DRAFT DAY 2020 ! ! !
-
I know FO's say this all the time about whomever they take, but somehow I believe DePo.
Me too! Here's why. Jedrick Wills was also the Tackle Joe Thomas picked for us in the NFL Channel's mock draft - despite the fact Andrew Thomas was also available at the time he did so.
I get the feeling Joe was a consulting/influential part of Wills being "the top tackle on our board from the beginning" consensus within.

When he did that I was very afraid he had tipped our hand and was sending Wills to another smart team before our pick. Must have been the ole double reverse psychology at work. ?

EDIT-- There are some great video phone player reactions out there, that I hope the nfl keeps moving these legit home video cameras around to next rounds..It's been great, but the media guys we've heard from for months, just ain't doing it for me anymore ?... Let these kids get a breather than let them speak.. The reaction of Joe Thomas reacting to Wills pick? Yep! I Cried in laughter ?
Browns & Buffett: Got to go fishin, Down to rock bottom again, with just a few Friends -
Chiefs take Clyde Edwards-Helaire RB LSU with #32 pick.
Chiefs take Clyde Edwards-Helaire RB LSU with #32 pick.
This was one of the really great picks in the draft. He has so much ability catching out of the backfield and so many "getaway" moves in the open field and power to finish off the play. He is a perfect fit for Mahomes's style of play. They are going to be even better than last year with that pick alone.

Yeah... until that Oline play catches up with them again like it did in the regular season.

Like I said-the Mahomes style of play. He makes everything out of nothing and finds open receivers. When you win a SB that way, it kind of negates weaknesses doesn't it??

why did i see another Mark Ingram flash after the Holaire pick..saying Big Trust ? ( damm i drank to much!)

No, it doesn't. Sophomore starting year and he's already missing games regular season because of taking hits that his Oline allows. Long term trends don't side with that style of play. If KC feels their defense is adequate enough to get it done, then I'm cool with that. But they would be wise to address their Oline Day 2.

I don't disagree with day 2 OL pick. I'm just saying this is a quick release safety valve who can do wonders in that role. Don't want the big hit? Get rid of it to him.
Besides we all know those big fatties are a dime a dozen don't we???
EDIT: That is why I hope we take a similar player in Duvernay of UT-Austin as our comp pick in the 3rd.

That's hilarious Aggies! Is that a younger Freddie Kitchens on the horse on his way to calling plays in Cleveland?

*Shudders at ghoolie*
I don't disagree with the strategy either. But if ECE was drafted as a 3rd down back and extra receiving option, I question the value of taking him in the 1st round. IOL could have been a pick there for them. And you know Andy Reid, he LOVES his vertical shots. Only way to secure that long term play style and preserve the health of your QB is to make sure he isn't taking unnecessary hits.
Like I said, I get the philosophy. I just disagree on the placement of the pick is all.

Normally I might agree, but this draft is very deep in OLs and very short on this kind of player. Now if their second pick is not OL ................well another story completely.?

Jack’s go for the corner back from Florida. So both Wills and Wirfs are on the board

Who are the "Jack's?"
-
We have 8 viable lineman on the roster - guys that can start. We traded picks for Teller and everyone wants a better guy at that spot. Might be time to slow our roll with these sandwich eaters
how many lineman will be active each week? I think you may grab one late or do the Undrafted free agent route and let a group of guys compete for the last spot
-
I'm surprised at that one. I liked this draft - much faster.
Seems pretty consistent that character played a good part of the first round prospects drafted. A lot of great stories...
I'm not going to be surprised if Wills starts at LT - he's a great pick and has already been working on it. I'm good with that.
Second round- no idea. Safeties/lb/wr is my guess - might Mckinney fall to the Browns?
I said the same thing. The speed of the picks was great, wonder if they will consider the 10 minute time frame in the future.

Broncos take Jerry Judy Judy Judy Judy
As a Broncos fan I was elated with the pick. It's perfect for their new starting QB.

You can shove the Broncos up your butthole. Please.

It was talk to text.......so it was meant to be JAX.
But hell yea, I like it... why not. Naming a team The Jacks. After Jack...or after the playing card. A lot better than some shitty team names.

Last time I shill for you.... bucko...
Here's a thought, h... sell a couple bottles...
I actually own a bottle of that '90 Petrus Tour, and I do have a friends & family buyer for it that I'm selling it to at a discount. At $145 dollars an ounce, too rich for my blood.
My opinion on that- I could enjoy it for an hour or so, or have it pay for my Browns season tickets. Not a tough decision. FWIW, I've been fortunate enough to be able to taste on several occasions (and not on my nickel) wines that were in the four figure range if they had been sold instead. Trust me, they weren't 10 times better than $100 dollar bottles, or in some cases not even better than $50 wines. At that rarefied level you're drinking rarity and "prestige". Or you're not too bright. A great example of that is "Ace of Spades" champagne owned by Jay Z. At $300+ bucks a bottle one expert taster said you could do as well for $70.
On a personal level, I was asked to do a Christmas champagne tasting for the local American Wine Society. So I pulled Dom Perignon and Moet's one step down Vintage Brut- at 1\3 the price, served them side by side- but the folks didn't know which was which, or even the producer. Which do you like better? It split right down the middle- so at three times the price, wasn't worth it. I even have a name for it when I teach a wine class. Larry's Logarithmic Law of diminishing returns.

Larry. Where do you put the 1990 Chateau Montrose? That’s my benchmark.

I don't know: Our depth chart:
LT Wills......Hubbard
LG Bito....Malcolm Pridgeon
OC Tretter.....Evan Brown
RG Teller.....Drew Forbes
RT Conklin....Hubbard (double duty)
Right now on the roster also are Kendall Lamm, Colby Gosset and Willie Wright at spots along the OL.
Are any of you fully and completely satisfied with this roster such that you believe that we do not lead to look any further at OL in this draft? I can't really say that I think we are there.

I am. And we threw a lot of cash and even some picks to get this unit to where it is right now. I say no more
i want some hungry undrafted FAs and maybe a 6th or 7th dueling it out for the last roster spot. Truthfully do you see the #9 being active?
We need defense badly. The last month was a disgusting display of football. Watch the Cardinal game or second Steeler game or the bengal game
I don’t like any of our backers. We have Redwine as 3rd safety. We have a DE that is going to be one more year (maybe) and he’s always hurt.

Well, no doubt, to me, the safely and LB is what we gotta go get now.
Backup OL is now a much lower priority.
