I gave you the reason.....he is running the mock draft, and that takes a bunch of his time. I cannot believe you are this uninformed, WoodMod has nothing but love for us, and you know it. He has nothing but love for some of us Indeed. Indeed he does.

If they never did it in college, doesn't mean they can do it all either. I can't see how constantly changing your scheme to fit players is going to be effective. The bolts didn't have the players to play the PATS they way they needed to. They were destroyed as a result. I sure hope you are not attempting to refute one of my glorious glorious posts. You people should literally be paying me to write. Literally.
I can't explain it any better than I have. ....I'll make one clarification for you, graciously on my part I assure you. Since you and frozen have managed to piss Woodeye off, I suppose I have to fill in a little. Why I am lowering myself to actual work is beyond me. Believe me.
It. Is. The. Staffs. Job. To. Know. Does John Doe have the skill set we need to play the position OUR WAY. Stop right there ! Not frozenmargarita's call, not Wood's call, etc etc. THE STAFF'S CALL. The paid for professional football staff. Don't fall into the traps. The staff knows talent, and how to fit the talent in. Opinion: Both of our Coordinator's are very good at this. Some will say Bradley is better at it. Ok.......
My comment has noting to do with the staff. It had to do with picking a player that hasn't ever played where/how they need. Seemed to me that all the safeties the CMB was touting had the same skills as the current group. The question was somewhat rhetorical. As to how does picking a player with the same skill set as current group going to play different? None of the others could. I never piss anyone off. I'm a mod. Its impossible for us to error. Surely YOU would understand that.

I believe all that is being reported......especially these days, with the media being so astute. I didn't say Rapp was bad, I just said he is 2nd rd talent. If I can't believe what is reported, how can I believe you ?
Per Daniel Jeremiah @movethesticks Twitter 4/1/19 4hrs ago
"Was told Taylor Rapp didn't run very well today (4.74) He's an excellent player but that's going to impact his stock."

I called Rapp a 2nd rd guy.......4.74 might push him to the 3rd rd.

I probably haven't done nearly as much research this year as a lot of you, but I figured I'd take a stab at this. Here's my mock.
1. Christian Wilkins DL Clemson - just have a gut feeling that he'll be a pro bowler someday.
2. Yodny Cajuste OT WV - competition for Tevi plus a possible future LT to start grooming.
3. Benny Snell RB Kentucky - runs extremely hard. Great leader and great competitor.
4. Daylon Mack DT Texas A&M - like his quickness off the snap and the fact that he just plays hard.
5. Joe Giles Harris MLB Duke - much needed depth behind Perryman.
6. Darius West S Kentucky - physical safety who ran a 4.4 40 recently. Had a good senior season.
7. Trace McSorley QB/WR/DB Penn St- just want him in the locker room. Don't think he'll pan out at QB but he reminds me a lot of Edelman coming out of college. Has to be willing to try WR though.

Really like 1. Wilkins. Mack at 4 should be good value. Our DT rotation took a beating in FA.

Like the idea of OL in r 1 or 2. After that I think you'd have as much luck with UDFA's

I like your Mock just for the simple fact that all your picks are "players". What I mean is that they are guys that play hard, are instinctive and are extremely competitive.
I think your first 2 rounds are especially solid and would fill two of our biggest needs.
Your 3rd round pick is a great player but I don't really think we can afford to spend that high of a pick on RB. If he was still available in the 4th then maybe. I really think we need to address MLB, WR, CB or TE in this round.
The 4th would be the same needs as above. I agree we could use more depth at DL but I think we could address it in later rounds. Plus Mack could drop to the 5th.
Your 5th rounder is my favorite pick on your board. Especially in this round. Giles-Harris is my kind of player. High football IQ, a relentless competitor, and one of the best tacklers in the draft.
In the 6th is probably my least favorite. Mainly for the reason that he lacks what I believe if the most important trait a FS should have. Instinctive play making ability. Plus a red flag of having broken the same leg 3 times.
I know I said your 5th round pick was my favorite but in the 7th I love McSorely for all of the reasons you mentioned. That would be a great pick!

I like the first two picks, not the third. I think we are four deep at RB so I wouldn't use a pick on a back, especially a third round pick. I don't think Trace McSorley has a chance as a QB but I like his never give up attitude. I have doubts that he could make the team as a WR, he's only 5'11 and is barely under a 4:6 in the forty.

I like Ekeler and Jackson as well, but I was surprised how much the offense struggled when Melvin Gordon was hurt. There was a significant drop off. That, combined with needing some options in case MG's contract negotiations turn south, and I can see RB being a higher priority position than most people think. |
