Name your favorite Non 1st Round Player for 2020 Draft


Recommended Posts

I thought this might be fun. Name your favorite player in the 2020 NFL Draft that will not be a 1st rounder. 
 

I really like Chase Claypool- WR Notre Dame 

He is big and fast and seems to have great hands. 
 

Just because you might need another example. Another player is Jared Pickney- TE Vanderbilt. He was a solid 1st- 2nd rounder last year. Had a very down season on a team that had no clue how use him, with a horrendous QB situation. Big bodied and great hands.

I think Gordon is as talented as anyone else (except top 2)

 

He will probably get overdrafted, and if he does well in workouts, interviews, and senior bowl, IF he was our guy, you would have to use a 2nd on him

 

He has some amazing throws on tape.

 

The ball is out FAST.......  He also seems to move well around the pocket, 

 

The guy HAS to put some weight on

 

I would be very happy with picks

 

- Best DL/OT on board

- Best OT/WR/DL on board

- Gordon / Eason

 

2nd is too early, (for Gordon at least)

but there are too many folks needing QBs

 

We are in a pickle if AC retires.

Ben Bredeson and Mekhi Becton. Would love to get them with our later 2nd and 3rd round picks. Absolute maulers on the O-Line.

If they are “absolute maulers”, id have to guess they won’t be there in the 2nd and 3rd

These kind of threads should be on the draft page....   not the Colts page.   
 

Good topic.  Wrong page.

 

Mods?!?

See , it is possible to talk QBs we like without trashing another.

I wish some others could learn this.

Thx for including clips too.  This is the way to make a point.

Watched the Gordon one.  At first, i thought his release looked odd.  But looking closer , his posture, throwing motion and release remind me of Mahomes.

Idk if he declares or not, but Chuba Hubbard is gonna be legit. Can't believe there's like 5-6 RB's that are all elite-ish, cuz unless you wanna count Jacobs, Monty, and Sanders, there wasn't much there in 2019, as far as RB's go. We have Swift, Taylor, Etienne, Dobbins, Akers, Chuba, and that's probably all I'd put in the elite tier, with Najee Harris and Zach Moss both being right there. Eno Benjamin kinda fell off this year, but he will still be a Nyheim Hines type player, imo.

Devin Duvernay, WR, Texas

- 85% catch rate, ran a 10.27 100M which should equate to 4.35 40, he's 5'11 and plays Slot, 103 Receptions for 1300 yds, used as KR also

 

Brandon Aiyuk, WR, Arizona State

- KR/PR/WR, This guy is a do-it-all 1200 yds WR; 500yd KR; 200yd PR, He has speed, agility, hands.

That was the first thing I thought. 
 

he also has a side arm throw like Mahomes as well

 

he ISNT Mahomes (for the exaggeration police)

 

but he has some similar traits

Its funny how important perfect mechanics are until they aren’t. You know?  
And i wasnt comparing him to Mahomes.  Mahomes has a unique release, as do most QBs i guess.  Some stand out for different reasons.  It might be interesting to know how much baseball background Gordon has.  Mahomes short throws remind me of a 2nd baseman stepping on bag and throwing to 1st.

If you go into his Anthony Gordon’s thread I have a video posted from his ex teammate. He stated he was drafted in mlb. Looked it up. He was drafted by Mets in 2015 in 26th round. He uncle also played pro baseball. So that answers your question.

Thx.

you know, sometimes this forum can be frustrating.

But i have to say, i get SOOOOOO much enjoyment from this place.  Great info, perspectives, and lots of laughs too.

  I’m not really on facebook.  Have account but haven't been on in maybe a year.  No interest.  Never did twitter, instagram, dating apps, nothin.  
  But living in Pa, its so nice to be able to feel the pulse of the team.... every day.  
  I wanna thank you, BBS, and everyone on here for contributing to a really wonderful resource for us Colt fans.  Near or far from Indy.

 

Thanks To All.

Brandon Aiyuk WR, Arizona State. He has great hands and speed. He’s also a good KR/PR. Good route runner and beats press coverage with ease. He’s a first round talent that will fall to the 2nd round because of how great this WR class is. 

 

I think Aiyuk is one of the receivers who is getting overlooked but I like him as a potential pick for the Colts.

 

Overall, I think my favorite non 1st round prospect for the Colts is Neville Gallimore. I think he is a great fit for the Colts defense and would bring a lot of what this team needs. (interior pass rush)

    • I was thinking a bit about what Ballard said in that clip from "Behind the Colts", about "he's not going to get much bigger". No idea if he was talking about Worthy... but if he is... he's right. Whether Worthy ends up playing at 165 or 176... this is still extremely small and light. Whether he's in the 1st percentile or 5th percentile of athlete's in weight in the league, this doesn't change the type of player and type of worries you would have about him with any significance. So... in a way, I kind of find that conversation a bit pointless. IMO the question should be - okay. he is small... and he will always be small. Can we work with that? 
    • You think the Ed Dodds you see in edited clips here is the same as the Ed Dodds who interviews with teams?   I don’t know you or anyone would think that?      He’s very much respected around the NFL which is why multiple teams ask to interview with them most every year. 
    • I was too hahaha  Why’s that
    • Round 1 - #15 A. Xavier Worthy, WR, Texas B. Brian Thomas, WR, LSU C. Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia   Round 2 - #46  A. Edgerrin Cooper, LB, Texas A&M B. Marshall Kneeland, DE, Western Michigan C. Jaden Hicks, S, Washington State   Round 3 - #82 A. Troy Franklin, WR, Oregon B. Darius Robinson, DE/DT, Missouri C. Ben Sinnott, TE, Kansas State   Round 4 - #117 A. Jalyx Hunt, DE, Houston Christian B. Mason McCormick, OG, South Dakota State C. Malik Washington, WR, Virginia   Round 5 - #151 A. Beaux Limmer, OC, Arkansas B. Tanor Bortolini, OC, Wisconsin C. Isaac Guerendo, RB, Louisville   Round 6 - #191 A. Decamerion Richardson, CB, Mississippi State B. Qwan'tez Stiggers, CB, Toronto C. Nick Gargiulo, OC, South Carolina   Round 7 - #234 A. Millard Bradford, SS, TCU B. Mark Perry, FS, TCU C. Dalton Tucker, OG, Marshall   BONUS: Will the Colts trade the #15 pick this year?  A: Yes, they will trade back.  
    • Yeah... Richardson needs players who can separate and who can get open deep. IMO "give the inaccurate QB a contested catch receiver with large catch radius" is one of the tropes that hasn't proven to work well. Contested catches have about 50-55% success rate even with the best of contested catch receivers and with relatively accurate QBs... now if you think AR's accuracy is not good, drop that rate even more. The best way to give a relatively inaccurate QB better chance to complete passes is to give him a WR who separates and and who is open so the QB would have more of a margin for error to throw the ball a little behind or ahead or a little higher or lower than ideal. (we are not talking about uncatchable balls here... those will be uncatchable for anyone really). In that regard, one thing I would agree about is - we need WRs who have good hands and have good ball skills.   And this is ignoring that AR has indeed been pretty good with his accuracy on passes at intermediate and long range. His biggest problem coming into the league was the short stuff and he was already showing improvements in that deparment before he got injured.    And Worthy is the WR who created the most separation from anybody in this draft :
