I doubt you will. It wasn't all that much ass, they just took players people didn't expect them to.
Jahdae Barron plays like a healthy, prime, L'Jarius Sneed. He's going to lock the NB position down. They definitely have an outstanding set of CBs now with Surtain and Moss.
RJ Harvey was one of the top 5 RBs in the class. His lone major knock is pass blocking, but he's a 1500 yard RB at 6.5 YPC and 20 catches per year in college. He's going to be featured, and he's going to factor catching the ball out of the backfield, plus he's got 4.40 speed.
I do question the pick of Pat Bryant a bit but he's a good WR and he does fit that slightly larger model that their head dipshit likes. He was productive in the B1G so you can't shit on that too much. I thought Jaylin Noel was probably the 5th best WR in this class and he went as the next WR.
Everyone and their brother on this board wanted Sai'Vion Jones. He's a perfect fit as a 3-4 DE in their scheme. With Zach Allen in the final year of his deal, that pick makes a ton of sense at the bottom of the 3rd.
Que Robinson is a shot in the dark pick in the late 4th, I get that for sure. I don't like it. I would have opted for Bradyn Swinson there. Robinson is just a lump of clay they have to hope they can turn into a player. That's probably a 6th or 7th round guy there. Meh.
After that, they addressed special teams, and it really doesn't matter. Most guys in the 6th and 7th don't make teams so who cares at that point. Lohner, though, that's a Antonio Gates type of shot in the dark. He was a solid basketball player for Utah. That's a PS developmental guy. Don't see the need to draft him but like I said, a late 7th probably isn't making it anyhow.
