Underclassmen Declarations for 2017 NFL Draft
-
Christian McCaffrey declared earlier today.
Leonard Fournette declared a few days ago.
D'Onta Foreman out of Texas declared last week I believe.
Lots of RB's this year.
Christian McCaffrey declared earlier today.
Talk about a PLAYER! I just love the way he plays. It'll be interesting to see where he ends up, but he WOULD make the Pats even more scary than they already are.

IN DORSEY I TRUST -

Mike
I wonder if he will be a first round pick.
-
Probably depends on whether a team starts a RB run early.
The RB class of 2017 could yield as many as five 1st rounders. It is being touted as the most talented since 2008, the last time five went in the first. But in addition to 2017's obvious quality at the top, it is also seen as one of the deepest at the position. That, plus the relative devaluing of the position, might push the group as a whole down the board.

Scan the above list and you realize even 2016 did not exactly suck yielding a few quality starters and a few more role playing RBs.
Scan further and you'll come across a few "where-are-they-now" names, e.g., Beanie Wells.
-
There have been plenty of sure thing RBs that haven't worked out too - Bishop Sankey anyone?
-
Between McCaffrey and Switzer out of UNC, BB should be loving this draft from an offensive weapons stand point.Talk about a PLAYER! I just love the way he plays. It'll be interesting to see where he ends up, but he WOULD make the Pats even more scary than they already are.

They might be in the market for a TE as well and there seem to be a few interesting options this year.

Yup... Butt just won the Mackey and has stud written all over him. Then there's BAMA's Howard and Clemson's Leggett.
A couple of them can even block, too... what a concept...

I've been harping on about getting a new TE for a while now. One that can catch and block? Sorry big play barnidge, you're now second on the depth chart.
Can't see pats making TE a priority btw, with Gronk and Bennett

Tough to predict the Pats... very BPA driven and not a lot of sentimentality has been displayed during the BB years.
Gronk, while signed thru 2020, has injury issues and a contract that is only cap unfriendly thru 2017.
Bennett is only rented thru this season.
-
James Conner from Pitt declared as well.
-
Like the thread, going to be some work after the bowl season.

Samaje Perine

Seemed like a good idea to have a thread to accumulate/ tabulate who is going to join the party and who is not... and maybe state why we might care. Also providing a link to a report of the announcement might be helpful.
I'll tabulate Offense and Defense by position in the posts 2 and 3 of those that are entering the draft.
Hey, If everyone hasn't Thanked-you already for assembling this thread, "THANKS" ... great shit. Makes the forum.
-
Yeah, that was a God damn shame. Butts stock took a considerable hit but I've seen him play. Well rounded TE in the Witten mold. He isn't as athletic as some of the other guys but he has good footwork, fluid movement, the right size and great feel for route leverage as a big man.
Even if he wouldn't get to play until mid season, id be happy with investing a solid pick into Jake.

For sure. How early of a pick are you comfortable with the team using on a guy who could have complications bouncing back? A fifth rounder wouldn't cut me too deep but I could see a team like the Pats spending a 4th.
