A Round One Suprise Prediction

KWALL2 : 4/28/2016 3:38 pm
How about a surprise pick in round 1? You have one?

WR Shepard in round 1. Why isn't he getting more talk as a high pick? Super athletic and a great route runner. Size shouldn't be enough to keep him out of round 1.

Last year Diggs and Lockett were 2 of the best rookies in the league. He's a similar player with explosive short area quicks. I'd bet on teams taking notice of his Antonio Brown type game.

If NE had a round one pick it would be a perfect match. Somebody will recognize it and draft Shepard at the bottom of round 1 (and before Treadwell!).

You got any?
Kevin Dodd?

Spriggs.
If Jack is there.  
Randy in CT : 4/28/2016 3:42 pm : link
I will be surprised we pass on him.

And I will cry...just a little...
Good call Ryan  
KWALL2 : 4/28/2016 3:42 pm : link
On NFL Network they said he may go to the Jets in round 1. They have him playing a Buchanon/Barron type LB role. Said there is a big demand for that type of player right now
Josh Doctson

I would be happy with a trade back and taking SS
Love Shepard!  
TC : 4/28/2016 3:43 pm : link
But many who've totem-poled the prospects have him lasting until almost the 3rd round. You know, too small, can only play the slot, etc. I don't happene to agree, but that seems to be a common opinion.

But as much as I like him, I don't think he's a #10 pick, though I'd sure welcome him at #40!

Hmmm.  
Anakim : 4/28/2016 3:45 pm : link
Xavien Howard? Chris Jones? Karl Joseph? Germain Ifedi?
Bosa falls out of top 10  
Chris684 : 4/28/2016 3:45 pm : link
The 3 QBs plus Ramsey, Tunsil, Elliott, Buckner, Floyd, Hargreaves, Jack, Stanley all go before him.

My surprise pick is the Smails kid picks his nose...  
Jimmy Googs : 4/28/2016 3:46 pm : link

Sorry I misread the question..  
Chris684 : 4/28/2016 3:47 pm : link
surprise pick in the 1st?

I think Karl Joseph and Noah Spence will both go in round 1.

Both are too talented to drop that far despite injury/character concerns.
What if the Giants DID take a QB?

Agreed. Him and Pryor would be quite a duo back there.

Only 2 Qb  
Torn Tendon : 4/28/2016 4:09 pm : link
taken in the 1st round. Giants take Jacks at 10.
5 QB's round one.  
wgenesis123 : 4/28/2016 4:11 pm : link
Goff, Lynch, Wentz, Cook, and Eric from BBI.
Bosa falls to 10, Giants draft him  
Greg from LI : 4/28/2016 4:13 pm : link
.
Eagles take  
Hampton27 : 4/28/2016 4:16 pm : link
Ezekiel Elliott. Jumped the Cowboys who were a strong possibility to draft him. An exceptional talent with few flaws. Ryan Matthews is injury prone. Refusing to trade Bradford. Carson Wentz is a far riskier gamble given his small school background and level of competition, nor is he a top 10 talent.

Insane? Perhaps, but this league and the draft is so subjective.

Fire away.

Corey Coleman at 7

to the Niners.

Braxton Miller to the Vikings in 1st round

Mr. Bungle : 4/28/2016 4:20 pm : link
Tomorrow, we're talking about how Laquon Treadwell is still available.
WR RD 2  
GMen23 : 4/28/2016 4:49 pm : link
I have conceded there isn't a WR worthy of 10, and I see a few great prospects at 40. But not confident going past there, with Myles White currently running 1st team. Ugh.
JonC  
KWALL2 : 4/28/2016 5:00 pm : link
I havent started the round 2 surprise thread. A little early with that Treadwell call my friend.
With the 10th pick  
geelabee : 4/28/2016 5:05 pm : link
Giants select Andrew Billings

huygens20 : 4/28/2016 5:08 pm : link
Coleman or Doctson

Or
Taylor Decker
you're right about Shephard  
santacruzom : 4/28/2016 5:08 pm : link
Everything you read about him is positively glowing, and yet he's regarded as a 2nd rounder. It reminds me of Draymond Green.
Nkemdiche  
allstarjim : 4/28/2016 5:09 pm : link
Is selected at #9 to the Bucs.

Tunsil falls and is taken by the Giants at #10.
THRILL RIDE HAS ARRIVED  
One Man Thrill Ride : 4/28/2016 5:10 pm : link
to chime in on some predictions.

- Doctson first Wr picked and somebody moves up to get him.

- Bosa outside the top-10

- Fallers into the 20s: Myles, Treadwell

- Karl Joseph top-25

- Stanley ahead of Tunsil (both Mayock and McShay have it so not quite bold)

- Eagles fans boo their pick
The Giants could surprise us all ...  
Torrag : 4/28/2016 5:20 pm : link
...Floyd is a smokescreen...

...and the pick is...

DE Shaq Lawson

...or not...
Giants are so confused by the trade options that they forget to pick  
Ivan15 : 4/28/2016 5:25 pm : link
Top that one!
Jerry Reese pulls off his life-mask and is revealed as...  
BMac : 4/28/2016 5:55 pm : link
...Kevin Costner.
Shaq Lawson  
JKBlue : 4/28/2016 5:59 pm : link
months ago he was #2 DE behind Bosa and top 10 prospect
Surprise - The Giants trade out of #10  
PatersonPlank : 4/28/2016 6:07 pm : link
getting a later 1st Rd pick and a 2nd or 3rd. With that pick they take Doctson from TCU.
If Bosa  
PaulN : 4/28/2016 6:13 pm : link
Was there at 10 and the Giants did not pick him, that would be a mistake. He may not be a super talent, but I think he will be a very good player.
Ivan wins  
PaulN : 4/28/2016 6:14 pm : link
LOL! That is a very good one. How about Mara is so mad he makes the pick after sending Jerry home for missing the pick.
Few predictions  
Patrick77 : 4/28/2016 6:15 pm : link
Artie Burns goes before the 25th pick.
Bosa goes after the 15th pick (drugs?)
Reggie Ragland falls out of the first round
Shaq Lawson goes after 15
Kevin Dodd is the 2nd DE off the board after Buckner
Leonard Floyd goes top 5
Laquon Treadwell falls out of the top 20

Now watch not a single one of these come true.
