HazletonEagle Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 3 hours ago, vikas83 said: Parsons might be great, but I would never draft a LB at 6. If we are going to take him, we have to trade down into the teens with someone who wants a QB. In the top 10, there is no justification for taking a RB, LB or TE. The incremental value over a replacement level guy isn't enough at those positions. With a premium draft slot, we need a premium player at a high value position. I'd love Sewell, but no way he gets past Cincy. So either take the best WR on the board or trade down. If youre sitting at like pick 20, and youre thinking LB, and getting something like the 3rd LB off the board, most likely youd be right. When youre getting a talent like Parsons in the top 10, then theres a huge gap between him and a replacement level player. Hes worth it. Not sure theres been a TE worth it. And you can make the argument against RBs too. Though I love RBs and Id draft one that high if its an AP, or Saquan Barkley like freak. But the LB position is not the same.

He’s an athletic freak with a wingspan who presents a target, goes up and gets it, boxes out defenders and uses size, height, and reach to dominate. He’s a low 4.5s guy — maybe even a bit more than that. Everyone is running a 4.3 this offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saltpeter Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 You guys think you want a 23 year old top 10 pick until he deals with a nagging injury in year 1 or 2 and then you're writing his obituary when he's 25 and "maxed out." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably easier for them to get under the cap than the Eagles, and they can lower the tagged Marcus Williams number by signing to a deal. Sometimes assigning the cap is a procedural move as part of a handshake agreement before a contract is signed, so the player can not be tagged again at the end of the new deal.

I like to switch it up though because sites have pretty different player rankings. I don't think you can see your picks. The default settings are bad, too. Bengals took Fields in mine.

Really like their simulator and the trades feature. Everything flows so seamlessly. They just updated their rankings today too. Still can't figure out why they have S Paris Ford so low though. Have him ranked around 200 overall, whereas CBS has him ranked around 60. That's quite the spread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't tell if he has DJack speed because he's slightly more built that him so he "looks" slower. He blazes for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RememberTheKoy Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Out on drafting a WR in the 1st whose primary attribute is his speed. We see these burners go in the 1st of the draft every year and never pan out as worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
