Dr.Mantis_Toboggan Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 Beane likes his freaks. Makes sense when you trust that the right coaching staff is in place. Draft the guys with the physical intangibles you can't teach, and rely on your staff to polish them into diamonds.

Bob in STL Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 The need is swing tackle. It’s an important position and he could develop into a starter. Why are so many not seeing it? Most were expecting a C/G. They may have players they like at 5 Thru 7. 1 2

Effective but obviously upgradable. I'm not even trying to hate on Wallace, I think he's a serviceable zone CB for the Bills, but to deny that he's an obvious spot for an upgrade is just hubris.

biggerdaddynj Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) Not going to be absurd and pretend I know anything about him from watching him play at Northern Iowa (not part of my Verizon FIOS package). But, from what I’ve read post-selection and from what the NFLN “analysts” had to say, it seems like a very positive, high ceiling selection. He’s clearly massive, played basketball so he’s athletic to boot and he apparently impressed NFL O Line coaches at the Senior Bowl. Everyone did say he’s a project so as others have noted he is the heir apparent to Daryl Williams (they say he’s a RT). This is another reminder to me that I’ve got to remember to put my trust in the men who are experts at football talent evaluation—though it’s a lot of fun to research as you build up to the draft with the third round over for us and with a clear head, I have to remind myself to trust the guys who turned this organization around ... but I hope their plans include a massive 1 technique DT, a CB2 to build on, a fast WR and some surprises so I can rant until I cool off (45 years of this is a lot for me!).

Process Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 Hard to argue with building the trenches. We desperately needed some speed and athleticism at CB and WR. But I guess next off-season will be about the playmakers.
Milanos Milano Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 When do we get to draft the 7’ 2” WR and tell him to camp in the corner of the end zone lol
Dr.Mantis_Toboggan Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 IDK why so many are doubting that Beane will address CB in some capacity. When has he just threw his hands up and said "oh well, let's hope this is good enough"? Every year he brings in proven vets to compete at spots that didn't get addressed through the draft to his liking, this year will be no different. Also, its not a given that Wallace has plateaued, and Johnson is more than solid in the Nickel role. Levi was a UDFA, Taron 5th round, stop sleeping on the mastermind and... trust the process. 2
