    2024 NFL Draft 2nd and 3rd round gamethread: Baruch atah Adonai WITH SPOILERS

    Fuck Wolf. Two reaches. I like Polk enough to not be too mad about it but Wallace is criminal at 68. What are we doing?

    2024 NFL Draft 2nd and 3rd round gamethread: Baruch atah Adonai WITH SPOILERS

    Yeah but I don't have a starting grade on him. This was a massive reach and imo a shitty pick. It might work out for him to be a low level LT or an average RT. I don't think so. I hate this pick. He was like 186 on the consensus board. Polk was a reach by a round. He is a reach by 2-3 rounds...

    I trust Thorn too. Lance Z is also very much an OL guy and he has Sua as more of a 4th round kind of prospect. Consensus is around 40-45. I am more like pick 85. It just depends on how much you think you can develop guys and if you need to play him right away.

    Yeah Sua is a bet on athleticism, size, length, etc. Would I make that bet? No. But I get it if an NFL team does. Even your OL experts are torn on him. Personally I chase high floors with OTs and Sua isn't that. I chase ceiling with WRs.

    2024 NFL Draft 2nd and 3rd round gamethread: Baruch atah Adonai WITH SPOILERS

    Paul has some technique issues in pass pro + will never be a good run blocker. Specifically he stops his feet and gets complacent allowing for secondary moves. He also can overset and let guys get inside on him. Run blocking wise he just doesn't get the right leverage and doesn't have a ton of...

    2024 NFL Draft 2nd and 3rd round gamethread: Baruch atah Adonai WITH SPOILERS

    I loved Deebo coming out. I do not like Corley. Corley is the worst route runner I have seen recently. He honestly doesn't know how to play WR. I mean that. He is more CP84 than Deebo. I have a bunch of clips of him turning the wrong way or not knowing how to play vs his leverage or just these...

    2024 NFL Draft 2nd and 3rd round gamethread: Baruch atah Adonai WITH SPOILERS

    Roman Wilson is another guy where he looks good in college but his speed isn't special in the NFL and he is a mediocre route runner PLUS he is bad RAC! If Wilson significantly upgraded his routes then yes he could be a quality vertical slot. He is an older player, a late breakout, and a bad...

    2024 NFL Draft 2nd and 3rd round gamethread: Baruch atah Adonai WITH SPOILERS

    I think when you are trying to rebuild a culture it would be a mistake to take someone like Mitchell. Plus, even his best reps to me suggest high end WR2 not WR1. Specifically has some odd releases that play him into contact even when he chops. He also isn't very good at contested situations. He...

    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    I would have no issues with Paul at 34. I don't think he is a reach at all. Consensus has him around 60. Look, he won't ever be a good run blocker but who cares. LT is about pass pro and he is good in pass pro!

    2024 Bengals: What Can Brown Do For You?

    None. He is actually pretty polished for a guy with 8 starts. He could start at RT day 1. LT too maybe but you never know.

    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    The thing with Coleman is he gives you windows of separation but not for terribly long. Drake Maye right now is more of a see-it throw-it guy vs a true anticipator. Does that pairing make the most sense right now? Not sure. I think Coleman should be a Bengal.

    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    I agree with your assessment of Ladd, @j44thor. He is a very good player. I still don't love the fit compared to other WRs but Ladd is fantastic. I think Coleman is an X or a big slot and he can play either position. I saw him as more of an X initially too.

    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    We need WR (giant hole at X), LT, and if we have extra picks a TE would be nice. Sanders reminds me (and many who watched him) of Njoku. It wouldn't surprise me to see them go after him especially if they have an additional pick. That being said it's probably WR and OT on day 2. Who best fits...

    2024 Bengals: What Can Brown Do For You?

    He’s one of my favorite players in this draft. Love Mims! I think he can play LT too. I hope he stays healthy because he is a joy to watch!
