Captain_Quint Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 Heard from more than one source that we've been talking to OLB Smiley Redcorn out of Oregon. Possibly a UDFA pick up this weekend. I'm trying to find a link 2

Drew Lock: I’d rather go No. 32 to the right team than No. 1 to a bad team Lock says he wants to go to the right team, and he thinks he might be better off developing with a good team that has a low pick than ending up on a bad team with a high pick. In fact, Lock told Don Banks of Patriots.com that he would love to be Tom Brady‘s understudy. “I’d 100 percent rather go 32nd to the right team than No. 1 to a bad team,’’ Lock said. “If that happened [being drafted by the Patriots], I’d be honored for sure. Tom’s obviously there for a couple more years, but to be able to sit behind a guy like that and learn from one of the best quarterbacks of all time — if not the best — I think that’s an ideal situation for any quarterback.’ Drew Lock: 33rd overall pick drew lock ?

The year they went 12-4 they put a huge investment in O-line. Carr was sacked 51 times last year, and while his comp% went up, his TDs were down. His YPA was actually a career high, but you can't just forget about 2017 when evaluating him either. He was not very good. Seems like a Tannehill situation - His play doesn't dictate his pay. The fact that they can get out of his contract in 2020 with only a 5 mil dead cap number is important. If you like any of the QBs in this draft enough that you want to build around them, you would probably want to go for it. You don't add Trent Brown, Antonio Brown, Tyrell Williams etc unless you are trying to be competitive this year, so the tank for tua method doesn't really work either.

I actually think Haskins is similar to Carr, but he’s better pre-snap and gets the ball out faster. I just think Gruden wants to draft “his guy” and is going to trade Carr

He threw for over 4k yards, 19 TD's, 10 INT's, and completed near 70% of his passes. All this while he had a poor O-line, and his number 1 target was dealt away. I love Josh Allen, but if he somehow produced numbers like this, we'd be giving him the key to the city.

His avg annual salary is 8th in the league at QB, and he's... Tannehill basically. His guarantee after this year goes down to 5 million - its an ideal time to replace him and build something new.

To me, Gruden hasn’t made moves that “make sense” in a vacuum. He’s turning over the team to reflect his vision, one by one. And some of those decisions are financial driven. A new QB that is his and Mayock’s “guy” on a 5 year cost controlled deal is very much on-brand with what we’ve seen thus far Edited April 25, 2019 by YoloinOhio 3

You might be right about the timing to replace, and it's Gruden, so who the hell knows. But I don't think Tannehill is a good comp. The guy isn't nearly as good, and he's always injured. 1 minute ago, YoloinOhio said: To me, Gruden hasn’t made moves that “make sense” in a vacuum.

YoloinOhio Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 This is the 3rd different name projected to ATL if they can move into the top 10 I hope Beane’s phone is charged
Bill from NYC Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 Great post!!! The first link is 100% on the money, and I have been saying this for weeks. There will be 3 receivers coming out of Alabama next season that range from very good to excellent. This is only 1 school mind you. The 2020 draft will be chock full of talent at skill positions, to the point that I hope that we trade down and pick up an extra 1st for next year.
FeelingOnYouboty Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) Murray, Haskins and Jones going in the Top 8 helps us big time EDIT: There's been push back about the Jets going for Oliver at #3. Folks are saying if they stay there which they don't want to do it might be Quinnen Williams. Edited April 25, 2019 by FeelingOnYouboty

I’d rather both 4’s personally because I think day 2 is the strength of this draft. It is just too much of a premium. I think that the other option is a 3&4 from Atlanta for 9. If they have 2 3’s and 3 4’s maybe that’s better ammo to get the 4 picks in the 1st 2 days that I want?
YoloinOhio Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 The #9 spot is looking really valuable right now 1

Yeah, there are ways to balance the value sheet without 74, but none of them feel reasonable to me. I don't think Atlanta wants 4 extra day 3 picks, nor do I think we want to give them all up. 112, 131, 147, and 181 are basically equal with 74 based on the Rich Hill chart. It just doesn't look normal though, feels like paying for a $20 shirt in quarters. 9, 112, 131, 147, & 181 for 14 & 45.

Giants panic and flip with Oakland, take Haskins at 4. Tampa takes White at 5 Raiders, fully flushed with picks, takes the guy Gruden supposedly loves in Lock at 6. Bills give the Jags their 3rd and get Williams at 7. 1
