Mocking the post-Jalen trade landscape

I'd pick up Hall from BYU at 188 (if avail), otherwise go with anyone highlighted below and grab Dorian-Thompson with last pick.

This one kept giving me BPA small wideouts but I simulated locking McVay in the broom closet.

This time I remembered to get the kicker.

 

[PhillyRam]

We don't have pick 136. They still have us getting that 4th rd comp pick

 

[Merlin]

Killjoy.

I'm looking at Emmanuel Forbes' tape, and I keep thinking, "There's no way he gets out of the first round." He set an NCAA record for pick-sixes in a career. But if that was the draft we had, I'd be quite happy.

 

[Merlin]

Yeah I love him. Pair him out there with Durant and we'll have two guys who can flip the field. I think he's going to be a great pro.

 

[Merlin]

Also I didn't realize Hunter Luepke was in this draft until I drafted him on that site. Limited athletically I'm sure but he's a nice all-around player in the backfield. Tough, good hands, smart, I'd love to see us get him late rounds or UDFA.

I thought the same thing, but the guy is rail thin. Seriously very thin. I think he's likely a current liability in the run game and there is a lot of high end CB's in this draft. I could definitely see him falling to 36, or one of the other guys if he's gone.

 

[Merlin]

He doesn't look weak vs the run on his film. Not at all. He's projected to have probs vs the run at this level and rightly so, but we're also getting a ballhawk in round 2. A guy who might be a shutdown corner once he grows into his frame but either way he'll be a pain in the ass to opponents immediately.

I don't care if he's rail thin. Forbes can ball. He's a ballhawk, as I stated, but what I didn't state is that he's actually really good at any coverage, and he will not hesitate to stick his nose in with the running game.

Guys like that don't fall out of the first round.

10 year data of OL drafted (data 2020)


Need to draft OT's higher in the draft, G's more in the middle 3 rounds



Man so many decent G, C, and OT prospects out there this year we better go balls deep and get the players of the future!

Sometimes they do. NFL GMs are notorious for balking at physical metrics or looks. That's how we got AD99. ("He is too short"; "There is no way his collegiate performance will transfer to the pro level"; etc.) The GMs are bad enough at this that when I see an outstanding college player, I hope & pray there is some 'defect' that will scare most GMs away so the Horns can pounce on that player.

This would be awesome. Unfortunately, I feel the McVay talk about needing to get the offense back in top level means we’re going mostly O with the first 3-5 picks…and likely skill O guys (not OLs). I’m preparing myself for a RB, Small/fast WR, skinny TE, QB. I’m not going to allow myself to get mad again and throw anything at the TV when our pick(s) are announced. Lol

IF Skow can play FB...

Dude don’t get me started! Lol I’m just going to stay positive and look forward to the draft!

When they made that huge OL draft back in the day I felt the same way I do now so here’s to hoping!

Just so upset they didn’t get Creed still.

Forgive me... I don't.
Adebawore is a combine freak.. but reading more on him makes me less enthusiastic.
Also.. I would push harder for more picks in the top 150 in this draft.. I'd be happier with 9 or 10, overall... but as many top 150 as possible.
