Still not in favor of it as in reality teams sign quite a few URFAs. Which is why I offered the consecutive days option for the open window period. 4 days, 4 open windows. One player per open window period. Total maximum any Team/GM could get would be 4 players at the end of it all. How many UDRFA do you think each NFL team would average? 4? -- 6? -- 10? Each team is different. There is no way all 32 GMs would agree to 10 consecutive days of open window UDRFA selecting. No one would agree to that. And what's more, the only GMs who would participate would likely be me, GHH and maybe one other. It's clear my suggestion has flummoxed folks. Sorry I brought it up.

AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 With the 232nd pick in the ES Mock Draft, The Minnesota Vikings select.... Brendan Langley, CB Lamar Langley ran a smooth 4.4 at the combine. He played last season as a WR at Lamar, but has some experience playing defensive back. He projects to be a corner in the league, and I think his combo of size and athleticism gives him some real upside. I did want to say that I really enjoyed participating in this year's draft. It's nice to have a thread where football is the main order of business, and I appreciate all of you guys for letting me have a seat at the table.

PokerPacker Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 In reference to all the UDFA talk, simply put, I will not be participating in any form of UDFA that attempts to assign players to teams. You want to talk about players that weren't taken that you think could be something? Go right ahead; it's good discussion. But I will not be participating (and everyone knows UDFAs love the Packers, anyways) and when grading the draft, I will not be giving anyone credit for them.

DogofWar1 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I'll sit out any UDFAs this year. Normally I'd be all over that, but this year work is just workworkwork. No time to really prep a list thoroughly. New Orleans' Draft: 1st Round, Pick 11: Marlon Humphrey, CB, Alabama 1st Round, Pick 32: Charles Harris, DE/OLB, Missouri 2nd Round, Pick 41: Teez Tabor, CB, Florida 3rd Round, Pick 76: Marcus Maye, S, Florida 4th Round, Pick 130: Brad Kaaya, QB, Miami (Fla.) 5th Round, Pick 169: Zach Banner, OT/OG, USC 7th Round, Pick 229: Josh Carraway, DE/OLB, TCU The Saints had too many needs to fit them all in, but the secondary was/is a huge need and obviously that was addressed quite strongly in the first three rounds. DE is also a major need, and Harris should be able to help early on, with Carraway hopefully getting some late seasons snaps while mostly being a special teamer. Banner is probably a future OG, but in any instance, if he develops he'll have a place on the line. Kaaya is a project too, but Brees is getting up there, so it's time to draft some projects over the next couple years and see if any of them can turn into the next Cousins/Wilson/Prescott and prove capable enough for a starting role. On the whole, probably grade myself either a B or B+ depending on the grading curve. Hit the two biggest needs (Secondary, DE) with solid players. However, I did not address RB (no one really stuck out at my picks), which I would probably rate as need #3, so the Saints will be pulling guys off the market to see if any fit well. Further Kaaya was a somewhat distant 2nd to Davis Webb in terms of project QBs I liked. I traded myself away from Webb, so went with Kaaya later. Not that I dislike Kaaya, but in terms of chances of success, I think Webb is more likely to succeed. RT was also a need; not an immediate one, but one likely in 1-2 years. Banner may or may not work on the outside, but if he slips inside, RT is still a need, and adding a 3rd or 4th WR would have been nice. Not losing Cooks certainly helps the WR corp maintain strength though, so it wasn't the most pressing need. On the whole, it was kind of funny how at 41 AND 76 the top rated guys I had were all secondary players. On the whole, I think this draft would drastically help the defense, both immediately and down the road, and that's the main thing we needed. For other needs, there are other years.

Go announce the draft thread you wanted to take McCaffrey at 4 overall. Then sit back and watch the ensuing carnage from those that patently haven't seen him play. I TRIPLE DARE YOU!!!!! Hail.
