Give me your ideal first 3 rounds

[staylor26]

1. Adonai Mitchell - it's him or Worthy, but after signing Brown and cutting MVS, more size and a true X would be ideal.

2. Kiran Amegadjie - perfect guy to draft after signing a stop gap like Donovan Smith. This would probably allow Morris to be your replacement for Smith or Thuney.

3. Renardo Green - this feels like a sweet spot to draft Sneed's replacement. Green is underrated and would be a steal here.

Like you, I might take him at 32, but I'm not giving up a 2nd and then some to get up to 16 and grab him.

Might take him at 32 lol?

If he somehow, some way fell to 32 that pick should be in to the commish in 1.3 seconds…IDGAF who’s on the board.

You guys are welcome to your opinions, I have mine. Mine is that there is a significant drop-off between Thomas and the next tier of WRs. My take is that when his routes match the rest, he's going to be special. He isn't going to be there in the late 20s or 32 so we shouldn't talk stupid shit.

My second take is that there is no way in hell a competent LT is there. I have 3 in this draft: Alt, Fautanu, and Fashanu. I don't see any making it past 14. Just calling a spade a spade there. A lot of chances I'd take at RT though. Again, everyone can have their opinions on it. If I'm stuck at 32, I might take a chance on Morgan or Suamataia and hope like hell one could make it at LT, but I have major doubts on both fronts.

I love BTjr and think he’ll be the best WR to come from this class when it’s all said and done so I’m all for moving up for him….

{shrug}

He's my WR4 in this draft but I'm really not that gung-ho about a first round WR.

It was more a statement as to how I'm not married to the position than the player. And as Crow noted - he ain't gonna be there at 32.

"I'm not sold on a WR in the first round" is a HELL of a lot less out there of a take than "Brian Thomas Jr. is going to be better than Harrison, Nabers and Odunze..."

Just sayin'...

Just too much depth.

Agreed.

Mine, based on us standing pat at our picks...

1) Tyler Guyton, OT - Oklahoma
- I really, REALLY want to take one of Mitchell, Franklin, or McConkey here. But, I also really understand the demand to protect the franchise at all costs, as well. Give me a potential future LT here.

2) Devontez Walker, WR - North Carolina
- Tez seems somewhat of a Rice clone physically, but his vertical game would be perfect lined up across from Rice and his ability to work the middle of the field.

3) Trey Benson, RB - Florida State
- I could go any number of directions here, but loading up on offense is the way to go this season. Benson could be a redundant pick with the rugby kid here to allegedly return kicks and MEH returning, but Benson does have a good combo of size, power and speed. I wouldn't be against a tight end with this pick, even if I'm good with Kelce, Gray, and Irv Smith as our group.

Not liking ignoring WR again but I love Benson. And Pacheco backup is a sneaky bigger need than most want to acknowledge.

Drafting a WR in the 2nd for the second year in a row is "ignoring WR again"?

I'm not going to go back and forth with you in this thread, but this is exactly why people are so over your shit.

I was thinking of doing a mock yesterday and I had Guyton and Walker in mind 1/2. Both really high ceilings guys.

Walker’s drops scare me though

Like I said, if one of those three is sitting there at our pick, it's going to be really hard to pass them up. It becomes a matter of if they think Guyton has more value at his position than one of those three, obviously.

I feel like with Hollywood signed that receiver may not be the call in the 1st. Tackle and receiver will be our first two picks, maybe not in that order, but I feel confident thinking that way.

I like that a lot and would be considering/interesting in moving up in round 4 to grab Jermaine Burton at WR, too.

I know he's kind of a shithead, but the talent and profile would fit so well.

It depends what your goal is.

If you just want to check a box and say you took a WR, even after 10 other teams took one then sure, the position was addressed.

Of course you are upset because you get very emotional and have a hard time arguing your views with fact and logic.

Giving you my first 3 picks since I'm trading away the 2nd rounder.

Going against all I believe in to get Pat a "hyper-elite" weapon.

KCCROW if you move up to 16, my GOD then you have to weigh the choice between Brian Thomas Jr. or JC Latham or Troy Fautanu. IF those are your options at that 16 pick, who do you take? That would be some very serious options!
