Updated 12/30: Currently have the 11th pick (7-9)
- Thread starter Elias
- Start date
things change week to week but hopeful he would be there for us in the 2nd round...
so far in the 2020 Prospect sub forum posted:
Top 5 CB, Top 5 Left OT, & Top 15 IOL
No matter where we pick it has to be either LT (Thomas or Wirfs) or Jeudy or Lamb. I don't want another win at this point. We have a shot at 1 of those 4 so we need to stay in top 7.
Have to take Okudah in that situation unless Douglas lands a CB in FA. Even then, Lamb or Jeudy make sense. Okudah is by far the best Corner in the draft, Leatherwood can be taken round 2 and has better production then the higher ranked OTs. Drafting potential has gotten us where we are now. I wouldn't be surprised if we wait until round 3 for OT and Target Prince Wanogho based on Gase's priorities and Douglas (Eagles) draft history / type
I'll second that .....................................I think that the only way we could move up any more is if one of those teams above us were to win out which is highly unlikely. Not sure if that is even possible.

I would lean towards Wirfs. This team has needs. They can't draft BPA anymore. Sometimes you have to reach a little. This OL has 5 spots that need to be filled in next two years. And we need a top WR as well.
Cards r 4 retirees 2 root 4 anyway... Think u have 2 show ur walker & ur Depends b4 they let u in...
You're checking the right boxes as far as position goes "G" so I'll support your wish list, at least for now. I might have to change a couple of them once the draft draws closer and it would also depend on who's available when our pick comes up.
Sitting at 11 now, let's hope for Denver and Charger Wins to move up to 9th. Raiders win will drop us 1 spot.
I'd very much want to go OL in the first, unless it would be a reach and there are no trade-down possibilities.
Presuming Young is gone (and if Young, Thomas, and the big QBs are all off the board, that's just Jets luck), I would likely want to take a look at either Simmons of Clemson or Espensa. I think Espensa might be a better scheme fit. I might even put the kid from Notre Dame, Okwara, right there with Gross-Metos.
HOWEVER...there are a lot of edge guys who may be there early second. My ideal would be to get OT Andrew Thomas in the first, and then see a very good edge rusher sitting there in the second, like Weaver from Boise St., Anae from Utah, or even maybe Lewis from Alabama.
First choice has to be Andrew Thomas. However, Austin Jackson probably grades out in the same range. Either of them would be worth a top 10 pick. I don't see a center in this draft worth that high a pick.
