SF owned the Draft.




I don't remember any names for sure, but I think every player they drafted is a legitimate badass.

Eric Reid is a name you should know. But you're right, he's a legit badass.

I really the the 4th for Chris Ivory, there wasn't a back in the 4th who could give as much as Ivory. The Sheldon Richardson pick was very surprising considering the Jets' have 2 upper tier bookends on their 3 man line, but excited to see how he will be used.


Ivory runs the ball with authority, I'm sure y'all will appreciate that. The thing is, I think they'll have to be careful with the amount of carries he gets because he tends to get hurt a lot. Sheldon Richardson seems like a scheme versatile guy who should find a nitch on the Jets D-line with his quickness.

Denard Robinson as a RB is kind of WTF for me

Fortunately, the Jets have decent backups in Mike Goodson and Bilal Powell. Goodson has the speed and catching ability, while Powell is more of a plain back, but the abilities to catch and block. Joe McKnight is just out of luck at RB, he never has been given much of a chance. Still a great KR though, when he can secure it.

Richardson just took everyone by surprise, considering what was there. I was a fan of his and likened him to Fletcher Cox, but didn't expect him to wind up in the green and white. Though the fun creeps in about if more 43 is gonna be used or if Richardson will be used as a shade NG, like in a Bum Phillips' 1 gap 34. No plugging, just frick shite up in the gap.

T.J. Moe will make the team and someone who has been in a coma for a year will wake up, watch an early-season Pats game, and ask why Wes Welker is wearing one of the Stooges name on his back.

No, I mean I don't remember if they drafted someone that isn't a badass. I know they drafted Reid, Tank, Lemonier, and Dial. Oh, and Lattimore.

Gotcha.

Yeah, Frisco is going to be formidable in the west and seattle seems like they are stacked up too. I didn't pay attention to seattle's draft tho.

I really want to see how Nick Moody does on SF (sorry if I sound like a broken record). His hitting power is unreal.

Dude's a playmaker and we need some. He'll also contribute on special teams. I'm glad we didn't go for a QB and picked up 3 starters that we desperately needed.

I liked the pick, actually. Jax had an awful offense. It helps to bring on a player who allows you to diversify your offense (misdirection, sweeps, etc.)

Love the Jones pick at 17, he fits well with what they do. I'm rooting for my man, Le'Veon Bell, to get it done for Pittsburgh as well

1. Desmond Trufant - B+
- great corner; fills our biggest hole. Will be a day one starter

2. Robert Alford - A
- GREAT value pick. Adds depth and a quality return guy. Love this pick

4. Malliciah Goodman - C+
- Just think he isn't consistently good. Had a great game against LSU but was pretty "meh" overall in his career

4. Levine Toilolo - B+
- Huge and great blocking tight end. Was the starter over Ertz and Fleener before he got hurt which says a lot. Still not 100% but he will have a year to work under Tony G. Should develop as a solid TE. He won't be Tony G but he has potential to be a top 10 to top 5 TE in the league.

5. Stansly Maponga - A-
- Great value at a position of need. Will be right DE and could find his way into starting some this year. I think this is a steal

7. Kemal Ishmael - C-
- Okay pick for depth. That's all I've got

7. Zeke Motta - C+
- Could potentially play linebacker. Good for depth at safety. Seems to be a bit underrated but we will see.

7. Sean Renfree - C-
- Mayock loves this guy. Will be competing for the third QB spot. Could develop nicely and be trade bait down the line.

Overall I'd give us a B+. Would've liked to have gone DE in the second round but I love Alford the more I see and read of him.

GOTTA BELIEVE!

I think these guys have as much a chance, if not more, as any to pick up the offense because they both were one of the smarter WRs in the class

Im thinking both of these guys were heavily influenced by Josh McDainels. While everything else he did as a HC was shite, drafting at WR was not (Decker, Thomas)

Speed, Size, Youth. Been begging for that for years. Im excited

Marshall WRs do well in foxborough. Troy Brown, Randy Moss, And next in line is Aaron Dobson


Im high off my koolaid drinking...but really i cant wait til we hit training camp to see if these guys can contribute this season

When i saw they signed him i was like "here we go, Wes Welker Jr"
