KNEEJERK CENTRAL: Who Won the Draft???

[Merlin]

Been looking through the list and I have seen the future my Rams brothers. I am ready to declare winners in spite of decades of evidence to the contrary regarding kneejerk draft reactions. Here we go WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

1. Jacksonville Jaguars. Ridiculous haul for one draft IMO. They got a QB of the future who fits their scheme in Trevor Lawrence. They got a stud RB in Etienne who will help them immediately. Potential LT of the future in Little who can give them starts on the interior if necessary. And a scattering of guys I liked at multiple positions. This draft has the look of the type that can catapult a team from the cellar to the playoffs. Might be a year out from that of course but still, what a haul.

2. Tennessee Titans. These guys really outdid themselves IMO. The Farley pick is risky IMO but has boom potential. Then they got two stud starters who are going to log a ton of starts for them in Radunz and Weaver. In the slot they added Molden, as well as Fitzpatrick. Not a Monty Rice fan but this is a class that they're gonna feel in a good way come camp.

3. Minnesota Vikings. They just had the kind of draft that can put them back in play in the NFC contender picture. It's that good IMO. OT Darrisaw is an absolute stud. Davis is a nice interior addition to the OL. Jones will be a nice add to their edge rotation. ISM is one of the receivers I really liked this year and they got him late with great value. Surratt gives them instant help in either a chase role or on the interior on third down or nickelbacker type role and has upside to be something IF he can develop some physicality. And they took a shot on Kellen Mond for QB of the future. Fantastic draft for them.

4. Baltimore Ravens. What else is new. Bateman is a huge improvement for them at wideout. Oweh gives them a badly needed young stud edge. I love Cleveland nice fit for them on the OL. Stephens is a big physical corner that fits their bully defense. I love Wallace as a round 4 project wideout. And they got a nice role player late in Mason for some fullback action.

Minnesota, IMO.

Slick Rick is the kind of GM Sneed wishes he could be. His wheeling and dealing and trading back always seems to work out. Love how he lets the draft come to him, rather than chase.

Jacksonville and Baltimore nailed their drafts. The may smoke a cigarette and leave a nice tip after they are done today.

Panthers. Easily the Panthers. They got a great cornerback (Horn) and a steal of a defensive tackle (Nixon), but they did a lot of work on their offense as well to both protect Darnold and give him weapons. Marshall, Shi Smith, and Tremble should be an amazing group of weapons, they drafted a decent running back (Hubbard) to spell McCaffrey (fatigue or injury), and really upgraded their offensive line with Christiansen and Deonte Brown.

Hell of a draft. All they need is Darnold to live up to the third overall selection.

 

[Corbin]

I'd have to say I like what the Broncos did for their team and built off of what they did last year. I'm intrigued if they are able to get Aaron Rodgers after the draft because if they do that it makes them a serious playoff contender.

Minnesota, IMO.

Snead is a beast..

Although I'm not to sure about our 2nd round pick this year I think you meant " Slick Rick wishes he could trade like Snead"

Oh and the Titans get style points for taking Radunz right in front of the Colts' faces. Shitting on a division rival has to feel good lol.

And yet the Vikings are in and out of the playoff picture every year, and "Slick Rick" signed Cousins to those respective contracts instead of biting the bullet and finding an actually good quarterback.

I love what the Browns did as well this offseason but also what they did to compliment themselves in the draft.

They basically have an all-star team and I pray they make some noise in the AFC North.

Yeah that division will be fun to watch this year. Bengals might make some noise too. Steelers had a pretty nice draft as well I think.

I sort of like Dallas so far;

Round 1 (No. 12 overall, from 49ers through Dolphins and Eagles) - Micah Parsons, LB, Penn State

Round 2 (44) - Kelvin Joseph, CB, Kentucky

Round 3 (75) - Osa Odighizuwa, DT, UCLA

Round 3 (84, from Colts through Eagles) - Chauncey Golston, DE, Iowa

Round 3 (99, compensatory) - Nahshon Wright, CB, Oregon State

Round 4 (115) - Jabril Cox, LB, LSU

Round 4 (138, compensatory) - Josh Ball, OT, Marshall

Round 5 (179, compensatory) - Simi Fehoko, WR, Stanford

Round 6 (192, from Lions) - Quinton Bohanna, DT, Kentucky

That is just something that should never, and I mean NEVER be said by a Rams fan. :watch:

 

[den-the-coach]

The Los Angeles Chargers....Like or not, they're coming!

 

[Mojo Ram]

Buffalo has had a nice offseason to get them over the hump and into a Super Bowl IMO.
Number one, they need to improve on defense and also add weapons to help Diggs.

FA
Resigned key OL and LB Milano. Brought in Emanuel Sanders and now have one of the best backup QB's in the league in Trubisky. Added quality depth with Matt Brieda to the RB room.

Draft
Added a couple pass rushers in rds 1 & 2 in Rousseau and Basham. Drafted some speed at WR.

You're one of the only ones, Cowboys fans I've read hate every pick.

 

[OldSchool]

Cleveland did well the whole AFCN aside from the Steelers IMO.
The NFCN did well.
Carolina and Jax did well.
I don't like a lot of what our division rivals did.

I'm not a fan of our first pick but we took a lot of upside guys just a few have a very colorful injury history.

The whole NFC West drafted pretty poorly according to that chart

I don't think the Jaguars needed to draft a RB that early Robinson had almost 1100 yards in just 14 games last year

It's all subjective. The Niners didn't take Jones but Lance has his question marks. Banks is a beast but not sure he really fits the Shanny blocking scheme. Sermon is good just has an injury history. Ambry Thomas was one of my favorite CB in the draft he's a good CB and a monster in the return game. Moore is an athletic monster of an OL he's crazy athletic but he's a bit smaller and needs work it's an all upside pick IMO. The rest I don't know much about tbh.

Seattle was a bizarre draft but they always seem to be. AZ I thought hit a couple home runs and had a few head scratchers to me. All just my amateur opinion.
