The Official NFL Draft Day 2 thread

If there wasn't a trade partner just don't hand in the card. :bricks:

 

[Leemo]

im a bit pissed now, i wish we'd traded

48. Tavon Wilson

 

[Bobs My Uncle]

Maybe this is BB's statement that he thinks this years draft class sucks the big one.

 

[JimJohns]

He wasn't even one of the better safetys in he BIG10 last year. What a fail pick. Maybe BB starter drinking early and thought it was the 7th round instead of 2nd.

I mean, why didnt Bill trade down? I dont care that its a bad deal. No one was taking this guy.

maybe no ones wants to trade

 

[brady199]

Everyone thought we drafted Ridley 3 rounds too early as well, we'll just have to wait and see with this one.

The board is still loaded. Probably no team felt the need to trade up.

 

[Pats]

Here's our Wilson. #3

[TyronePoole]

someone somewhere is trying to convince Tavon Wilson he's not being pranked

 

[English Patriot]

Trayvon Wilson has a draft grade of wait for it......... 48.2! NFL is basically saying don't take this guy.

It's all good though this is the kind of player BB wants

 

[Urgent]

OK.
Glass is half full of rose-colored water.

The Pats secondary was so bad, some guy no one has heard of is now the second-best player in the defensive backfield.

 

[A.C Vegas]

all i can say is remember the last time the Pats did a WTF pick in the second round was Vollmer and he was great rookie year and when he was on the field last year he was great

 

[Ununcle]

Just got a pic of Wilson...the man can ball!!

HEY!

That's my joke. First come first serve. No coming in here with your flashy gifs steeling my thunder.

Strengths

Wilson has an excellent athletic ability and can fly around the field. He also has an ideal build for a safety at 6’0”, 205 pounds and can attack a player and create fumbles with his hits. He’s a smart leader as well and is known as a hard-working player.

His best part of his game is his special teams' abilities. He is an instant gunner for whoever drafts him and can still contribute as a depth safety. Also, he has an excellent blitz ability.



Weaknesses

He isn’t the most fluid athlete and has issues with coverage. He doesn’t have the best hips and isn’t the most instinctive player, either. He also has issues wrapping up his tackles and doesn’t always take the best angles.


Overview

He’s a true project at safety. He is not likely to contribute past special teams early on and is a likely role player.

[brady199]

I wonder if this guys is a special teams ace?

 

[English Patriot]

WOW Worthy and Reyes go straight after our picks. Abit gutted

 

[Sfpat]

Wow

BB has decided to pack it in for this draft. He's making a mockery of it.

And this isn't like the Vollmer pick who would have been taken early in the third round.

 

[letekro]

someone in the scouting department had a hardon for this guy. No market for a trade down probably.

 

[crowell33]

I've checked half a dozen separate scouting reports on this guy. All have him ranked as an undrafted priority free agent. Could this be a special teams only pick ? Seems way too early for that but who knows.

Gregory must be the happiest man in America today. He may need to start after all.
