NFL Draft rumors until draft day

Oh boy, I think I may be falling for the first round RB trap having just watched that clip. His lateral quickness, vision and home run speed is crazy good (even recognizing those are very limited highlights). Those moves are not just lucky - they’re intuitive with how quickly he deploys them. And he does that 6’0 220?!? I had to look him up after watching that. He looks like smaller back on film the way he moves. 4.39 forty and 40 vert?!? So he’s explosive. And he’s just 20. 3 years of good production (cuts both ways - he’s proven but he’s had some wear on the tread) and can catch the ball. I’m surprised to read his “weaknesses” (https://www.nfl.com/prospects/breece-hall/32004841-4c18-9796-85f0-25933f010ae8).

Good lord I can’t believe I’m going to say this . . . I might be okay with drafting Breece Hall at 23.

lol c’mon man. Just look at CMC, Zeke, CEH, Barkley, etc, all more heralded than Hall as recent examples to NOT draft a RB in the first round.

Trading up in this year's draft, which is deep in two big need positions (edge and WR), and in which we don't have good draft capital, would be the height of folly.

Many draft experts are claiming the difference in edge guys isn't that great, and we might see round two and three guys end up being pretty good.

Breece Hall is a fantastic player.

Is it normal nowdays this lack of communication from a nfl franchise team?
I mean Keim hasn't say a word since our playoff debacle till the meeting with the media at combine, something he couldn't skip
Kliff disappeared also
Bidwill just shaking hands and smiling to our new additions, probably proud after giving big extensions to the gm and head coach..
I follow several sports and its pretty unusual

 

[juza76]

Breece Hall is a fantastic player.

Definitely he is
When u pick late in the draft normally u have a good roster overall and u can spend a pick for a very good rb like Hall
But isnt our case

But we do. You don't win 11 games without good players.

U don't run the football without an adequate line
Or u can't win football games if u can't stop the run and let your opponent eat the clock

Interesting draft stat I just heard from Pat Kirwan...in 2018 34 receivers were drafted. Only 2 of them are with the team that drafted them.

 

[PACardsFan]

Wyatt has character concerns. Been arrested too many time. Many have taken him their big board completely per reports.

Wasn’t aware of that. Thanks for the heads up. Who do you like?

in my OCD driving PFF draft simulation exercises--

the usual pattern is a small trade down in rd 1 presents itself to grab an extra 3rd rounder, and as often as not, West is one of the players picked in the 3rd with the extra pick

Yeah, same.

And if he is only 20 years old, that means he was a real good player at a younger age and he has more growth potential.

How are you feeling if they choose Green over Zion?

Not good.

 

[juza76]

Not good.

What do u expect
They have bad taste about lineman
They even put a better grade toThomas then Wirfs

Green is good too. Could turn out better than Zion. That's draft roulette.

Wirfs is a All-Pro, but Thomas was legitimately good last season.

 

[DVontel]

Green is fine with me. Younger & has played more spots than Zion.

As did most of the 'experts'.

 

[juza76]

If u are fine with Green im fine too
By tape Zion looks more athletic with better feet ready to handle nfl speed
Both are very strong

I watched him tear up my Syracuse Orangemen in the Carrier Dome a couple of years ago. Granted, it was Syracuse, not Alabama. But, he has a canon & is pretty quick for a decent sized man. I wouldn’t bet against him. I’m praying that the Seahawks & Steelers DO NOT end up with him.

 

[PACardsFan]

Draft media is funny.

The "Linderbaum is going to fall because he only has 31 and 1/8" arms" takes are just dumb when Creed Humphrey has *checks notes* 31 and 3/4" arms.

I'm sure that extra 1.5cm in arm length is going to make a world of difference.

Humphrey should have been a top 20 player last year (and I said so pre draft) and so should Linderbaum.

This kid is legit! Whoever drafts him will be very happy!
