I like this draft. I solved problems. I got skills and talent. mic drop
I got Garrett's teammate Hall, he made plays as well. I think that with a front of Nassib, Shelton, Hall flanked by Ogbah, Collins, Kirksey and Garrett would be lethal. Back em up with Haden and Kindred at Safety, put Jackson and Taylor at corners... we'll have a strong D, with a lot of other players returning from injury. I mean you could even keep Haden at CB and put Jackson in the slot for a while. We found a good player in DKindred, he reminds me a little of Ward. We could try and pick up a FA Safety to cover the other slot or see if Campbell can take it.
Offense is sick looking. Our Oline will recover next season... Our line will look ages better with Trubisky's dual threat and quick release. Our WR triple threat... GORDON! Pryor and Coleman will finally materialize. RB group of Duke, McCaf and Pumphrey will be to quick and fast to catch.
And we got a legitimate contender to hold Dawson's jockstrap.

Scratch Derek Barnett off my first round list and as a premium pass rusher.
Next up, Tim Williams tape.

so what are the legitimate chances that we select garrett and he declines it and asked for trade immediately?

Agree with war on both counts.

What did you see that made you scratch Barnett?

Oh?

What did you see that made you scratch Barnett?
It's what I didnt see. His first step lacks explosion, kid plays heavy footed.
No ability to dip and bend getting under and by the tackle. Also saw no strong bull rush to compensate.
Makes decent enough use of his hands, stacks and sheds well enough. But if this team is looking for a pass rusher first and foremost, he ain't it.

Thanks for the insight. I hadn't watched the kid so I wanted to know what the hangup was.

I'm looking at WalterFootball and Charlie Campbell has got us:
1. Myles Garrett (DE/OLB)
9. Mike McGlinchey (OT)
33. Gareon Conley (CB)
50. Marcus Maye (S)
Two questions:
1. What does everyone think about us skipping an offensive lineman and stocking up on stud defensive players? I wouldn't mind grabbing Marlon Humphrey (if he slides to the 9th) or Jamal Adams as opposed to another OL. I know that this draft class is loaded with defensive backs, but why not og after the two best ones? Humphrey looks special.
2. Charlie Campbell has Tim Williams at 27, and he questions his ability to be an every-down backer/end. Isn't he the more reputable one vs. Walter?

I'm happy skipping OL in a weak OL class, given our *relative* depth at the position.

Plus... and this is simply based on history... I think there will be at least one hidden, OL gem waiting to be mined on Days 2 and 3.

I know, at least between myself and you, this has been a theme for the past couple years.
In that time I've seen these value picks bloom so I'm on board with day 2 or 3 lineman.
But to ignore the OL completely if it's suggested...? Not a chance.

Me qb #1, BPA defense with the Eagles pick, and BPA o-line with either of the second round picks.

FA....FA....FA.....
Im hoping the Browns decide to sign someone this year.....and OL would be the perfect place to start to avoid a repeat of this season and also avoid the inevitable growing pains of a rookie(or 2) on the OL.....which would(again) be a repeat of this year.....

Ok....just did my first "draft game" of the season.....and went against everything Ive been saying....traded back...then drafted a QB high.....then drafted OL help, instead of just signing some......none the less, Id take it.....gonna try another approach on the next one tho.....

All Offense. Franchise QB, Franchise RB, Rebuilt the Oline from the Center out to the RT, picked up a dual threat FB and a change of pace back that doubles as a dangerous threat on KR/PR... and didn't touch the next two drafts.
I think defensively once we get everyone back healthy next season we will be good.

I'll add this veteran idea to the discussion with mixed feelings. The TN Titans are not going to re-sign Chance Warmack this year and their line has improved quite a bit in his absence. They were talking on the radio at length about this the other day and it was said that he had a choice to play through an injury (that their medical staff felt was doable with ongoing rehab) or get the surgery. He chose the surgery and it was another thing that rubbed their brass the wrong way about his commitment. If I'm a player, I'd want the surgery that brings me back closer to 100% than performing at a fraction of my capability so I'm not sure I agree with how he is perceived by the Tits.
I'm leaning toward hoping we can try to sign Warmack with the uncertainties to both of our OGs. Both Warmack and Cooper were elite prospects coming out in the draft. Both guys are young too; and it would free up other areas/priorities on draft day to address first. We also have plenty of money to do this without worrying about cap health.
At the draft, I'd like to focus on defense early and often beginning with Allen or Garrett and then upgrading help at Safety and Corner.

Like the sentiment, Flugs... just not sure about the target.
I know how controversial PFF OL grades are here, but we'd be pulling a piece of their 29th ranked, 2015 OL of which they wrote:
Summary: They’ve tried to fix the line, but it just hasn’t worked. Taylor Lewan looks like a hit, but Chance Warmack has never lived up to the billing. Outside of that, they have a lot of guys playing, but none catching the eye, making up a particularly porous protection unit.
Not exactly a condemnation, but not an endorsement either.
Did he make a leap this year?
