New rumor on ESPN: Moving up w SF for Bosa

Postby DeadRinger » Thu Apr 25, 2019 6:49 am

Take it for what it's worth: Draft day chatter.

it's possible Mayock and Gruden, knowing how important this draft is, are shooting for the more polished, "sure thing" type players as opposed to the athletic types like Josh Allen.

If that's the case, I could see us pursuing Fant as well over some other potentially higher-ceiling TEs, and maybe go w an interior lineman like Risner instead of risk it on a skill guy.

We'll see how safe they want to play it.

I was expecting Allen also, but go back to the other thread of what I said about Allen.
Maybe the staff dug a little deeper into his history? Or wasn't a scheme fit?
I heard Josh Allen didn't really like football, started playing late, and wasnt serious about it until he had his kid.
Also has ADD.
Maybe Mayock went with his gut on this one?


Ferrell is no small consolation prize, he's bigger and better suited to play against the run and set the edge.
Also, has a shit ton of sacks and played great in the championship game last year upsetting Alabama.
While not flashy, I'm happy about getting a premiere DE albeit a little higher than what i thought.
After going back and watching the NFL network take on our selection, Ferrell comes from a military family, and all the scouts said he had the best character background out of all the DE's.

Scheme fit is what it’s all about.

That’s what Mayock is locked in on.

thinking about scheme, watch out for Jaylon Ferguson.

If we take another edge guy, it could be him in rd 2.

But I think we’ll be taking a TE and either a RB or WR. And i’m Actually leaning more towards a WR, because I think Gruden is pretty happy that we landed Crowell.

I still want defense, but think the offensive value may be too good to pass up.
Fant
Marquise Brown -Tyreek Hill clone
Josh Jacobs
DK Metcalf???? We'll easily be in the top 5 with him in the fold, but will Carr spread the ball around that much with AB on the team?
I'd rather get another defender here if the value is there.

Well we need a TE and running back. Maybe 24 or 27 or top of 2nd rd we do that. I want a formidable defense for once as well. Top ten in O and D in the league would be ideal. So we can start winning 14-10 or 17-14 type games.

You guys all know I banged the table for defense, but how the hell could we pass up Josh Jacobs.

Love his talent
Love his passion
Dude is gonna be a damn stud!!!!
