Chuck Wagon Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 With the 13th pick in the 2019 NFL draft the Tennessee Titans select from Houston DT, Ed Oliver. Vrabel and the Titans make an aggressive move up the board to grab the sliding Oliver. Tennessee views him as a versatile piece that can be moved around the formation and add increased pass rush along with the addition of Cameron Wake. The Falcons and @buffalobillswin is on the clock. 2

Great job moving up ahead of the Falcons, I think that's who was taking Oliver next. Give credit to the FO of the titans for moving up and grabbing a guy they valued. 2

Like bkep said, good job moving ahead of the Falcons and taking the guy they almost CERTAINLY would have taken. Not a bad trade for the Titans, either, in that they re-couped later picks to replace the early ones they lost.
bkep32 Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 Suspense is killing me, I know Falcons have some time... I guess working in the office today does that.

I just don't think there's any way Oliver makes it down to 19, he fills a big need and is a cut above what will likely be on the board at 19. Changing the value for the rules hurts a little, it felt like a steal when the price was a late 2nd that turned into an early 4th, but it gives the Titans a premier prospect and loads up day 3 to allow targeting needs all over the board.

If Q. Williams ends up being a Beast......then our defense could potentially be elite It would only be worth it for me if he was Aaron Donald. I don’t think he is at that level. I would love to have him but losing a 2nd round pick is tough, that is the sweet spot in this draft. If we don’t get Allen some more help in rounds 1 or 2 this draft is a fail for me. 1
whatdrought Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 Very realistic trade by the Titans. Guy slides, you go get him. Good job.
buffalobillswin Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 Damn Ed Oliver was going to be my pick for the Falcons. The Atlanta Falcons select Jawaan Taylor out of Florida can someone @ the next user for me. Sorry on my phone.

Logic Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 At pick 15, the Washington Redskins had a few different needs. They really felt like DK Metcalf could help, since Jamison Crowder departed in free agency and recent first round selection Josh Doctson has not had success. They were big fans of Montez Sweat, as Preston Smith departed in free agency and they need pass rusher opposite Ryan Kerrigan. Unfortunately, neither player fell to them. More importantly, though, in spite of their more immediate needs, the Redskins were majorly cognizant of the fact that the most important position in all of football has been a complete albatross for them in recent years. They traded for Alex Smith, but he suffered what may be a career ending injury. They have Case Keenum, but feel that he is likely nothing more than a stopgap. They considered trading up a few times during the draft, fearful that their quarterback of choice would be drafted before they could get to him. Things didn't work out that way, though. As such, Washington wastes little time in turning in their draft card, and believe this pick will have a massive impact on their team for the next 10-15 years. With the 15th pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, the Washington Redskins select QB Daniel Jones, Duke. Washington liked Drew Lock when they met him at the Senior Bowl. They liked his athletic upside. Washington fell in love with Daniel Jones, though, when he came to D.C. for a Top 30 pre-draft visit. The Redskins felt that he was an absolutely perfect fit for Jay Gruden's west coast offense. His tight mechanics, his quick, compact release, and his short and mid range accuracy was too much to pass up. He will compete in training camp with Case Keenum to be the starting quarterback for the 2019 season, and we feel confident that he will turn into the franchise QB we have sorely needed for quite some time.@Golden Goat and his Carolina Panthers are now on the clock. 2

Who were you afraid of taking him after you? I applaud the pick, but seems early and thought he could be had on the back end of the first round. But hey, with a QB, you need to get your guy, so I get it

But more importantly, I've seen a few draft analysts lately stating that the Redskins may not even have the CHANCE to get Jones at 15. I have read of recent serious interest on the part of the Broncos and Dolphins both. Furthermore, I read 10 different Redskins mock drafts, ranging from national analysts to Redskins bloggers, and 5 of them had Daniel Jones as the selection at 15. I believe that the public opinion on Jones has not yet caught up to the reality of how NFL teams feel about him. I will not be surprised if he is the 2nd QB off the board come draft day, ahead of Dwayne Haskins. 1

It would be very funny to see the Giants take D at 6, counting on Jones at 17 only to have a division rival take him 2 picks earlier. 2

Unless the big 3 fall to us, I think people could be fighting to get to our spot at 9. We could make out strong. Not that I want more picks for players, but I would then package them to get multiple 2nd and 3rds. Let’s get some quality starters 3
bkep32 Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 Ian rapoport has been getting phone calls from multiple sources that the Arizona Cardinals have been busy on the phones and trying to find a trade partner to get back into the 1st rnd since pick 12

If the Bills could trade down 5-8 spots, make a pick, then use their two 2nds or whatever to get back into the late 1st for a sliding Hock or Brian Burns or Jonah Williams, that would be sweeeeet.
