Draft Day - 3

[Dieter the Brock]

Cody Wichmann

 

[Dieter the Brock]

Every pick OFFENSE

 

[ZigZagRam]

7 picks on offense! 4 offensive linemen!

 

[ReddingRam]

Definitely can't fault them for addressing the Offense and particularly the OL ...

 

[DR RAM]

I didn't scout this player. From NFL.COM
Strengths
Thick and strong with a frame to hold up against power players. Duck-footed drive blocker after impact. Has enough power to generate push as base blocker and can jolt edge when pulling in short areas. Plus anchor. Held up against Leonard Williams early in 2014. Sees twists coming and can catch twister. Has radar to land his down block in sweet spot and seal off defender.
Weaknesses
Average initial quickness and below-average athlete. Can handle himself in small spaces, but struggles when asked to leave his property and block in space. Will likely miss his mark if block isn't on schedule and he's asked to adjust to a sudden change of direction.
Draft Projection
Round 6 or 7
Bottom Line
Durable, NFL-caliber build with average to below-average feet, but above-average strength and anchor. Wichmann will be limited by his lack of athleticism and will need to find a home in a power-blocking scheme that allows him to live in a phone booth and maul his opposition.

Another road grater.

I look forward to the competition. Hopefully some rise above the rest.

 

[ReddingRam]

Shot gun aproach definitely ... BUT .... the WILL find their guys this way

Hey, that's us!

I know what positional group I'll be focusing on in camp this year.

 

[SteezyEndo]

I think they definitely picked this guy to block for runs. He is fast for his size...

 

[Mr. Walker]

Lets snag a C in the 7th. Just to make a day of it. Seems like that would be a fitting ending.

 

[Athos]

Did say I wanted an all offensive draft.

Wish we'd gotten Smelter too though.

But Sasser will be ready Day 1 and be a better target than Givens.

He's a bit like Pettis though.

 

[Athos]

lmao at Hundley going in the 6th though.

Not quite what he envisioned is it?

more reps than andrew donnal. i know, i know, but still. maybe sasser will stay in and block while donnal is tackle eligible.

Stacy traded to the Jets for a 7th this year

 

[WestCoastRam]

STacy ttraded!! 7th rounder in this draft. Better than I thought. (Not because Stacy's bad, just didn't think that there was leverage for getting a pick!)

 

[ReddingRam]

So ... the "token"defensive player lol LB - Bryce Hager - Baylor

 

[ZigZagRam]

I was wrong. We got a 7th for Stacy.

Be careful what you wish for Zac.

Lol at the guys that wanted to draft hundley at 10! The guy just isnt very good. He is in the best situation for him though because he will never play.

I'd say he may have a shot holding the clipboard for Rodgers provided he stays with the team. Few better to learn from, especially a mobile guy like Hundley and a mobile guy like Rodgers.

 

[rickrawk]

second "token" defensive player.
