Hopes and Dreams :2018 Draft

[scott99]

I’d like to get an explosive young back. Love Sony Michel. Maybe, at 43?

He’s my favorite. Run, catch, block, he’s great at all 3. Reminds me of Tevin Coleman of the Falcons.

Michel screams NE to me, love his play

I'd like Lewis back and see Burkhead going elsewhere
So Lewis, Michel/Rookie, White, rookie doesn't look too bad

There ya go, pissing me off I'm trying to forget we could have had Coleman instead of Jordan Richards.

We won't get a sniff of him but my oh my what would BB do if he got his hands on piece like this:

We had a top ten RB in Lewis and a great backfield. I wouldn't trade Rivers or Garcia for Hunt.

Reids system is perfect for almost any RB as history has shown. Its about system, opportunity, timing etc. Joe Mixon would have been OROY if he were on KC.

Really, you're telling me that Hunt a guy who rushed for 1,300 yards between the tackles would not have been an upgrade over Burkhead or Gillislee? Heck Blount would have been an upgrade over those guys.

Sometimes BB screws up. He's a genius but he isn't perfect by any means. I'm just not buying what you're selling but you can try selling the iceboxes to the eskimoes up in Alaska if you'd like.

Burkhead was a great signing he was underused this season. when he was used he was very very effective

When/Where did I say that?

Sorry but you make no sense and seem like you just want to whine?

here's my first stab:

Rd1 : DE/DT Maurice Hurst
Rd2a: CB Mike Hughes
Rd2b: DE Arden Key
Rd3: LB Leighton Vander Esch
Rd4: RB Josh Adams

as for QB, I think the same quality is available day 3 as day 2

Arden Key is an interesting one. His draft is going to be on his interview which will determine where he will be selected

It's hedge based on Hurst falling which I believe will happen.....get Hurst, you can take a chance on Key whose top end is the sky and would benefit in a focused environment

Oh I agree completely with what you’ve said. Just one question your third round pick I’ve never heard of? Any info on him? Athletic? Etc?

athletic with the tools to play inside or out......and he can actually cover, size/speed to go with TE and speed to go with RB

 

[jboston19]

Leighton is an older prospect, as well, correct? I think I saw he was 26 but can't seem to find any reference to his age now....

I don't think so. He was in high school in '13, then redshirted in '14.

Sorry about that. I LOVED Coleman in that draft. You can get even more pissed off though, Cardinals picked RB David Johnson at #86, 22 picks after Richards.

I just threw up

On Draft Day I viewed Richards as a major reach but a hard hitter with great communication skills
Probably since he hit the field I view him as deadweight
