Sounds very promising. Remenber just because we haven’t heard of him doesn’t mean he will be a bust. This probably means no Ertz.

 

 

Ertz can still be in the mix, but not with his current contract

 I wasn't expecting this, but I also wasn't expecting our first two picks.  Seems like a play maker with some drop issues and not much of a blocker.  6' 1 1/2" 230lbs, looking for his 40.

 

 

4.63 40; sub 7 second  3 cone!

Reich and Wentz like throwing to TEs, so he fits. apparently very good running after the catch, but had problems with drops. On the tube they said he's not a blocker, but in a video with NFL.com, Granson himself said he loves to block.

you're right, probably means no Ertz.

 

I think maybe Josh Ball from Marshall in round 5.

I'm seeing that he is only 6' 1", 241.  Hardly TE size.  Had 4 drops in one game alone.


He’s Burton but reportedly doesn’t block well. I suppose they can work on that...but he is limited by size.

 

Seems like they are just replacing outgoing players from last year’s with this draft. Probably a S next.

Would have made sense to take a guy like Friermuth then in 2, over a developmental DE that is essentially a redshirt. Just my opinions obviously 

In your opinion like you said.  Clearly Ballard disagreed.  I think he would tell you he feels like they got two first round picks with their first two picks.  Friermuth wouldn’t have given them that.

He is basically Trey Burton on a rookie deal.

 

Receiving TE which is a need.

 

Draft expert Dane Brugler says:

Athletic mover with smooth hip action, accelerates quickly into his routes to immediately stress linebackers or safeties, can shake the first defender."

    • https://www.nfl.com/news/bill-tobin-longtime-nfl-executive-dies-at-age-83   He drafted some all time great players like Harrison, and of course is famous for his verbal match with Mel Kiper. RIP!
    • Then begs the question. Do u want to say draft a MJH at 4 and turn around in 4 years or would u say draft Turner and pay him 30mill in 4 years? All day every day for the franchise rush end. I am not a big believer in 30 mill for a wr. Reid is a fantastic coach and look what he did with Hill.
    • I literally just posted that clip, it's where the conversation about QBs started.
    • Funny you brought this up.  I just listened to an interview Ballard did today with Rich Eisen.  He asked him if he has given any thought on how many quarterbacks will be taken before our pick and how many does he think.  He said sure we go through those evaluations.  It helps us with for planning purposes.  He asked him how many.  4 or 5 or 6?   He laughed out loud at 6.  He said Rich if it’s 6 we will be so excited.  Let’s hope so.  He also said the draft board is not yet set.  Won’t be until the night before the draft.  He also said he has had multiple conversations with other GM’s concerning the draft.  Preparing themselves for opportunities that could take place.  And they will continue up until the draft starts.  He said trade conversations won’t really materialize until you are within three picks of any trade.  Giving you time to finalize it.  Interesting interview.  Oh he pretty much ruled out moving up for Harrison.   Going up into the top of the draft would be very costly for him he said.  Thinks he’s a great talent but he thinks he’s pretty much out of our reach.
    • I personally wouldn’t touch Williams with a 10 foot pole. He seems like a distraction and cancerous. He may be Uber talented but I don’t feel like he is a winner, and don’t feel like his heart is in it. I think he gets the bag and just sets it on cruise control. There is absolutely nothing to base this off of aside from my gut feeling.  Maye Daniels  Penix Nix McCarthy   Maye is your prototype passer and I think his deficiencies are easily fixed with good coaching.   Daniels seems the most limited to me, proficient and will be very dependent on where he goes.    Will always have a soft spot for Penix, he throws such a pretty deep ball. His 40 time should have opened some eyes.   Nix is probably the safest pick IMO. I think he’s got the tools to fit nearly any offense. Has the athleticism, arm talent and I think he’s got the between the ears to excel in most offenses.   I see the appeal with McCarthy, he was as unselfish as they come allowing the run game to shine instead of checking to pass plays. I think his ceiling is a solid game manager.
