I feel like we are having a B-/C+ type draft... I'm thinking/hoping none of these guys are terrible and think we are filling holes, but would be surprised if any of these guys was a Badger/Ellington in terms of impact.

Staying with the physical theme. Good solid selection. Needs to add some weight but has the frame to. Good all around game. Plays run well and can rush some.

I really liked Critchton, but this guy isn't far off and fits DE better in our scheme with his height, 6'6"

OR....

They are using 3rd round picks on players who will be in for about 15 to 20% of the snaps because the other players stay healthy.

They don't have any glaring weak spots where they are going to be drafting starters from here on out. What the hell else are they going to draft besides depth?

Possesses very intriguing dimensions for a rush OLB role in a traditional, two-gapping, 3-4 alignment and showed he is athletic enough to handle it at his pro day.

Found that interesting.

Sounds like a calais clone. called out his football smarts too, I like that.

I think Deone might be...I'm seeing ADUB2.0 dreams.

If Deone can effectively cover TEs, then I think he might be the one from this group so far. If not, I think he'll end up getting some highlights but being an overall liability. Nikklas will fill his role well (solid but not flashy) and Martin will be a decent situational player.

Not sure about Philly's picks. Huff could be OK, but I don't think other teams were looking at him before the fifth round. Marcus Smith was a 2nd-3rd rounder picked in the 1st.

I would love to double down on Martin and draft Will Clarke but I am guessing we will be adding a CB or WR...Dri Archer could also be an option.

Bruce Ellington
Dri Archer
Trai Turner
will Clarke
Pierre Desir
Jaylen Watkins
Phillip Gaines

dark horse...Carl Bradford...James Gayle
