DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official 2022 NFL Draft Thread: Day 1

[FCB02062]

Cole Trickle or Dr Strange not available?

 

[TheRainMaker]

I absolutely think bill the GM doesn't care about the draft. he thinks he can take any bum from any college and make him an NFL player.

Damien Woody actually said that about Bill.

 

[AQPE]

“Positional flexibility” will be on everyone’s lips within 24 hours

 

[Rob0729]

Certainly, not the pick I would make. Don’t know anything about the guy, but I am certainly not a draftnick. There are a lot of good players left. The Pats are likely to trade up tomorrow. Let’s hope they come away with three or four solid players tomorrow.

 

[Kontradiction]

Couldn’t lose this stud!

 

[Joker]

you just know the word "strange" will be used 10,000 times by the end of this draft to describe this idiotic pick...33 inch arms...light in the seat...WTF??????

 

[gtfanboy]

Even if they liked the guy, they could have easily gotten someone else and came back and grabbed him the second round at the earliest.

 

[PatsFan2]

Nothing on Cole Strange... Strange??

 

[TheBeers]

If we find out he's got the Scarnechia seal of approval i'm good with it

 

[203Pat]

???

No they weren't.

I'll give you Najee because he's a RB.

The other 3 were not big contributors last year. Rousseau didn't start. In fact, he and Epenesa are so underwhelming that the Bills went all out for Von Miller. Elijah Moore will be very good eventually, but he was not a big contributor.

You also listed a bunch of guys after that who weren't contributors.

Rousseau started 17 games with 4 sacks, a pick, and 50 tackles on a playoff team. Didn't light the world on fire but that is definitely a contribution. Moore started 6 games and had 43 catches for over 500 yards and 5 TDs on the 27th ranked offense with a rookie QB. Once again didnt light the world on fire but definitely contributed.

Justin Jefferson didn't contribute his rookie year? 88 for 1400 yards and 7 TDs? Aiyuk, 60 for 750 and 5 TDs on a super bowl team? Murray had 100+ tackles and a sack his rookie year. Queen, 100+ tackles, 3 sacks and a pick. CEH over 1000 all purpose yards and 5 TDs on a super bowl team. Higgins 67 for 900+ and 6 TDs. These aren't contributing numbers?

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

The first pick to get zero reaction from the crowd lol

 

[Kdo5]

Everybody's a hater until your new guard sends the D-Line into the mirror dimension. Let's see how it goes.

No way, man. This was not an actual need, this guy is a second or third rounder. It was a major reach and they passed on potential impact players at both 21 and 29. It doesn’t matter how good Cole Strange becomes, this will always be viewed as a bad pick.

[VJCPatriot]

LOL, BB reaches again in round 1. Ok... YUP. That just happened.

We could have got this guy at 54 with our 2nd round pick. BB just TROLLED us HARD!!

 

[upstater1]

93% chance at being there at 54

 

[Joker]

he showed "compete" at the Senior Bowl!!! they passed up STUDS that would immediately help for THIS???? It's Bill going full Mankins

 

[stcjones]

First pick of the night where the commentators and analysts didn’t even go over what Cole strange has done in his college career… They just completely went to the Kansas City chiefs and Kelce to go over what they need in their next pick… So disrespectful

 

[festy1986]

Imagine spending your first round pick to replace Shaq mason, a guy you traded and didn't need to lose.

 

[FCB02062]

It happened with Dugger, and that turned out pretty well - though it was in the 2nd (not that #29 is that far off). Dugger and Strange are not really on the same level though... IMO

and Duggar did nothing his rookie year ...this team needs impact players now, not guards

 

[ausbacker]

Belichick still drafting like we've got peak TB12.
