OK. Phew.  Draft is shaping up.  

 

Clearly they liked Kroft at least as the third best TE in the draft. 

 

They took Dawson. Curious to hear about if they liked Hicks more, but Dawson makes so much sense because of Burfict being here.  Guy pops on film in a way that few others do.  Very excited about that one.

Great pick if he stays out of trouble

 

He wasn't an off field risk. Questions were about his football fire.  Not great, unless you saw him play on the field. IMO the exact same story as burfict, a guy who was odds with his coaching staff too and they slammed him.  

 

Positive side, Marvin knew how to take a guy like that and help him become his ideal self.  Also, Burfict is here so he has the model.  Burfict is a film freak, and will take this boy under his wing.  Love it.

Draft talk has been really subpar around here this year, but...

 

For those of us that have been regularly discussing, in hindsight, in the first three rounds we landed three of the four guys that many of us had listed as a top guy at their slots in our mocks.  The Cedric pick still throws me for a loop (imagine if we traded back and got a third AND added him along with Grady Jarrett and everyone else we got), but we got

 

Two franchise tackles.

A playmaking LB that was the #1 guy in the country according to many (mike Mayock included)

A TE that has all-around skills.

 

Not terrible. 


I like that he's good in coverage. Cant be worse than Lamur

 

Despite his lack of timed speed, he's considered one of the best pass covering LB's in this draft.
