Would be good for the 5th round value, but not 3rd I'm not sold on Bernard. If Williams beats him out at WLB then this is good value. We need more youth on our defense and linebackers who can cover is something McD really values. Teams is the bonus not the main purpose imo.

Virgil Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Beane said they were going to play him outside. If that’s true, this pick makes zero sense to me. If he’s not meant to be our starter at MLB, with all the other players available, this sucks 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEBills Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Just now, HappyDays said: Nevermind, Beane said we drafted him to be an OLB and special teamer. I hate it. got to get third round back ups and special teamers at undervalued positions. 4 RB and LB in the third round the last 5 years. Two off the team and two backups 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaaadThingsMan Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I like it. Could be a much needed playmaker around the line of scrimmage. Or a special team demon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 4 minutes ago, Warriorspikes51 said: Fine. But two 3rd round picks in back to back years on LB’s who won’t play is uninspiring We don't really know that yet. The fact that Bernard didn't play much his rookie year tells us a little bit, but hardly the whole story. This regime is notoriously deliberate w/ any rookie. We'll see if Bernard can work his way in more - and it looks like he has a clear shot to do so this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk. Probably not a great take on my part but it's late lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milano was a sensational pick and Edmunds was good. So you should. Not that I know the first thing about Dorian Williams. Generally not doing well (or doing very well for that matter) at picking any particular position is more about sample size, the early or late nature of the picks you've taken and luck than it is about difficulty picking any one particular position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 BBB says he’ll be at OLB for now. This is a head-scratcher for me. Not considered a value pick. At OLB, doesn’t particularly fill a need either. I don’t really see the point here to be honest. BBB also said they thought about trading down, but would have had to move back further than they were comfortable with. My response: Learn to be more comfortable. You can always trade back up after trading down. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who gives a rip if LBers were flying off the board. Stick to your BPA model. Is Williams going to really contribute any more than some special teams snaps? Probably not. You still have special players with high upside in Clark Phillips III and Michael Wilson on the board and a lot of O line that can compete for starting spots like Zavala and D Jones…just underwhelmed that Beane got suckered there. He’s been bad in the 3rd round agreed. I really liked the first 2 rounds. This pick leaves my stomach upset 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s the # 2 traditional MLB imo ahead of Henley and behind Campbell Thanks, I’ll take that as a first good sign regarding someone I know nothing about. Playing MLB at 228lbs sounds like a challenge. What is he like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 He sounds like a good player. I like his description more than Bernard’s last year. That being said, I don’t understand what we’re doing at LB… at all. Bernard was drafted to be the Milano backup and/or 4-3 LB. Now we lose Edmunds, and decide to draft another guy we just admitted will back up Milano. Maybe Bernard is the MLB favorite? Has to be the reason, no?
