DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official 2018 Draft Round 1 Thread

[Wilfork#75]

Great pick for the Falcons. Ridley is a steal

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Ridley to Atlanta...wow

 

[fightingirish595]

WOW!

 

[manxman2601]

How many murders for this guy?

Not as many as Ray Lewis.

 

[VJCPatriot]

Brace yourself for the trade down at pick 31!

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Can wynn cover and rush the passer? It's still a baffling pick. He might have been able to get him at 31. Again he was waiting on Evans to fall to his lap.

 

[trueblue81]

3 more picks man.

3 more picks.... doesn't make this a good pick. Defence is priority. Offence always sorts itself out. I do not like this first pick. Would have rather kept Crooks.

 

[Joker]

Out of curiosity what are negatives? Most mocks I read had him going late 2nd early 3rd?

Jackson could go to Pitt

 

[manxman2601]

When does Josh Jackson have value for us?

 

[IllegalContact]

Is that sarcasm on your part?

Yes

 

[JayNM]

I hope they put him at center only to get rid of that garbage walking turnstile that is Andrews

 

[JarOfMayo51]

Man, its good to be Matt Ryan... they have just smothered him with offensive toys Peyton Manning style

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

The patriots right now a much worse team than the one that couldn’t stop a back up QB from putt8ng up 41 on them.

They have lost Solder, Cooks, Lewis and Butler, and added a back up guard.

 

[IllegalContact]

When does Josh Jackson have value for us?

After we get a linebacker

 

[manxman2601]

 

[cupofjoe1962]

This is a Wynn ... Wynn .....situation

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

An undersized tackle? Tell me the last undersized great tackle under 6'3

No no no, tell it like it is. He’s an OG with the ability to play OT. Don’t coveniently leave the fact that he’s position versatile out of your response.

 

[Ring 6]

We may use 31 if the cost to trade up stays as low as it has been. Lot of quality players on the board.

 

[Love The Drake]

Could Pitt or Jax take Jackson
Or Chargers trade up in front of us.
I'm surprised that Landry is still on the board.
He could get picked here or Seattle could trade the pick.
