The Official 2015 NFL Draft Rounds 2-3 Thread

I'm liking the tape, guys. He looks good. I feel like he might develop with some quality time with Dmac.

He'll never be a FS, too slow and poor coverage skills. He's an in the box SS.

 

[varjao]

I use meters to measure height but 5.11? WTF He's almost on the 4.something

Hey between Jordan Richards, Tavon Wilson and Duron Harmon maybe some **** will stick to the wall finally

 

[unoriginal]

Smart, team captain, good three cone. Three big checkboxes on the BB draft card.

 

[rochrist]

He's not. He's a less athletic Pat Chung. Hopefully he can at least contribute on special teams.

He DID ace the 3 cone though!

@BenVolin: Nawrocki's draft guide on Richards: "Is going to play a long time in the league bc he is so smart. The type of guy Belichick would like"

 

[YOUGOTMOSSED]

Yes! We had an obvious HUGE need for an undersized SS who can't cover or tackle.

I believe Richards can't practice with the Pats during OTAs b/c of academic setup at Stanford

 

[shmessy]

BB's thought on this is: If you draft solely for need, and screw up the pick, then you're out a pick and you still have the need.

Enjoy watching Jordan Devey again this year then.........

 

[Skree]

Haha! Just when I thought all was lost the Colts go and draft a 6th string CB. Thank you, Football Gods!

 

[ausbacker]

He's not. He's a less athletic Pat Chung. Hopefully he can at least contribute on special teams.

Who wants a Special Teams player drafted in the 2nd round? I'd want Richards to contribute as a starter for that price.

 

[Froob]

Any pick that makes people angry is awesome in my book! Hopefully with the next pick they re-draft Tavon.

Tavon's garbage time run up the score pick six in Baltimore made him a great pick in my book.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

Now here comes a run on OL. Great!

We don't need OL..who are you kidding!

 

[Ross12]

I was as confused initially as everyone else, but after review I like him. There's absolutely nothing wrong with grabbing a highly intelligent safety with the last pick in the 2nd round... Would I have taken him? No, but I'm not Bill Belichick. I can absolutely envision McCourty and Richards being a nice tandem if Richards develops.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

He can hit. He laid someone out on Wisconsin a couple of years ago. He can't really cover worth a damn though.

so he hit a guy a couple of years ago - yup, got it. that's worth a second rounder.

 

[sevengables_2207]

I have a feeling Richards will make his presence known on special teams in 2015.

 

[Big-T]

Huh? My take from that highlight video was he was more of a free safety I'm wrong? If he's a hitter I might not mind this pick.

He's a SS and incredibly smart so you can see why they've picked him - even if people hate it

 

[DarrylS]

This fans is the WTF moment we all waited for, tomorrow the scribes will be criticizing the hoodie, Borges has begun to salivate.. Felger immediately went to the bathroom.. but I for one will wait and see...

 

[juny]

Not a fan of picks of guys who will probably fall to you next round

 

[manxman2601]

Are the Patriots playing cover-2 and switching McCourty to CB?
