Camp Trubisky
-
Saw a very new mock draft (about an hour old) that has us taking Mitch #1, and then Cam Robinson, OT from Bama, with the Eagles' pick. Can't say I'd hate that. We'd need a lot of help from the football gods for that to happen, but talk about filling some major needs...
To build on that, don't be surprised to see the Browns trade back into the first round with (you guessed it!) the New England Patriots. The Patriots are notorious for trading back and acquiring picks, and would there really be THAT much difference from pick 33 to pick 30? So WHY would we want to do that? Well, I could see us doing that if the draft's top OG is available. His name is Dan Feeney I believe, and he plays for Indiana. He's a tough bastard, and that would fill another need. Yeah, we need safety, and yeah we need a corner...but we REALLY need another guard too.
-
No matter what happens, Trubisky will be gone in the first 3 picks of the draft. If not by the Browns then someone else.
So any talk of taking him lower in the first round is foolishness at this point, unless it is like found out that he has Leukemia or something. (remember Ernie Davis)
Too early to tell right now. There's still free agency and bowl games and the combine. It's possible SF somehow lands a FA QB they're happy with. I believe EJ Manuel and Geno Smith are both hitting FA.
Also a possibility, albeit an extremely rare one:
- RG3 starts for us for the last 4 games and throws for 1600 yards, 16 TDs and 0 INTs over that span.
- San Francisco offers us their first and second round picks for him and we take the deal. RG3 goes on to be extremely terrible for the 9ers.
- Philadelphia loses every game for the rest of the season and nets us something like the 6th overall pick.
- We go into the NFL Draft with picks #1, #2, #6, #33, #48, #65
- We sign Luke Joeckel as RT and Chance Warmack as RG.
- We take Myles Garrett, Jonathan Allen, Mitch Trubisky, Adoree Jackson, Budda Baker, and Tyler Orlosky
- In the 4-3, we'd havei Garrett and Nassib as true DE's, Allen as a 3-tech and Shelton at the 1-tech. Collins ROLB, Orchard LOLB, Kirksey MLB
- In the 3-4, we'd have Garrett and Allen as DE's and Shelton at NT, with Kirksey and Davis at ILB.
- We now have a new QB, RG, RT, and C on offense, and a new FS, CB2, DE, and other DL on defense.
- We also still have 100 picks in the next 4 rounds.
A guy can hope, right?

But we really really need a center better than Camshaft more.
Elflin (Ohio State) can play either. He moved from guard to center this year. MHO- problem solved. Assuming Reiter comes back and isn't the answer either. -

With the all the unknowns regarding the OL, the more versatility we have the better.But we really really need a center better than Camshaft more.

Pretty sure this week we're at at least Plan "D"...

I'd be ecstatic if we got our QB and the two best lineman in the draft.
Look at the Titans.
The last 4 years their first round has been
OL
OL
QB
OL
They were 2-14 two seasons in a row, and all of a sudden their franchise guy is protected, their running game is 2nd in the league, and they are firmly in the playoff hunt in December.
We should take a page out of their book.
-
No way we'll have the patience to go through what Tennessee has on the way up.
-
Well we did draft a first round OL last year, and second round the year before.

That's a pretty fair point, and it's similar to what the Cowboys have done. The Titans also invested heavily in the RB position, and it's paid dividends. Investing in the RB position is somewhat controversial, and many people are of the thinking that "you can get a decent RB anywhere." There might be some truth to that, but elite RB's aren't found every day either.
There's going to be a lot of pressure on this upcoming draft and free agency. Time to knock it out of the park.

Hold off for Guice from LSU in 2018, the "next" Elliot runs like a clone.

Are we sure by that time he won't be the 'next Fournette'? After all, Elliott was the first great, generation, can't miss running back since a guy named Todd Gurley was drafted by the then-St Louis Rams way back in 2015.
-
Fournette is still a better runner than Guice. The latter is probably a bit more athletic; maybe a better blocker.

Who Is Mitch Trubisky?
It’s the question evaluators across the league are scrambling to answer as the first-year UNC starter has established himself as the best draft-eligible quarterback in college football

I read that this morning, good article. I'd take either one of them at this point, though I'm still more in love with Kizer's potential than anything. Just no Watson, please.

As I've said, I thought he looked pretty good the only time I saw him during the only year he was able to start in the ACC. But, if we're talking about him for the 1st overall pick, it wasn't enough to change my football wood factor from balsa to sequoia.
