Green is a good fit.
Orange is a medium fit.
Red is a low fit.

@KCKrow did Matt Lane score other positions as well? DL or WR perhaps?

No idea. He just copied my shit anyhow. Just kidding. :-)

I know he mentioned Demario Douglas out of Liberty a few days ago. I mentioned him a couple of weeks ago or so as a guy Direckshun should check out when he was going all giddy about shifty players.

Not sure who else he's high on. I don't subscribe to his draft guide or whatever it is he calls it.

Pest might know.

No. That's not him "scoring" players. It's basing it off of the type of EDGE that Spags likes. It's just saying whether a player is a fit or not when it comes to height, weight and arm length. I believe he's only drafted one player that wasn't a fit and that was Mike Danna.

Danna worked out just fine.

Eh - I think they'll target tiers. When 31 comes up they'll look at the position tiers and see if there's a standout target left at any of them (vs 3 or 4 similarly situated guys at other positions) and take the guy they think they'll be less able to find a reasonable facsimile for in the 2nd.

They really took need off the board with their moves in FA. RT is the only real problem area now and I think they still have some faith in Niang. DT needs help but I don't see a 1st round possibility sliding to us there.

This may signal another position in round 1 where the depth is not so strong.

It's a risk, though. I think that's how Speaks and Skyy happened.

Now that's not to say I think Moore will have the same impact as Speaks did (none at all) but I think we slow played the position both times banking on depth to bail is out and suddenly in the span of a handful of picks, the depth vanished on us and we ended up taking the last guy in the tier to avoid being shut out entirely.

Ideally you want to be mid-run on stuff like that and it's just not possible from the back of the round unless you're REALLY proactive on trade ups and have a real good feel for how the draft will go.

There's a really good chance I wouldn't risk it.

Speaks is currently in the USFL. He was a 2nd round pick like 5 years ago and is not yet 30. I would certainly hope that they don't risk waiting until there aren't any 2nd round pass rushers available to take one.

Cannot believe how much depth there is in this draft at Edge. After the top guys that extend to early rd 2, you’ve got guys like Tuli Tuipulotu, Tyrus Wheat and Tavius Robinson who all look like capable players with strong traits.

Man. I can really see Veach doing what he did at Corner last year with the DL this year. Would not shock me to see 2 edges and a DT drafted

Maybe take an OT in the 1st, trade up in the 2nd for DE, trade our 3rd for Hopkins.

RD 1 - OT A Harrison, D Jones, or D Wright
RD 2 - [Trade up = 2nd + 4th + CEH] DE Foskey, Adebaware, Tuipulotu, or Carter
RD 3 - [Trade for Hopkins = 3rd + 2024 5th]
RD 4 - DT
RD 4 - N/A
RD 5 - BPA
RD 6 - BPA
RD 6 - BPA
RD 7 - BPA
RD 7 - BPA

What's yall's fascination with Andre Carter? He's maybe a 3rd round guy and that's based on some of his athletic traits. I wouldn't trade up for him in the 2nd by any stretch. I'm saying NO. Don't do it mate.

I'm feeling that the NFL is going to view this edge class differently than the media.

My assumption is:

1. W. Anderson
2. T. Wilson
3. L. VanNess
4. M. Murphy
5. N. Smith (3-4)
6. I. Foskey
7. T. Tuipulotu
8. W. McDonald (3-4)
9. D. Hall
10. F. Anudike-Uzomah

As for K. White and A. Adebawore, I really think you put those guys as 3-4 DEs and not EDGE IMO.

That's my takety take.
