Draft Gurus

CMicks3110 : 11/25/2014 4:39 pm
Any early sense/analysis of how good the 2015 draft is going to be?

Who are some of the standouts at the positions of need? OL? DL? LB? S? TE?
Sy56 and Colin from GBN...

usually provide very good analysis on the draft class. I would wait for their comments. I'm sure their analysis is probably incomplete until end of season though.
RB and LB could be strong

A lot of good 3-4 OLBs. Several good OTs. Doesn't look like a deep draft for DBs, DL and receivers.
They say that this is not a very deep draft class

which could work in our favor based on what pick we have.
Not a great one

Best RB draft in a while but don't think RB is a 1st rd position for many teams anymore.

I think it's a Good DL draft, I really like Gregory(NEB), Williams (USC) and a little later in 1st Dante Fowler Jr(UF). I love Daniele Hunter out of LSU in 2/3; I think he's gonna fly up draft boards with combine/leaving early.

I'm a CT guy but Byron Jones out of Uconn may be the next good Uconn DB. Physical with great ball skills.

Erick kendricks or Denzel Perryman could solve a lot of problems for a long time at ILB. Both mid 2nd/ maybe drop to 3rd

TE/OG/WR/4-3 OLB look very weak/thin
2 top 5 QBs

Mariota and Jameis are locks for top 5; maybe top 3. This is going to really help our value.

Seems to be a ton of teams who will need to go a new way with QB this offseason. STL,NYJ, WAS, HOU,TAM, TEN, TB. Then maybe even ARI,CAR and OAK(never know).

Winston is far from a lock. There are a lot of red flags with him. That doesn't mean he won't go that early but if I'm running an NFL I'm not hitching my wagon to him.

Tennessee and Oakland have to see what they have in Mettenberger and Carr respectively. Both look good so far. I think Carr is a keeper.
If the QB's for this draft was like 2004

We would really be debating on a QB IMO. Not b/c Eli is finished but b/c a solid talent could fall in the Giants lap. I don't trust either top QB in this draft.
