2nd & 3rd Round Draft Thread

[WildBB]

Yet another skill-position player.

Fleming seems like a good value, but we have to improve up front on both sides of the ball. Soon.

How about signing CC long term!

I am waiting for this quote from Whiz and Graves:

" He was the top rated player on our board, only 5 slots behind Floyd. We love his passion and physicality from the CB position. We almost took him over Floyd."

Uhh huh.....

As expected, graves, whiz say they didn't want to reach for a need. Fleming was rated too highly to pass up

 

[Cardiac]

Based on needs I want us to draft an OT, OLB and RB at this point, Add a Punter and ILBer and all is good.

Having said all of this I'm still good with us going BPA the rest of the way. Just home some of my perceived needs are addressed.

 

[PJ1]

For everyone who complains we aren't taking an O-lineman and going after BPA I don't want to see you complain about Levi Brown and how we could have had Adrian Peterson.

Do you believe Massie is a reach at 80? Which position is of greater need to the Cards? OT or CB?

Whiz, Graves have mentioned several times how physical Fleming is, how well he tackles in space.

He looks fast and physical. I like. Supposed to be a good cover CB as well.

The punter that was so highly thought of here going in round 3 shows how well informed the posters on ASFN are.

Something similar may have been posted earlier in this thread but I'm too lazy to read through all the posts to find the comments on the kid.

As the OL goes, so goes this team. We don't just need depth at OT, we probably need a legit contributor, not a project. Not gonna get those in the later rounds. I am trying to get behind this pick, but after this round, this realistically is our starting line...

Bridges, Snyder, Sendelin, Colledge, Brown

 

[FrustratedFan04]

The whole draft is a crap shoot. There's a reason Massie and the others are still on the board.

 

[Evil Ash]

Considering our starting CB is coming off a knee injury, I'd say they were about even

I would've taken Massie but I'm not complaining

 

[Mainstreet]

I think the Cardinals do not value the offensive line as much as many fans. IMO, they must feel they can get an average offensive lineman later in the draft that can do the job.

I do like the BPA focus.

Fitz is on it.

I'd be thrilled with "average".

Draft isnt over. What if we use our remaining 5 picks on Olinemen?

Calm down.

If we did that, maybe we'd get 1 good one!

 

[gmabel830]

Didn't like the pick when it was announced, but like every other pick in the history of the organization, took me about 5 minutes to rationalize being excited about it. He was the top rated player on our board, fits our system well, and was slotted right around where we took him (and given the system fit, I'm sure we had him rated much higher).

Still plenty of good picks and good players out there for us to keep getting better tomorrow!

Fleming agrees...The Dolphins reached for Tannehill the newest Miami failure at QB

 

[FrustratedFan04]

Wow, Willie Rolf is still huge and Saints take a guy from canada!

Agree this pick is great insurance for the Toler injury but we don't even have a somewhat productive OT coming off injury. We have Brown and not much else. A much greater need in my opinion.

 

[azfan43]

My thinking on all of this has me sitting nice and easy, not mad at all. Considering that, this past season, we fielded one first-round OT who sucked, and a 6th round OT who sucked, that is the difference between drafting one in 3rd or 4th? Chill out people.

 

[Jetstream Green]

and as many have stated, there is obviously something wrong with Massie for him to still be on the board, something the teams have learned that the draft mags and experts did not have access to

 

[Dayman]

Our starting CB will likely be William Gay. Toler's time in AZ could be limited.

Brown played well at the end of last year.

Syder is an upgrade. Colledge/Sendlein are solid.

We need a RT and depth. If we take 2 OTs in this draft, odds are one of them will be an upgrade over Bridges. Not like those are big shoes to fill.

Im fine with Potter, Reynolds or Datko in the 4th. Good picks. And at this rate, It looks like Massie and Sanders will be there. There has to be something wrong with MAssie.

Medical possibly.

 

[CardsFan88]

Probably don't see Adams returning.
