[sphinxnole]

1st: Chubb/Nelson, Davenport/Edmunds, Ward/Jackson/Alexander, Ridley/Sutton/Kirk

2nd: Carter/Landry/Key/Burns(Burks Vandy)/Nwosu/Vander Esch/ Warner(LB), Oliver/Hughes/Jackson(CB), Chark/Moore/Greene/St Brown(WR)

3rd/4th: Cruikshank/Hill(CB), Sweat/Turay/Fitts/Holmes/Street/Thomas/Thompson/Young(Edge Rusher), Ateman/Cantrell/Cobbs/Smith(WR)


5th/6th: Stroman/Nickerson/Maddox/Haley/Dawson/Brown (CB), Thomas/Griffin/Jacobs/Kalambayi/Avery(LB), Nnadi/Aruna/Jones/Hill/Shephard(DL)
Lacy/Tate/Valdes-Scantling/Wims(WR)


Just a little research for some to examine, some of the rounds may be off a bit but that’s guesstimates based off of my college football knowledge & potential of the players..
Opinions are like a-holes, everyone has one some are just bigger & stinkier than others...

Hey Sphinx, how do you feel about the hybrids? Fitzpatrick and James...

 

[sphinxnole]

I like them but I don’t know if they have the hips for outside CB’s.
I’m biased about James being a Seminole fan but little known story Minkah almost flipped to
FSU before Signing day so I’ve always liked & followed his career.
Minkah is better in coverage, James is better in and around the line of scrimmage.

I see Minkah as more of the FS/NB coverage guy that will fit the run.
James is the SS/NB more of that big nickel thumper that supports the run & can cover..

Just a matter of what you prefer or need in your defensive backfield.
Think James/Sean Taylor, Fitz/Ed Reed/Mike Brown

Before we drafted Jackson & Amos stepped up I dreamed of Derwin in our backfield as our starting FS/SS
Now I’m torn because we don’t need a Safety per say, but either one would be a playmaker.
I believe we should go Nelson, or Edmunds at 8, but I wouldn’t be upset with Fitz or Derwin...

This is great feedback. Considering how much teams pass these days, having James or Fitzpatrick in a big nickel package would be exciting. I think Fangio could move these guys around and use them to help disguise what he's up to because of their flexibility. I can see James covering big receivers like Jeffery or Benjamin, thumping in the run game, handling TEs and blitzing effectively off the edge. Minkah can do a lot of the same things and probably offers a bit more in outside coverage. I don't see these guys as luxury picks but as the type of weapons teams need in this era of football.

 

[sphinxnole]

They’re definitely versatile defenders bigger versions of the Honeybadger.

I believe Minkah will make more plays on the ball in the air.
James more the enforcer/physical presence.

I honestly think Edmunds could be the next great Bear MLB learning from Trevathan,
Then blitzing or dropping on 3rd downs, with a Landry or Carter & Floyd on 3rd downs,
Talk about confusion on defense, then add a NB with speed, agility & coverage ability in 5th 6th.

Edmunds would be an excellent pick too. I have no issue shooting for that type of ceiling.

 

[playthrough2001]

A start in the draft like this would work for me...

1. James or Fitz - Hybrid
2. Arden Key - Edge
4. T. Smith UCF - WR
4. Orlando Brown Jr. - OT

 

[sphinxnole]

Brown scares me because of his workout, I like Cohen’s old teammate at A & T, Brandon Parker as a swing tackle.

Brown was much improved at his pro day.

 

[sphinxnole]

Hadn’t seen prodays results yet..

They still aren’t awesome measurables but he improved in every category. He played 3 years of really good football at LT in the Big 12. His dad wasn’t a workout warrior either but he was good on Sundays.

 

[sphinxnole]

Check out the WR from Oklahoma Jeff Badet 4.27

LOL, right? Does he have hands?

 

[sphinxnole]

Good question but he sounds like Johnny Knox.
If you can get him in the 5th or 6th take a flyer on Knox 2.0.
About 5 other teams are bringing him in for visits...

 

[WindyCity]

If you made me bet right now.

Nelson is going to fall to us and we are going to pick him.

#allabouttrubisky

 

[sphinxnole]

That’s if he’s available at 8, which he may not be.

#allabouttrubisky

Unless we get a FA to replace Sitton that's what I'm thinking. We either move up for Nelson, he falls to us or we go McGlinchey (there are others I'd take instead but I think the ND connection plays into it).
