I like the Corleone pick. We'll call him the enforcer. And Zuhn is a guy who can play any position along the line and is a real leader and playcaller, often shifting to center. He'll be gone before 201. And I see what you did there at 243 cal,jr.?️

This looks like a good place to add this while we're having fun with this thread. They did the awards show last night and one of Utah's 2 outstanding Tackles got the Outland Trophy Award. Even though he's a RT, we're not prejudice here - we desperately need that too...

This might even work out better than your 1st draft when you chose Utah's LT Caleb Lomu first (especially if he doesn't enter the draft). I did the same thing and then last night RT Spencer Fano won the Outland Trophy Award for his effort. Then you added Iowa T Gennings Dunker at #78 (and I noticed he was a popular choice falling to many in here). He fell to me too. I was just too distracted & dumb to snap him up. Before Kirk Ferentz became HC at Iowa - he was the OL Coach in Cleveland from 93-95. Even though Iowa only has the recruiting attraction of corn fields - Ferentz's very competitive Big 10 football program has always put great Olinemen and TEs in the NFL. Unfortunately for him, Iowa doesn't win any bidding wars for the elite QBs in the country.
Here's a video about Dunker.

Well oh yeah. How about me drafting the SEC DPOTY Cashius Howell in the 3rd round no less??
He might also have the best first name in the draft. Who's spelling it wrong us or him?
I could almost hear him getting announced for a boxing title in Vegas "The King of Sting - Cashius "Play" Howell-Anyonebeatem"

All you guys beating the table for offensive line….here you go.
Bring back the guards add a vet offensive tackle and let’s roll with this.
I hate picking at #4. I don’t see an offensive lineman or WR I want at 4. I can stomach someone at 7 with some ammo for next year too.
With the simulation Mendoza was available and the Jets traded up and we grabbed their 7th, 47th and second next year.
I’m a fan of Antonio Williams out of Clemson and I’d like to take another swing at QB (late) Mensah if he comes out or Taylen Green out of Arkansas who is raw but has an arm and is super athletic.
I like Fisher out of Indiana. At the very least he’s a special teams standout. Sutton is an underachiever twitchy edge

And I don't compare him with Garrett. More the size speed and position of standup OLB Von Miller coming out of college.

You've seen more of him than any of us so I believe you. Von Miller was a damn good player in the NFL before injuries and wear and tear impacted him. Wasn't he a SB MVP?

You can always use good DT's. If one that is rated BPA when we draft I will never put that down as a bad selection. That said if all is fairly equal I probably pass. We have a pretty solid grouping as is and DT is a position where you can usually find adequate back-up in free agency.
I am usually very solid with the idea of drafting BPA. That said, I am not in favor of drafting players who are primarily going to be back-up players when you are seeking starters at multiple positions. Basically we are going to hand a job to 1 offensive lineman and 1 receiver. Another offensive lineman might work his way in to a starter position as the season moves on. Unless something too good to be true happens, I wouldn't look to draft a DT before round 5. I think we have 3 picks in that round. I could see using one of those picks on a DT.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -

Which is why in my draft above I took a "gift" of Kayden McDonald DT from OSU at pick 42. I think he's exactly what we need.

There's a Texas Tech LBer Jacob Rodriguez that earned the Dick Butkus Award for Best Linebacker; Bednarik Award for Defensive Player of the Year; and Bronko Nagurski Award for Best Defensive Player. He's a turnover machine - would be ideal working alongside Schwesinger. And if you look at the 2nd video near the end - McAfee has some fun with J-Rod's prior experience as a QB. Round 3 or round 4? Take a peek...
