Updated Draft (Walterfootball) Mar. 7


Recommended Posts

I really like this draft. We get a steal in the 5th round in Jared Crick to play the JJ Watt role for us. We get an underrated NT in the 4th in Josh Chapman, a small school stud in Trumaine Johnson in the 3rd, and a very good WR in Reuben Randle in the 2nd to give Luck a talented weapon.

We could add to that draft by trading Freeney and/or Dallas Clark for draft picks to target guys like TE Coby Fleener, SS Harrison Smith, Vinny Curry.

Jared Crick will not make it out of the 3rd round. Him going in the 5th is way too unrealistic. Everything else seems pretty good, maybe Jayron Hosley falls to the 3rd round, and if he does take him over Johnson.

Rd 1 - obvious

Rd 2 - Chris Givens is better than Reuben Randle. He's faster and runs better routes. Marvin McNutt, Iowa runs better routes than Randle and has the same speed. I wouldn't take McNutt in the 2nd.

Rd 3 - Casey Hayward is better than Trumaine Johnson.

Rd 4 - Josh Chapman would be an OK pick, but can he play a 1-gap 3-4 Defense?

Rd 5 - There is no way that Crick will last til the 5th Rd. A much more feasible pick here would be David Molk, C, Michigan

1.Andrew Luck QB

2.Josh Robinson CB

3.Alameda Ta Amu NT

4.Sam Jones WR

Luck is a given but Robinson could slip into the first round. Ta Amu could go high second round and Jones might go 3rd. If Robinson is gone we should take the best NT available. Several NTs have first round grades but may drop to round 2.

    • Not really.   There's a theory that Ballard wants to draft an OL high because he said it's important to protect the QB, and Richardson was hurt last year. And the counter was that Richardson's injury/s probably aren't about the level of OL protection, and drafting an OL high wouldn't address that concern.
    • I'm thinking if we can trade to 8 or 9 and draft Odunze , we should do it if the price is reasonable. The value chart shows giving up P 15 and P 46 is the perfect number. Probably won't do it and I would think 2025 2nd for a 2024 4th added to the deal would make it work . That of coarse would depend on Atlanta or Chicago wanting to move to 15 . Obviously , as we all know , it takes 2 to make a trade.
    • I can too. And that will tell us everything we need to know about how the view him. It will tell us their feelings on the tight end room, and what direction they pick from there will tell us even more.    but if they take him at 15, we won’t know much about what might have happened, as they will be landing someone they had rated highly and fell to them. 
    • Glad that’s over…    if I wanted to argue about it, I would have responded far more in depth than pointing out how you were attempting to gaslight me. I did not. Meaning I was ending my part of whatever the argument was. You “putting a finality to it” and then listing bullet points tells me it was the argument you wanted all along, which makes sense why you brought Grigson up in the first place. Bait, hook, gaslight. Almost got me buddy. You are a funny guy, Doug 
    • Putting a finality on an argument you want to have.   There is a theory that Ballard won't draft a OL high because ARs injuries were not caused by a poor oline.  I felt it important to note that since Luck's major injuries were also not caused by his oline, Ballard could still want to improve it like he did in 2018 simply because AR is The Franchise. And its important to point that out because there has been a running (false) narrative for about 9 years that Luck's oline was the (main) reason for his injuries that kept him out of games.  The (false) narrative is based upon, IMO, a detest of Grigson, and not reality about the facts (or strong rumors) behind the kidney laceration and snowboarding shoulder. Therefore, mentioning Grigson and the (false) narrative was germain to the point about Ballard possibly drafting Oline high this draft to protect AR. Mentioning Grigson shouldn't trigger a CB vs RG discussion, unless people reading it are gaslighted by their own reading lens.
