Jones has a ton of upside, but he's a massive project with tons of technique issues and not a plug and play starter. I wouldn't have an issue with Becton or Jackson at 33, but I don't think they'll be there when it's all said and done.
Andy Dalton was Top 5 in the league in % of passes thrown to receivers with a defender within 1 yard of them. That's because our WR's can't seperate and our WR'S can't seperate because our WR's suck. Most of them are also injury prone and there isn't a #1 or potential #1 among them. I mean, Damion Willis was an opening day starter for crying out loud.
Furthermore, you're panning a value pick in Higgins due to a deep WR class, but advocating reaching for the best T available when it's also deep T class.
If you don't think Phillips and Dye will make it to 3, then why are you complaining that I took Etienne instead of them in my mock,? You may as well complain that I didn't take Isaaih Simmons at 33.
It just seems to me that you have your perceived needs and won't be happy if they aren't filled by a certain round, which is your perogative, but it's not how I entered this sim. I'm not going to sit there like a robot a go "Burrow #1, best available T in 2, best available LB in 3...".
I’d be fine if u took Isaiah Simmons at 33 if he made it there...why?? Cuz that’s a massive need. Running back is not a need at all and higgins although an eventual need does not come
Before drafting a top tackle for this offensive line. It’s not a reach for a tackle. That’s where these tackles are projected to go. Late first early second round. I’d agree on try Adams but the other three are perfect at 33. Josh jones is no longer a project as that was scouting prior to going into this season and he played outstanding all year long. My point on the linebackers maybe not being there in round three are to the fact that they are good players. I do think one of them will be there in three and it’s a massive need. This team has suffered before when drafting small and fast instead of big and strong. We are a soft football team in a stout division. It’s time we get big and physical while Also not ignoring glaring needs instead of investing high picks on shiny toys that don’t solve our immediate problems. Gio Bernard was not worth the pick John Ross was not worth the pick. This is a big mans game let’s go big and also address needs please. There are going to be good offensive lineman available at 33 like there were last year and good linebackers available in round 3 and 4. We need attack those holes before we go Gaga over someone unnecessary such as etienne. I do think wr is a need but I’ll take hodgins in the 4th or 5th all day over higgins in the 2nd from just a purely need and value standpoint. Hodgins has the makings of being a number 1 just like higgins but can be had in the 4th or fifth. Much rather attack tackle and linebacker and still get hodgins than grab higgins and pray we can grab a good tackle and linebacker later. Completely unnecessary.
