Rogers will be the 1st then Turner, Bates stays solely cause he is a good blocker and can/will make the occasional catch and also for the sole fact Zack Ertz won’t play the entire 17 weeks season due to injury… Ertz, Sinnott and Turner 

For me it's Bates, he has been here to long and done next to nothing, average blocker that's it, I need to see what A.Rogers if healthy has, turner gets a shot too but Ertz has his spot taken care of as right now.

Most advanced metrics had this OL as around mediocre but not as terrible as many here think. Bad scheme and a QB that has a propensity for taking a ton of sacks going back to college made them look worse than they are.

 

Wylie is such an interesting case. His metrics suggest he's actually half decent. The problem is when he does get beat, he gets beat BAD. Its not like ok he got beat but can still put up a fight, when he loses a rep he often completely whiffs. 

Bad get's your QB killed and it was worst inside so maybe they fixed some of that. No's are just no's and do not tell the real story, sometimes you have to believe your eyes.

Just like when the oline was getting RG3 killed, everyone said how bad they were. Kirk came in and they looked fine.

We have had what 7/8 starting day 1 QB's and most played their last games here and not make it through the season. The OL has been terrible during these times. They have not been okay. OL rebuild should have started last year when we were in position to take them, instead we got DB's. Ravens, Steelers just rebuild the lines year after year through the draft mainly. I guess we will see this year and do not blame the new staff for taking who they took instead of OL. Maybe their 2 FA signings and 3rd rd. draft pick will improve the line from last year?  

I wanted the team to draft 3 QB's before Daniels, 2 with a trade down. Reason being body and age and running style for fear of injuries. That's it never posted or commented on stats numbers, metrics, mother, Arm......I Commented on the hits he received and his style running and player comparable. I commented for the opposition quite a bit for what I wanted and who I like, with that said they picked J.D. and I believe in the front office and loved this draft top to bottom. To me he is Field's running, but a much better passer. His body is more a W.R. type while Jamar has a running back type build, he can take and give hits, straight arms what ever. Never had any hate for him and said in the end I would be on board if they pick him. Also think these coaches will be wise to keep him as safe as possible while using all his skills. Hail to the Commanders we have a new QB!

Dude, I called this draft. I called Alt to the Chargers, I called the trade down, I definitely called DL and CB in the second a hundred times. I switched my tune on QB last week because of a private discussion with Sip, which I hate, but am open to, but I nailed this draft and have been called an idiot for a lot of it. 

 

This year, when I had eye surgery and couldn't sit up for a week, I just watched tape. I know I trailed off. My top 100 was close to GCs though.

 

We've crushed this draft like crazy.

Dudes a first round IDL and as good as anyone and we're use to crap like Ridgeway. Mathis is done as well. Out of the league this year probably.

 

We just permanently cemented our best strength. That rotation is nasty. Right in the middle we're coming. I bet we have some happy linebackers after that pick 

You did call DL before the senior bowl 3/4 type end, I was right there too even suggested FL. St. Fiske after watching S.B. practice.  My only post before the 2nd. rd. started I said we should take a hard look at DL because of value, also suggested the trade down on our pick 40. I like the pick of course but thought it might be Jenkins or Fiske in a trade down. Thought we might take Ladd first (SIP pick for 36).  But he went 2 picks before ours liked him also from the senior bowl.

He was my second favorite day 3 WR after Malik Washington. I think he can develop into a really good WR1 with this group. I love this pick. 

 

I still want a 5'8" 200lbs MJD built, but WR with breakaway speed like Malik on day 3 to return kicks and handle screens and stuff. 

Man, I have called this draft so close to perfect.

 

What was the trade for multiple 50's picks? That was genius. I've been Pounding the table for that for months 

I agree nice draft, OT early could not happen without a trade, so they took DL where the value was. Did not get Ladd, Roman, he is that type and our pick from the Bears late 3rd, so would not have been their rd.5.

We are not trading our best player in Allen. Him and Payne have a real chance to blow up this year. Our team is Allen. He's seriously our best player and a total leader of the team. 

 

Trading Allen would be a shot in our foot. We built on our only strength and don't need scrubs like Mathis and Ridgeway anymore.

Iaoniddis had one good year, got flagged for drugs and has sucked since. Why do people still like him?

Now you have another man in the middle who can rotate and not lose a beat while keeping all fresh or 3/4 at times. Very happy with the pick, the run on OL in the first made it possible for him to drop. The value was DL early 2nd. I posted we should take a hard look in my other post.

4.70 40, 72nd percentile speed score. Kelce was 4.66 a decade ago, Mark Andrews is 4.67, Trey McBride is 4.61, Laporta 4.59, Pitts is a freak (low 4's), Kittle was 4.52 back when he was healthy, Dalton Kincaid was 4.68. He's definitely on the slow end of the field behind like literally every single top 10ish guy in the league, but he's also not outside the realm of the athleticism you need, as shown by the 72nd percentile speed score. With TE's the more athletic the better though in terms of hit rate and his burst and agility scores are sub 50th percentile, so athleticially, his profile is meh, you've got a point, I'm not in the cant stand him area, I like him, but he is a floor TE. Better than the guys in this class other than Bowers, but not great. Just solid plus guy (to me anyway). I can see your point, maybe my trade idea is a bit silly, how about dangling the late 3rd and a future 7th lol. 

I do not see why the Raiders would want to trade their physical TE, just because they drafted a 235lb TE who runs like a WR. They should use them both. They did not get a QB yesterday, Minshew is going to need the help and they will most likely run the ball more.

As for WRs, this is the list IMO of WRs that fit Daniels in some aspect.  I'd put Burton high on the list too but heard he's off some teams board based on character issues

 

As for Adonai am lower on him than most.  As I am lower also on Franklin.  But as I discussed with you in other posts, I don't always assume that i am right and the masses are wrong.  So I got an open mind.

 

As for Adonai, he's good at seperating.  Has killer speed.  Tracks the ball well.  Good at beat man-press.  Good at out routes which is what Daniels specializes in.

 

 

I am with you on Ladd if he is there at 36 he is the best value. I like Wilson with are 1st. 3rd rd. pick if he is still on the board, they just fit what we need.  I think we go OL, DE with 40 or trade down and have lots of choices from 40 till the end of 4th rd. TE, LB.... there is still a couple DL players that I would give a hard look in this range. Take my shots at DB's after the 4th. No need to reach for a player even though OT is the top need at this point, the ship might have sailed on the top ones? 

We may be able to sit at 36/40 now that 6 QB's are in the 1st rd. 

Time for me to get on board and hope for the best for our QB and team. Plus I believe in the new front office. Let's Go Commanders!

I don't think my life would have been worthwhile without reading your invigorating feedback.

 

It's always nice to know that your efforts, despite dealing with chronic fatigue and an inability to sleep more than a few hours most nights, are appreciated by the forum.

 

Kindest regards.

 I am done with the media voices, it's hours away and always looking forward to the draft. Sorry for the downer just ignore. Stay Kool and keep posting your story, stories and well thoughts posts please.

A bevy of final opinions from multiple experts and sports personalities on who we should draft…

 

 

 

Need to see it from the real people not the media. Realy not interested in the seeing these for, how many times.

Best of the best. Him and Monk were leaders and great men. Miss that now. Congrats speedy!

I made it to Canton to see Darell and Art get inducted into the HOF. Had a great time, congrads to the Man on the Island who always covered the other team best W.R. on either side of the field.

Anybody think GMAP definitely will take a 2nd QB late in the draft?

 

Per the Hogs Haven tracker, Commanders did meetings at the pro days for almost all the QBs in this class, and they met individually at some point with a total of at least 26 QBs during the pre-draft process.

 

Wondering if GMAP really thinks he might Purdy the draft again.

You thinking we are going to need one?

That “ RB” threw for more yards than Caleb, Maye, and JJ last season.

The QB mention breaking QB running record not passing. Is that what you want not me.

QB not a RB is hilarious.

 

Best passer in the draft according to some if not most. 

 

Man, these biases and narratives.

 

 

Then why does he want to break the rushing record? why not the Passing like you mention or maybe a ring?

I'm not a big Daniels fan but this is just disrespectful.

 

He IS a QB.

 

A QB who has the ability to run.. .

I did not mean it to be disrespectful and apologize. He wants to break the rushing record for a QB that's not what I want. Much rather him want to break the Passing record. RB have shorter careers.

Believe it or not Daniels has this exact same issue. He airmailed plenty of balls when pushed off his base in the pocket. He definitely maintains his mechanics better than Maye right now though. The dude lacks no confidence. I will give him that:

 

 

 

And that's why I hope we do not draft him. I want a QB not a RB were not going to win anything that matters with this QB. this type QB.

1 hour ago, Warhead36 said:

I'd rather he focus on being the best QB ever. Why add the running caveat?

 

This coupled with his goal of winning the Heisman instead of winning a natty is just...concerning.

 

He's everything I thought Williams would be. Not a bad kid but just...something is off character wise.

 

God I really really hope we don't draft him.

Are we drafting a RB?

I’m not so sure about that, Parsons is quite a bit bigger than JD, I don’t see JD breaking him in half. The more likely scenario is JD juking him and running for a TD

If he does that this happens.  And Daniels lifts his hand to let everyone know he is not paralyzed while lying in the back of the golf cart.

By doing their homework on Daniels I gather that means reading this thread?   We know that dude like the back of our hand.   We should be on speed dial with Peters.

 

 

 

Not sure about that, Maye said in his interview after top golf he was surprised at how much they knew about him going back to H.S.  They did their work on all is what I think.

So many think 4 qbs are going in the top 5. I just don’t see it. There are always surprises. A lot of qb needy teams, but that is no different than any other year. I think Giants could move to 3 and grab a qb, but i can definitely see Arizona and the Chargers taking WRs. If nobody leap frogs the giants, they could sit at 6 and still grab a qb. But, they may want to trade up to guarantee they get a guy they like. 

Kind of disagree, Minn. has the ammo to move up if they chose I believe. If you are the Chargers or Arizona you get 2 no.1 picks this year, No. 1 next year.  There are 4 super W.R's in the top half of the draft. And some really good OL,DL,or what ever later. and you have a no.1 next year.
