DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official 2022 NFL Draft Thread: Day 1

[nowayback]

At least we took the best available player


Bills scared to death now

 

[VectorPrime]

ESPN’s analytic predictor which who the hell knows how it works but it predicted that this stiff had a 93% chance of still being available at 54.

 

[Patsgofor4]

Just got back from taking a sh*t. What did I miss? Did they pick somebody good?

 

[TheRazorsEdge]

Now use one of those 6th round picks and trade up for Dean immediately.

Matt Patricia is on deck

 

[Patriot Missile]

Just wtf, no offense to Strange, he might be really good, but there was no need to take him at 29. He would of been available at 54. This team is no better after day 1of the draft unless this kid outperforms Mason from day 1.

 

[TBR]

Just got back from taking a sh*t. What did I miss? Did they pick somebody good?

A guard who was projected to go in the 3rd to 4th. Maybe mid 2nd absolute best case scenario.

 

[Schmo]

Gdmmit NIKE!!!!

 

[VJCPatriot]

You know how we thought N'Keal Harry and Tavon Wilson were bad picks?

BB's like "HOLD MY BEER!", moments later the Commissioner reads out loud in surprise, "with the 29th pick the New England Patriots select Cole Strange!"

 

[XLIX]

I’d be lying if I said I even heard of the guy. And ESPN was no help. They had *nothing* on him. They said he originally committed to the Naval Academy then went to Chattanooga, then went straight to KC’s pick.

 

[Lavictoire]

The dog is in Bill's draft chair again making picks.

 

[Grogan14]

I mean he could be a good long term solution. Just because the ESPN mediates had him ranked lower does not mean that he will suck. He can play both guard and center and fixing the line is very important with mason gone and andrews getting long in the tooth. I do think they should have tried to trade up for Penning or Davis

Rebuilding this team will mean prioritizing the lines

 

[sb1]

People are strange... this pick is stranger

 

[Ross12]

They probably like his work ethic a lot. We've seen them place a lot more value on that than other teams as a cultural thing.

 

[VectorPrime]

So Sean McVay had a LATE 3rd round grade on him lmao.

 

[Kontradiction]

OK



Now we wait to hear whether this was a scout choice or BB going rogue again. Should be good fun until then.

Is that even a question?

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

To justify it at 29 he needs to be on thuney and masons level.

I do like him as a prospect overall but like, 29? Whatever, if he ends up being a starter at least as good as Karras then it's not a total bust. They must really like him.

Don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out

 

[PatsFan2]

We might be in the Top 10 next year even Bill can't botch that. A First Round pick I never heard of yikes.

Cole Strange Stays Confident, But Humble As His NFL Draft Stock Has Skyrocketed

While Strange has enjoyed his rise in attention, it's also a position he always saw himself in during his time with the Mocs.
