Post Draft Thoughts

I liked every pic except Love. I hoped they would have taken Samia (G) or Ridley (WR)

We’re STACKED at RB and could use more G and WR help.

Why take him when we have Peterson, Guice, CT, and Perine????

Don't get me wrong, I really like Love (seen him play out here a few times, and he can take over games). But with Sumia available and given our needs, that would have been my preference. I also wonder whether Love might have been there at the next pick (we'll never know, of course).

But overall, I am pretty pleased with the draft. We won't know if it was good for a couple of years, really, but these decisions are surely defensible based on the information we now know. A few teams in our division -- NYG and DAL -- can't really say that, IMHO.

The Love pick was a great pick, he’ll come back strong after rehab even if it’s next year, AP is a year older and on the downside. Martin will probably win the LG position (watch the youtube video and decide for yourself) the Bama center is a solid player. Overall, a fantastic draft!

Great draft overall with one major miscue.
Skins passed up a 5 year starter at left guard.
It was a no brainier to pick Samia, (or Michael Jordan)
It was a top 3 draft need. I understand if they stuck to the board but bypassing this and crossing your fingers on a possible backup future rb was a mistake. To me the 2 4th rounders is the difference between a B and an A in my mind.

PS. If we are counting on either of our 2 online picks to start, we are still in a bit trouble. Depth? Sure. Start immediately? Iffy and not recommended. Samia and Michael Jordan were rated far superior. Not to mention we could have gotten both Samia and the bama free safety in the 4th. Both would be considered likely/possible starters immediately and considered steals AND major needs

I was just hoping for a 3rd round (which turned into 2 4th round) starters I find it doubtful that either of our 4ths start based on who they picked. We chose potential over a sure thing guard and a potential starting safety. It's a shame we passed on such a gift

Pierschbacher could start at LG immediately.

Pierschbacher could start at LG immediately.

or RG in 2020.... there is no guarantee Scherff will be signed

Great draft. Would have liked to seen them take Jordan from OSU instead of Martin from IU, and also Gerald Willis in the 7th would have been superb. Anyway a ton left to be determined on the field and given our more than recent track record I really cannot get too excited until it translates to W’s (like more than 6-8 a year).

Peterson is on his very last leg, CT is always hurt and was not productive even when healthy last year, Guice has never taken a snap, and Perine is meh. Not the worst pick in the world even though he probably would have been there later.

I liked the Love pick because AP will only be here one more year. Guice is coming off an injury. CT is always hurt and obviously they think little of Perine. Love could be your #2 back in a year.

That's why this draft was so good, our "worst" pick is really not a bad pick and even liked by half of us. We crushed this draft.

If Peterson stays healthy, we are golden at RB. That's not counting on anything from Guice or Love, while expecting Thompson to miss a handful of games.
