I like this a lot.

First round OT.
Second round QB falls into our lap.
And Paris Ford and Charles Snowden are just good football players.

Obviously would hope we added some LB and WR help via free agency. But this draft feels good to me.

QBs are always drafted too high. No way Jones lasts until 19 in the second round. I wish this would happen, but I don’t see it.

Yeah I agree. Depending on how we address QB before the draft, I could easily see us pulling the trigger on Jones if he is still there in the first round.

I go back and forth on Jones. I could see him being great (he feels like a Drew Brees -- not off the charts in physical ability, but smart as hell, and runs the system to perfection). And I could see him being a big teaset (a la Kirk Cousins - lotsa stats, but never breaking through when it counts)

Getting him in the second round? I think he's a solid pick.

But in the first? Who knows ...

It’s definitely going to be interesting.

The real question is whether he is there at #19 in the first round. LOL.

IMO that would be an excellent draft. Good job!

Darrisaw or JOK in the first round is my vote. If Jones somehow fell into the bottom of the first round (don’t think this will happen realistically) how would you feel about trading back up into the 1st round to get him. Our 2nd and a late round pick may do it. Is that considered a value pick? Maybe not, but it’s definitely intriguing. Just like QBs are over drafted every year, there are always reached and players they fall unexpectedly in the draft every year.

Honestly? If Mac Jones was around at 19 in the first round, I would almost prefer trading back so the Saints or somebody could draft him at 19 ... which I think would happen. I mean, I just don't see him falling to the second round at all.

Get a later first, and another second ...

With that plan you have to get someone in FA though. I agree there zero chance he falls to the second, and unlikely he falls even to 19, or lower in the 1st, but I just thought it was an interesting scenario. Something crazy like that always happens every year during the draft.

Yeah .. that's true. I shoulda stipulated that. I guess I assume that will happen.


I like Jones, and hell, he could become a bad ass. And if we have a chance at him, and pass, and he blows up, well ... that'll suck.

But I think adding a second round pick would allow us to do something like OT first round, S second round, LB second round ... with two 3rd round picks to grab WR, and BPA ..... setting us up nicely for the future.

I do like this pick at #19, assuming they address the QB position and add a #2 WR prior to the draft.

LT - Christian Darrisaw
LG - Saahdiq Charles
C - Chase Roullier
RG - Brandon Scherff
RT - Morgan Moses

I don't know the answer to this, but I wonder what RR and others think of Charles starting at LT? Worst case scenario, you have really solid depth at T if you take a LT in 1st 2 rounds, and could always move Charles to RT in time. Darrisaw, I'm no pro scout, but I don't love his foot speed. Seems very inconsistent in technique and often caught in bad leverage situations. Smells like a guy that might get stuck at G or RT rather than being cornerstone LT.
All I can say is, I hope we do something at LT with one of our first 4 picks and shore the position up, and it wouldn't break my heart to get another RT as well. I think Moses looks MUCH more mortal without Scherff to his left.

However, I could see FO thinking Charles will progress, and going WR, CB, and LB with many early picks, and also perhaps a true burner roving FS. I would not be surprised at all if we didn't draft any OL early. Obviously depends how board falls.
