GingerSaint Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 1 hour ago, Marshmallo said: Jackson will be great fun, tough to project how he'll do given no team will let him do what he got away with in Louisville though. Too slight to run that much against NFL defences as well imo. Didn't realise Darnold had already declared, he's a clear bust I reckon. Baker Mayfield will be 2018's DeShaun Watson. Better athlete than he gets given credit for, big arm, good decision maker, self belief through the roof and, most importantly, plenty experience leading a huge programme in key games. Kerryon Johnson has declared as well I saw, he'll be a great take for anyone in the second round, which is where he's projected. Absolute tank and dat patient stutter step. Baker Mayfield reminds me of Carson Wentz as a prospect. I think Mayfield can have success early on in the right offense. He is a fantastic athlete and can throw on the run very well, but he doesn't have the footwork or poise to hang in the pocket as a passer (yet). He escapes too quickly, puts his linemen in difficult positions and goes off script somewhat. All his receivers are wide open and he hasn't shown the ability to anticipate openings in zone coverage or throw before a receiver is out of his break. Quick throws and play action boot leg would work very well with Mayfield. Plus, as you say, he seems to be a very motivated person and I love the fact that he was a walk on (similar to Carson Wentz who was a small school guy). I like Mayfield, Jackson and Rosen. Still undecided on Darnold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 I hope the Giants take Josh Rosen but my favourite player in the draft is Saquon Barkley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Clyde Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 All 3 of the mock drafts on nfl.com have the Bears taking CB Denzel Ward. Also there seem to be a lot of decent CBs available in Free Agency. So far our GM has never drafted a player in the Secondary ahead of about Round 4. We always seem to Draft promising but raw players with our first pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Rumours that the Bills are looking to trade up in the draft to secure Josh Rosen and have targeted the New York Giants number 2 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 49ers won the coin toss against the Raiders for 9th pick. In true NFL style it's absolutely cringeworthy to watch, Gruden looks like he would much rather be somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Anyone else being watching some of the combine over the past couple days Not really, just watched some of the highlight clips on Twitter and Facebook. I see Michigan DT Maurice Hurst has been sent home after it was discovered he has a heart condition. Lot of experts had him down as a cert first round pick.

lichtie23 Posted March 4, 2018 Author Share Posted March 4, 2018 Anyone else being watching some of the combine over the past couple days Iv only seen stuff on Twitter. Due to work it’s been difficult. Any stand out performances? I see some WR had a vertical jump of 40 inches. That’s impressed some. No records in the 40?

ICTChris Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 The Browns just signed Carlos Hyde - does that make them less likely to draft Saquon Barkley? Seems unlikely to spend a top five pick on a running back when they just spent heavily on the position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may need to use a high pick on an OT, with Joe Thomas retiring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fife Saint Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Hell of a backfield with them both there. They may need to use a high pick on an OT, with Joe Thomas retiring Dorsey was speaking to tonight and I didn't get the impression a tackle was the focus based on who they've picked up, they obviously knew JT was calling it a day.It's still QB #1 and best player available at 4 or trade down, I think...

Brummie Clyde Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Bound to be someone trading up to try and get Barkley if he’s available at say no. 3. From a Bears point of view I think we’ll go for an Edge Rusher unless the OG Nelson is still available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
