I'm reading that he's got a high ceiling....a project...but high ceiling

Good 2nd day pick

[2006Coltsbestever]

Vikings took Big Irv, nice pick for TE. Cousins needed that.

[Surge89]

Anyone know anything on Ben?

Thought I read he was Shane Ray 2.0.  Fast but not a lot of bend.  Just what I read.

Here is his NFL SCOUT REPORT >>>>>>>https://www.nfl.com/prospects/ben-banogu?id=32194241-4e73-7249-aebe-eec538edf79b

[Shive]

Come on man....... I wasn't a huge fan of Banogu and especially not that high. I trust Ballard, but I definitely don't understand the pick.

[oldunclemark]

I'd have liked AJ Brown

[21isSuperman]

Metcalf continues to fall

That's it for me tonight, folks. Enjoy the rest of the night!

[oldunclemark]

Is Riley Ridley of Georgia still on the board?

I thought he was good

 

[Bluefire4]

NOT TENNESSEE!!! AH!

[runthepost]

Titans really doing this to us 

[Bluefire4]

I don't know about the fit with Mariota at quarterback. I think if the Patriots took AJ Brown at 32 he would have had 100 catches as a rookie.

[RNGDShobby]

meh. Titans dont have a QB anyway...

Bengals with a rather odd pick.

[PrincetonTiger]

Not at all

[danlhart87]

let's predict 59

[Bluefire4]

Drew Sample? There were plenty of better tight ends on the board...

Yes

[HOF19]

Not the end of the world if we do not pick a WR in 2nd round .

What did they do?

[RNGDShobby]

59 - Juan Thornhill, Mack Wilson

Oh, they got A.J. Brown...

They got to host the Draft?

He's someone I continuously moved up my board as time progressed. He needs to develop some more moves on the outside, but he was extremely productive at TCU and had all kinds of TFLs. 

 

Then he goes to the senior bowl and has a good week and follows that up with a great combine showing his athleticism. He ended up as a mid-late second round grade for me.

[JMichael557]

We are going to pick David sills. In 3rd or 4th at wr.

He was projected around the 3rd by most and at this rate, he could fall to the 4th unless there's a run on WR's.

[Bluefire4]

The Colts seem to draft a lot of Senior Bowl and Shrine Game standouts with Chris Ballard at GM.

[danlhart87]

59 Jace Sternberger.

The Vikings need a QB

[csmopar]

From ESPN:

 

Banogu is an athletic edge defender with good length and speed. He slips blocks and disrupts plays in the backfield. He has a quick first step and good flexibility for a speed rusher. Banogu played outside linebacker during Senior Bowl practices and appeared to get more comfortable as the week progressed. His 40-yard dash, short shuttle and three-cone times were all above the average for an OLB prospect.

Post-Draft Analysis

The Colts signed Justin Houston but that hasn't stopped them from continuing to upgrade a pass rush that tied for 19th in the NFL with 38 sacks last year. Banogu has the tools to develop into every-down player in time, most likely at outside linebacker. -- Steve Muench
