The Official 2022 NFL Draft Thread

Who you want us to take Pete?

A Kicker. Worked out well previously.

Name and college jelly.

[Pirate Life]

I'm leery of Neal. Not sure how he will be in coverage, they blitzed him a lot at GA. Usually dont do that if the player is good in coverage. How much of his ability/talent was able to flash because he rarely had to fight through blocks with that d-line?
One of the dts or cbs please.

[mdb1958]

Already gave you the college.

Ray Finkle.

Send Bootz back in, I'm not done with him either.

[MJW]

Last time, I promise.

DRAFT
TRAVIS
JONES

Why wouldn't the Ravens want Malik? A project qb backup who, if your primary guy Lamar goes down, requires you to change nothing. Maybe they will want to move up to make sure they get him?

Just sayin.

He has coverage chops. That doesn't worry me.

What does worry me is that Neal barely ran faster than his teammate Jordan Davis, both about 4.7. When you account for the fact that Neal ran that time at his pro day and Davis ran his at the combine, there's a legit argument to be made that Davis could outrun the linebacker who he outweighs by 120 pounds.

People see Neal making plays in college despite that speed because his vision and recognition are pretty good. He didn't win the Butkus Award for nothing after all.

What worries me is that his lack of long speed is severely limiting. In college, Neal didn't have to defend longer concepts or deeper routes because his defense was utterly dominant, so offenses tried to get the ball out of their hands as fast as possible.

He won't have that luxury in the pros. There will come the day very early in his career when he will be in man coverage and has to cover a wheel route against a running back with 4.4 or better speed. On that day, Neal is going to get exposed, bad. And smart offensive coordinators will abuse him, likely repeatedly.

That makes me nervous, and it wouldn't surprise me if that's reason A why he dropped.

You answered your own question. He's a project. And yes, they would have to change a ton if LJ went down. They already have a guy like that in Huntley and he didn't even cost them a draft pick.

This, basically. Though the offense they could roll out with both of them on the field at the same time could be evolutionary. Two guys who run like that and can throw the ball 60 yards? Think of the bizarre option looks and wildcat stuff.

[mdb1958]

I wonder if we got a trade down ironed out last night?

[TonyLip]

So, it’s Travis or Logan at 33, huh?
Ok.

Then a bunch of alligator-armed irregularly shaped ‘tilapias’ hoping to make it happen at the next level.

And James Cook.
And that CSU TE everyone’s high on.

[Nano]

Draft time!

Jones has 34 1/4 arms.

[Doctor]

I'd love to take both the seahawks picks

[TonyLip]

Fast n Furrious! (sp.)
lol

[TonyLip]

It’s Friday!!
Drinks are on the House…er… Bucs.

[Backside]

I'd love to take both the seahawks picks

Would they give us 40 & 41 for 33 & 180?

Amazing deal for us. But maybe they are desperate.

[TonyLip]

Glad I didn’t miss that trick!

[BearLandBucFan]

No trade, we are picking.

[TonyLip]

Trade back again?
No?

[Doctor]

I think so.

[Nano]

Pick is in

[Backside]

Spoiled myself


I’m fine with it

[These Are The Days]

Please shore up O-Line or D-Line. For God's sake. Please

[TonyLip]

Logan Hall

[Primeminister]

[Backside]

Welcome aboard

[These Are The Days]

I would've just been happier with Wyatt. Fuck it, use the picks correctly Jason.



Edit: looking at former Rays at the same time. I'm a dumbass

[Doctor]

Plug and play starter. Many had him going there. Not Dean but in the cluster below.

[Doctor]

Packers trade up... Chris Watson? Dean?

[kaimaru]

I would've just been happier with Myers. Fuck it, use the picks correctly Jason.

Who?

[MJW]

Good pick. Wardaddy. Frame to add a little more bulk. He'll be a good one. I'm glad we're addressing the DL.

[Doctor]

Packers getting Chris Watson is fantastic. Great for them.

Falcons trade up... Malik?

[BearLandBucFan]

I hope so as I am not a big fan of him.

[These Are The Days]

Who?

Wyatt. I'm so stupid. I'm looking up old Rays at the same time right now and had Wil Myers on the brain. Sheesh
