But yeah, I don't want to have him running the OL for 16 games, making all the calls and such when I can potentially have an all pro there. |

Dj doesn't like him but I'd probably take Thornhill if a similar situation worked out and they're dead set against taking a C.

He got buried because of a veteran preference and the fact that he was our last line of defense because the S alongside him was also overmatched in that particular role (Sorensen/Murray). So Sutton, rightly or wrongly (likely wrongly) was unwilling to shepherd him through his inevitable young player learning curve. But he flashed the skills to be, at worst, adequate in a pure FS role alongside a credible multi-purpose safety. Especially if he's not also being asked to cover for Scandrick. Things couldn't have been set up any worse for Lucas and we still saw flashes of a guy who deserved a longer look than he got. Moreover, I'm not willing to bury Watts - he's still the same ballhawk who many of us thought we got a steal on in last year's draft.

I’m not particularly fond of a C in the first. I think they want to trade up for a pass rusher, but man I’m thinking they want a new C soon and that’s not Reiter. I am very confident that they will draft one, most likely in rd 2.

Well if they sign Brett Jones....then we shouldn't have to worry about taking a center at 29.

He's more of the same, IMO. He....exists. That's why I wouldn't sign a guy like him until after the draft. I don't think he fundamentally alters anything with this team but if you spend cap space on him, it may convince you that he does and talk you into doing a thing that doesn't make sense long-term.

Dude, I turned in my pick like 12 hours ago. There's been picks made after me.

It wasn't any different with him than it was with the rest of the crew. They had their ups and downs all year. There wasn't any significant drop-off with him in the lineup. They put up 51 on Aaron Donald and the Rams for crying out loud. |

The whole safety unit struggled, including Lucas, and he flashed so much they refused to use him.
I get that people want to upgrade at C. I don't necessarily have a problem with it. I don't think it's a bigger need than the secondary though. |

I agree with your statement but my reason for taking Bradburry in this situation is because he's got the chance to be an elite center. I don't know that any of the safeties available to Dj in this mock do. |
