Eighteen Days Till The Draft . . .

And the speculation continues. . . . So far our 1st pick in the 1st round will be: Mitch Biscuit, DeShone (Walking Dead) Kizer, DeShaun Watson, Salomon Thomas, Myles Garrett (dream), Jonathan Allen, Jamal Adams, Malik Hooker, Mike Williams, Marshon Lattimore, Corey Davis, and even Leonard Fournette. Stop me if you’ve heard others.

The only guy who hasn’t been slotted to us (that I’ve seen anyway) is Marlon Humphrey.  Seeing as we lost the likely-to-be-looking-for-work-anyway-till-he-got-arrested-and sealed-the-deal CB Tremaine Brock, and are looking to move Jimmie Ward to FS, this just might be the call.

Then again, we’ve drafted a bunch of CBs in these past few years. ACL guys and non-ACL guys. 4th rounder Rashard Robinson, showed a lot of moxie his rookie season, and looks to be in the mix as a starter. 3rd rounder Will Redmond, the last of Trent Baalke’s ACL guys (“I guarantee he’ll be ready for the 2016 season!”) is healed up but it’s hard to know what they have with him. He’s got tape out there on him moving very well on his repaired knee. K’Waun Williams, this new front office’s first move, is an intriguing candidate as well. He seemed to know his injury better than the doctors at the Factory of Sadness, sat himself down, got his injury confirmed, and sued Cleveland for incompetence or some shit.

Then there’s Prince Charles Iworah . . . He played a little last year after being cut, signed to the practice squad, and promoted to the team late in the season.

So, shit. We probably don’t go CB. We’d go safety before CB I’d think. Tartt is a solid starter. But after that it gets thin. Bethea is gone, Reid is a question mark after all his concussions, and  Ball & Sunseri  are backups at best. Ward should be a solid addition to the mix, but depth is a concern at this point. Hooker has had a stellar college career, but two surgeries. One on a torn labrum and one on a hernia. He played through the injuries, and played well, so this likely doesn’t hurt Makik the Freak.

I’d love to trade out of the 2nd pick, but I don’t hear enough clamor for anyone to want to jump to the 2. I mean, if there was a top-tier QB among the chaff someone might make the jump.  Cleveland could even trade up to try and get Garrett AND Trubisky with the one and 2. Maybe they’ll settle for waiting at 12 because he could still be there, but that’s a risk. For them.

    Just throwing it out here for something to do while we wait for it all to happen –
    Included the links to each Bio from NFL.com too 😀
    RBs – No particular order….

    Donnel Pumphrey RB SDSU 5’8″/176 (4.48)(PR/KR-Slot?) (1,059 ATT/6,405 YDS/62 TDS) (100 REC/1,041 YDS) http://tinyurl.com/mel4km8
    TJ Logan RB UNC 5’9″/196 (4.37)(PR/KR-Slot?) (585 ATT/3,105 YDS/24 TDS) (128 REC/1,067 YDS) http://tinyurl.com/m3vzrcu
    Kareem Hunt RB Toledo 5’10″/216 (4.57) (782 ATT/4,945 YDS/44 TDS) (73 REC/555 YDS) (1 fumble/856 ATT) http://tinyurl.com/jvrnluo
    Dalvin Cook RB FSU 5’10″/210 (4.49) (687 ATT/4,464 YDS/46 TDS) (79 REC/935 YDS) http://tinyurl.com/k3zpk6j
    Joe Williams RB Utah 5’11″/210 (4.42) (317 ATT/1,890 YDS/13 TDS) (20 REC/191 YDS) http://tinyurl.com/lejgcvu

    Kareem Hunt has speed issues. Turned in a pair of 4.62s in Indy. Improved it to high 4.5s at his Pro Day.
    Couldn’t omit him for one simple reason. He doesn’t fumble and, he gets North & South.
    Said to be a good fit for the ZBS as well.

      I’m guessing the last 2 posts I made which included multiple Web Links might be an issue?

    Damn …….the Giants sure suck. Nothing works. It’s going to be a long summer.

    • Winder's avatar Winder says:

      I hope this means they are getting all the crap out of the way early this year. They usually do this in June. Anyway, it does look like it will be a very long year.

  9. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    They didn’t get any OF help, and now guys are getting hurt. Merrero is bupkus. They need to bring guys up. Arroyo. Do something. Get Nunez into LF.

    • Winder's avatar Winder says:

      Nunez has been a bright spot ever since he got here. To bad we can’t get Duffy back, I know he’s been hurt but he was good for the team. Baseball does seem to be more of a young man’s game than it used to be especially when it comes to pitching.

    Yet. Bochy refuses to bat Nooner lead off. Instead we get old man Span who can’t get on base to do anything with his speed.
