Starting to warm to Simmons, but ...

It’s scary how many talented players will be available at our pick.

 

[gimpy]

No, what's scary is if we don't draft one of those talented players.

He covers tight ends ? Nuf said.

To Keim's credit, he drafted the most talented player last year.

are you saying that because you have no faith in Keim to pick the right one?

Don't we all feel that way?

Yet 6th round pick Gardner Minshew had a better year.

Oh boy. Do you remember how dysfunctional our offense was last year?

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

Yes. It’s not like Jax was an offensive dynamo. Actually very similar situations. Questionable OLs, injured, less than stellar WRs.

I’m just saying, Minshew had more TDS, less ints, more passing yards/game, and more wins in only 12 starts with a team drafting directly behind the Cards.

Sorry, don’t want this to turn into another Kyler Murray thread.

I take back what I said. Kyler Murray was the greatest #1 overall pick in the history of the NFL draft. Now we can all be happy and move on to this years draft/team.

Sure.

It’s a damn shame Haskins doesn’t even have the quarter of talent Minshew has.

He isnt gonna hold up in run game IMO pick your poison. 1st thing I do if I'm an OC is run right at him you better pray he isnt on same side of the field as PP very often. Next year the complaint will be we can't stop the run, at all this year work on fixing the trenches then worry about the perimeter which is where Simmons is good. JMO this could all change with what we do in FA but that is really anyone's guess right now.

Simmons not making it to #8.

It's possible he does if.............? 3 QB's are taken, Young, Wirfs, Thomas, & one of Juedy & Lamb are gone after the 7th pick. I still want Derrick Brown but I would be ok with Simmons. Kid is fast & he makes plays. He doesn't make wow hits but he brings his man to the ground. Still may make it to us if 2 QB's are taken & both Juedy & Lamb are gone.

I guarantee you Simmons will go before Jeudy, Lamb, & Wirfs. He also might go before Herbert & Tua.

You may be right? Just throwing out a scenario how it could happen.
My wish list is:
1. Brown
2. Thomas
3. Juedy (if we go defense in FA?)
4. Simmons

Yeah, I remember this entire site was clamoring and screaming to draft Minshew. But no, we had to be stupid and draft Murray.Please.

I think FA will be defense heavy freeing up the draft to fine tune

 

[Jetstream Green]

I am not going to warm to any prospect this draft because my own thoughts have never been in accord with Keim, though I find myself just picking different wrong guys than Keim... I only have one thing which I can control, ticking people off leading to the draft lol

U stand in the same position of 8 months a go then Murray played 16games

you sure are obsessed with Haskins. Other than you, who ever mentions him?
I pointed out how Minshew had a better year than Murray.

Yes, Minshew had a better year than Haskins too. But what relevance is that? The Cardinals drafted Murray.

 

[schutd]

Yet 6th round pick Gardner Minshew had a better year.

LA LA LA LA LA LA IM NOT LISTENING IM NOT LISTENING!!!!!!

 

[Cardsfaninlouky]

I hope so. It has to be fixed. These possibilities are fun to discuss but not one person knows exactly how this will all play out. Bottom line...........whatever we do when FA starts in March, we can then have a better idea of how the #8 pick will be used in the draft. Maybe even the 2nd & 3rd rounds? Depends on how many we actually sign in March?

 

[football karma]

Simmons still hasn't declared, and today (Friday the 17th) is the deadline...……….
