DRAFT Day two: Rds 2 and 3

[JYB]

Yeah, they overpaid. That happens in trade ups. But I use a trade calculator at the below link. They overpaid by about 15%.

Definitely overpaid, but if Fiske turns out to be a great player, nobody will remember or care.

Still wondering why Washington drafted Newton when you already have and are paying Jonathan Allen and DeRone Payne. Some teams just can't get out of a cycle of stupidity I guess.

Let's go all defense the first two days - give me an ILB and a ball hawk free safety in the third!

Let's go all defense the first two days - give me a CB and I guess McVay can have his wide receiver late!

Fixed~

 

[JYB]

They're looking at it the wrong way. Again, the Rams moved up in the second with a second (next year in a weaker class) and a fifth. They didn't give up any of their four third round picks (as of now), and they'll have plenty of ammunition to trade up and down as needed.

By all objective measures, they overpaid. Let's just hope Fiske makes it worth the price.

Don’t like that the Steelers pick right in front of us, especially if there’s a D guy we’re all salivating will to fall to us

I could see them double dipping OL with Frazier from West Virginia

Suzy Kolber begs to differ…….

Like I give a flying fuck about Suzy Kolber. But if you do, congrats!

 

[CanadianFan]

I got my edge and my DT. Go take the BPA now!

She's a cutie, but why is she a topic in the draft thread?

Virtue signalling.

And I objectively state, it was worth the risk, considering the drop-off of the DT class, the fact that we gave up none of our thirds this year (both of which can be used to move up or - more likely - down the board.

I don't look at it as overpaying; if you see your target potentially getting picked before you, you do what you have to do.

Yeah, my buddy is a commodes fan and didn't get the pick, all while I'm sobbing.

And the drop off was very real. Maason Smith is a big downgrade to Fiske, who some "experts" had in the 1st.

It’s really that simple, isn’t it? When the guy starts making pro bowls and putting up crazy stats, nobody will give two shits what he cost us.

Somebody has to toot my horn and @Loyal fell asleep at the wheel it seems

 

[Merlin]

Maybe the Rams had Fiske at say 20 on their draft board. If that's the case their valuation of the move-up doesn't look so bad.

Bottom line is fans don't know the team boards. Watching Kiper and all these other guys do their boards gets you in the ballpark but teams are at a different level with this shit. And it's still guesswork I think.

 

[muggmeister]

And finally a Carl Nassib appearance, just had to happen didn't it?
