1st Round (28th Overall) DT Devonte Wyatt 
1st Round (22nd Overall) LB JaQuavian Walker  
2nd Round (34th Overall) WR Christian Watson 
3rd Round (92nd Overall) OT Sean Rhyan 
4th Round (132nd Overall) WR Romeo Doubs 
4th Round (140th Overall) C Zach Tom 
5th Round (179th Overall) OLB/EDGE Kingsley Enagbare
 

7th Round (228th Overall) LB Tariq Carpenter 
7th Round (234th Overall) DT Jonathan Ford 
7th Round (249th Overall) OT Rasheed Walker 
7th Round (258 Overall) WR Samori Toure 

When I saw people putting Devonte Wyatt to Packers in round one, I thought, nope, not chance, they haven't drafted anyone over 22 and they won't start now. And bammie whammie, here comes Wyatt.

I'm probably most excited about two of the WR's, Watson and Doubs. I wouldn't be surprised if we add another veteran WR, but also wouldn't be surprised if we stand with what we got.

What do you think about the players drafted?

Good looking group of players.


I am still complaining about the Jonathan Ford pick, but I am never fully satisfied with a draft. I think this was a quality draft by Gute and his staff. We will see in 3 years how good it looks.

Oddly, I'm probably most excited about OL Zach Tom, he might bust, but he also might be another Bakhtiari and anywhere in-between. I can't say Tom will develop like Bakhtiari (and we never know about mentality) but from a strictly physical aspect Bakhtiari and Tom scouting reports seem almost identical to me.

They're both great in pass protection with BOTH good handwork and footwork that work perfectly in pass protection, giving them to potentially to be elite pass protectors. But of course media scouting reports suggest they're too small and lack lack to stay at OT in the NFL (they're almost the same exact size in body dimensions), they lack the power and physicality that a team would prefer at OG, and so they're Center prospects. With the big difference being, Bakhtiari never played Center, where Tom actually had a year or two starting at Center.

But if they can be tough enough to handle NFL physicality and learn to handle the power game, they have the potential to be elite pass protectors in the NFL, which clearly Bakhtiari was able to do.


But pre-draft, I was big fans of Wyatt, Watson, Tom and Enagbare and excited to get them.

I'm shocked that Enagbare almost to the 6th round, which suggest to me that NFL teams don't believe he has future growth. He's less than ideal athletically for edge rusher, but he's physical, got strong hands, and got great length.

Trying to figure out why he dropped, sounds like lack of athletic potential and very low sacks numbers, despite having extremely high win rate... he could beat the OL, but he couldn't finish. But other than athletically, he seem to be above average at everything. Not worried about his physicality at all, and he has great length. I don't want to compare him to Za'Darius, because he's not as athletic, but if I was teaching him, I'd make him study Za'Darius because he's going to have to learn the same exact ways Za'Darius did, which he won't be doing as a rookie, but give it some time (Za'Darius didn't do it as a rookie either).

Good looking group of players.

The Ford pick could have been used on someone with some potential. Not a dude who looks lazy on the tape I saw. "Griping" is probably not the way to describe my thoughts. A little annoyed that the Ford pick is keeping me from being positive about every pick. I hope he turns into a hall of famer, but I see no way in hell he ever becomes a impactful player.

It was a stellar draft otherwise.

In the draft, teams reach for potential traits and Ford has the traits, they're just completely undeveloped, and I doubt they'll developed, a she should be more developed than this. Also, he was the last DT selected, so I guess teams didn't see another DT worth a pick.
