTW... this guy is projected as a day 3 pick... but because of the general lack of that type of player after Troy Franklin(fast Z) I can see him being pushed up... maybe get drafted mid-late R3 - he's like budget version of Xavier Worthy- Anthony Gould.    Maybe DeVontez Walker? Although he had such a bad Senior Bowl, I'd be surprised if Ballard goes for him. 
    • While having 6 QBs go in the first 12 picks pushed some talent towards us... it probably also contributed to it being extremely hard for Ballard to trade up. It's just way too hard to make teams move away from QBs or to outbid teams who are bidding for their QB. I think 5 was probably our best chance for trade up... Arizona reportedly completely shut down any offers - they just wanted MHJ and they took him. 5 was probably our best chance, but it probably was way too steep of a price. Giants probably didn't want to move from Nabers, division rival Titans not great trade partner, Atlanta... wanted a freaking QB for some reason?!?!? Then Bears got their dream player drop to them and IMO that was probably the last chance we had. 
    • I wouldn't mind if we traded up early if we picked one of these three players: 1. Texas A&M LB Edgerrin Cooper 2. Iowa CB Cooper DeJean 3. Texas WR Adonai Mitchell
    • Round 2/3 Wishlist 1. Texas A&M LB Edgerrin Cooper 2. Iowa CB Cooper DeJean 3. Texas WR Adonai Mitchell 4. Rutgers CB Max Melton 5. Michigan LB Junior Colson 6. Western Kentucky WR Malachi Corley 7. Minnesota S Tyler Nubin 8. Iowa State CB T.J. Tampa 9.Oregon WR Troy Franklin
    • Finally CB drafted a Edge with production, not only high RAS. But then it's a guy with big injury concerns. Anyway....any player can get a serious injury on any given play. So, welcome to Indy! Give everything you have on the field and stay healthy!   Gotta find a DB and WR in round 2. Think DeJean is still on the board?! Round 2 is probably where his value is.
