Please take the round 2 discussion here:

 

I've moved more recent posts to that thread.

Any corners or Lb’s available. We missed the boat on Wr’s.

I'm not a fan of Franklin at all. I think he'd be a slightly smaller Pierce with worse hands. His game just doesn't move the needle for me at all.

I think it’s safe to say we won’t get an explosive play maker in the draft.  Either we roll with what we have plus some complimentary WR or we make a trade. It’s a little disappointing but that’s how the board fell.

IDK. This list doesn’t excite me. So many went in the first.

 

I get this odd feeling Ballard will go with Ladd Mcconkey. Heck of a route runner I will say that and really fast. I can see Ballard doing that.

Do you guys think he can play safety? He doesn’t fit what they like in cornerbacks.

Safety - definitely. Very good football player. Well worth moving up in the draft for as long as you do not expect him to be CB1

Seems like Ballard tried to do a lot this off-season (signing Hunter, trading up), but it didn't work out. That sucks. I kind of wish he wouldn't have admitted that lol.

And it was for an offensive player he basically said!

I mean we did get the first defensive player off the board at 15. If he offered a lot to trade up it most likely meant that he wanted to get one of Nabers, Odunze, or MHJ.

 

Who knows though, maybe we trade our second (and probably a bit more) for one of the 49ers WRs tomorrow.

A lot of WR went this draft so that means less teams draft them next year which will be better for us! I expect we go WR probably next year since we tried to trade up in the top for one of them.

Hopefully after the draft they can make a deal to get an explosive play maker. I don’t like what’s left.

Alot of the fast guys left have bad hands and struggle versus press coverage

Ok Chris.. Move up and get Dejean he will be an impact safety for the next decade.

I'd like to get Mitchell, but he's probably going at the top of the second. Not to big of a fan of any of the other WRs projected in the second round. Most of the top talent at that spot were taken in an extremely offense centered round 1.

 

Based on what Ballard said in his presser, he does realize that this team needs an explosive pass catcher, which is why he wanted to trade up. Maybe a trade with the 49ers is an option here. It could help explain why Buckner's contract was restructured.

    • Trade him? He just handed him a nice extension.
    • Yes, thanks, you’re right. When the Panthers traded to get the 1 is when Ballard said he didn’t have all the information to make the trade. That’s strange to me.  “Didn’t want to make a blind decision without all the information,” Ballard told reporters Monday. “I know for people, they might not understand that. But I think history kind of tells you that when you do that, you better know what you’re getting. And we weren’t quite ready to do that at that time. And then we feel like there’s enough depth in the draft that we were gonna be okay.”   This was in late March. Ballard had a chance to get the 1 and use it to take Stroud not Young. I think it’s strange he said he didn’t move up to 1 because it would have been a “blind decision.” Why would it be a blind decision in March? Why wouldn’t you know what you’re getting? You’re getting whoever you want if you get the 1. It didn’t happen, but Ballard could have recognized that Stroud was going to be superior, could have made the trade and could have drafted him. Ballard admits it never occurred to him to attempt the trade because it would be a “blind decision.” 
    • I cringed after seeing the way his leg bent underneath him to the point of him sitting down on it. Buckner is one tough dude and to see him needing help to get off the field is when I knew he was going to be out for a while.
    • He probably felt confident Bowers would still be on the board at 15 once he made it past NYJ at 11.  He could've been trading up with other teams to move up to get Brock Bowers, but unfortunately, the Raiders had their eyes set on him and took him at 13.
    • Not now...   Let the year play out. Maybe at the end of the season...
