Anyone care to talk NFL draft?

I hope the Browns trade down. This is a great draft to fill out a roster. We're lacking in middle class players, if you will, third and fourth rounders who have potential. We've been busting on third and fourth round picks for so long. Definition of insanity...hoping the Browns suddenly learn how to draft without changing anything.

I'd be happy with a second rounder from NY Giants to move down one spot and give up Shedeur if they want him. I'd move down to nine and trade with N.O. for a future first. Every player in the top ten has question marks. The first sure player that I see is Ty Warren. He's a beast.

My sleepers

I think that Ozzy Trapilo is a wide zone sleeper. When I finally watched highlights of him I couldn't believe how athletic he was. He got to the second level pretty quick. He has some things to clean up once he gets to the second level, for sure, but you wouldn't think that a guy that is 6'8" could move like that. 33" arms. Should be good.

I wonder why Will Campbell, with 32 5/8 arms is considered a prospect that will need to move into guard, yet Taliese Fuaga, who was drafted by the Saints last year at the 14 spot, has 331/8 inch arms and is considered a tackle who was successful at the next level. Does a half inch arm length really make that much of a difference?

Kyle McCord, and don't fall asleep on Quin Ewers.

Collin Schlee -- I love this guy as a undrafted free agent. A super sleeper.

OT Wyatt Milum-- 32" arms, but graded 90 for zone blocking, second only to Charles Grant, who graded 95.

All these DTs
T.J. Sanders could be a first rounder.
J.J. Pegues (if he falls, a mid round value)
Rylie Mills
Vernon Broughton (should be a day two guy)
Ty Hamilton (good rotational player)
Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins (intriguing late round beast).

LB, I like Nick Martin out of Oklahoma State.

CB Zah Frazier -UTSA

Dorian Strong CB Virginia Tech

S Billy Bowman -Oklahoma The only knock on Him is his height.

S Dante Trader Jr.-- Maryland

OG Clay Webb - Jacksonville State (Grades out at mid eighties for zone blocking) I think he'll be every bit as good as Jared Wilson at center, if he's drafted by a wide zone team.

OT Jack Nelson Wisconsin At the very least, solid depth. Graded mid eighties for zone blocking. That really surprised me.

Benjamin Yurosek TE Georgia

Luke Lachey TE Iowa

Thomas Fidone TE Nebraska

Tory Horton WR Colorado State

Bhayshul Tuten RB Virginia Tech -- If he can fix the fumbling, he's first round talent.

Kyle Monangai RB Rutgers -- Poor mans Quinshon Judkins with slightly better vision. I like this guy a lot. He should fall because he ran a 4.6 - 40.

Cameron Skattebo RB Arizona State -- He's not a secret anymore, but I still think that he is very under rated.

That's all I can think of right now. Here's some good reads that I came across recently.

Personally, I've been contemplating going to spring training camp for either the Giants or the Titans. I figure I can play as well as some of those jamokes ;). Starting salary is almost $800k 😎 and I figure I can get knocked around and knock back as well as guys on either team, even though I'm 66 🤨. I won't be in the draft but look for me in the sports reports ;). If any of you still have any athletic ability, consider joining me.


But I got dibs on middle linebacker.

Didn't they make a movie about a walk on that was signed to an NFL contract played by Mark Walburg? Philly, I believe. He was a little younger that 66, though. ;) The Browns just went to Youngstown state university to scout. If you can play, they will find you. The Browns found Joshua Cribbs at Kent State, QB to special teams ace and the best kick returner that I've ever seen. I wonder how those people get jobs collecting loose footballs during practice. I could do that.
 
As I'm watching Kaleb Johnson, I can't help but feel like he's a beneficiary of a good offensive line. Iowa's LT Mason Richman, who didn't get an invite to the combine, was somebody that I was intrigued by. You can't get film on these guys unless you watch Kaleb Johnson highlights, or Ohio state vs. Iowa this this past year. Better Iowa vs. Michigan last year in the big ten championship. Mason Richman and Connor Colby, both could be really good, especially in a wide zone scheme.

Yep. Vince Papale; age 30 y.o. Super Bowl QB Curt Warner was also not a draft pick! Neither were QB Warren Moon, WR Drew Pearson, Hog Joe Jacoby, LB London Fletcher and a a host of others. I'm not looking to make a bowl, just a few bucks. My brothers and I (we're all big guys) talked about helping out the 'Skins but it looks like they've turned themselves around so maybe I can share my posterity with another bunch of losers 😊.

I'm a Dolphin fan, so, maybe I can talk the coach into letting me play QB? At least in the postseason? :cool:
 
It would be a dream come true if Miami drafted Riley Leonard from Notre Dame's QB. Highly doubt it, though.

Well, at 8 and 9 that might be something he'd consider. :unsure:

I like Riley Leonard. I liked him more before he threw up after scoring ND's first touchdown against Ohio State. Was that just a fluke, or did the pressure get to him?

I personally like Aidan O'Connell. I wish the Browns would go after Him. It seems like the Raiders have moved on from him and if they bring in another young QB, it could get toxic. Geno Smith is their guy for now. A team could probably get Aidan for a mid or late round pick. Especially if the Raiders pick a QB in the first two rounds. I think Aiden is still a much better prospect than Shedeur Sanders is, and much cheaper. He has the same arm and two years experience in the NFL.

I remember when Donovan McNabb threw up during the super bowl Super Bowl XXXIX. It happens. Sometimes we forget these are just kids coming out of college. Still, when these teams spend the money that they do, these things matter. McNabb still had a pretty good career. I could have been a combination of things.

I think Riley is going to go higher than expected.

I like Riley also, I wish him luck.
 
I'm adding WR Antwane Wells Jr. to the list of sleepers. He only ran a 4.6 40, but so did Jerry Rice. Kids got juice. I guess that's why they call him by the same name. ;) Watch highlights of this guy and you can see he just oozes sleeper. He's got all the things that you want to see that the measurables don't measure.

The Belichick recipe, "I just know it when I see it".
