Hi everyone! First time poster, long time lurker.
Iv got a couple names I'm watching.
Jordan Whitehead Safety from Pitt. Nice fast, athletic safety. I would love to see us land a star Safety. I really like this guy. Has some character issues so we could get what is a first round talent in another round.
Jerome Baker, OSU's blazing fast OLB. I've seen him listed as a prospect who could go between rounds 2-4 but if he has a great year with how fast he is, I can see his stock skyrocketing and him going on the first round. Also let it be stated I am a Michigan fan, so this isn't coming from a buckeye homer lol.
Two mid-late round offensive linemen I have my eyes on are 1) G, Larry Allen Jr from Harvard and 2) C, Coleman Shelton from Washington.
Both linemen are big, fast linemen. Allen has put on weight last few yrs in prep for the NFL. Little underweight. His father is a HOF, so it's in his blood. Shelton if he stays under the rated will make for a mid-late round steal. He's started everywhere on the line. As I mentioned before both these guys are fast for linemen, so that is a plus with the evolution of run blocking.
A lot of people are expecting Oline in first few rounds. I don't think so though. A lot of fans see it as a huge need. I think if it was as big as a need in the coaching staffs eyes it would of been addressed this offseason but it wasn't. I think that says a lot about the what the staff things. I think they are high on what we have and I'll optimiscally believe in them lol.
A playmaker I have my eyes on in mid rounds is Brandon Powell from Florida. Fast, short under the radar receiver. Just a playmaker to add.
I'm keeping my eyes open for a big late round receiver. We always take one. None have appealed to me yet.
I'm also watching the QBs closely. I'm expecting AJ Mccarrons replacement to come in the third round. Hopefully AJ will be starting somewhere next year as he's in the last year of his contract. Best of luck to him!
