My final thought - McDermott was definitely behind this pick in a way, especially now that he's calling plays
His tape looks great. I'm sure McD has plans for him on D , even if it is in a package and not full time
He is the opposite if Edmunds , instincts and playing speed wise and I trust McD, he has has a perennial top 5 D
At the end of the day he got us 3 straight divisional titles. 4 straight playoff appearances.
He picked our franchise QB and a top 3 WR through the draft process
I love last years draft class too. We're loaded on both sides and just got 3 day 1 starters
It's the new NFL.
Our biggest rivals - Cincy and KC are going to throw way more than run. Need that speed , athleticism and coverage skill in this scheme
If he has some legit instincts, he'll be a better fit than Tremaine
Regardless, I'm trusting the instincts of Beane and Co who live and breathe scouting.
For Beane to go ilb for 2 straight years w a top 100 pick, makes me like this pick even more.
Best believe he's well in tuned with the criticism he'll face if neither develop into a starter
Beane has some nice hits on day 3 picks. Taron, Wyatt Teller, Benford , Gabe, Milano (technically Whaley), Diggs was a 5th, Dane etc etc
The league is flooded with day 3 star players
That'd be amazing but maybe not wise. Paying top dollar to 2 30+ WRs
I sound like a broken record but I truly believe Hardy will take a bunch of reps from Davis and he could be used more like in 21
