    View: https://twitter.com/JohnALimberakis/status/1637570670845362178?s=20 Overall: He isn’t good in coverage and he won’t be a scheme fit for everyone but if you want a downhill attacker and you like to blitz or rush your ILBs this is your guy. When he is attacking downhill he either blows up...

    Probably not, no. And making 14 picks is a little much. What I’m trying to do is show fits in ranges. I’ll start making tiers soon as well. Day 1 OTs, Day 2 OTs, Day 3 OTs etc.

    I really like this one. I traded back with Buffalo and got their 27, 59, 91, and 130 + a 2024 4th rounder for pick 14. I went: 27) Darnell Wright, OT 46) Jack Campbell, ILB 59) Keeanu Benton, IDL 76) Isaiah McGuire, IDL/Edge 91) A.T. Perry, WR 107) Luke Schoonmaker, TE 117) Michael Wilson, WR...

    Noah Sewell is a day 3 thumper fit. ILB is really thin though and aside from Campbell there are no high end or even day 2 fits. Weak ILB class.

    Which made him signing that extension super weird right? Just an overall bizarre situation.

    You are probably right. I do wonder though what Hopkins market is and what that price tag is as well. I still think it’s probably a 2nd and I don’t think I want them to pay it. There’s too many good draft fits imo.

    NFL Free Agency Game Thread: Rumors! News! Uneducated Guesses!

    With Cooks it was a really steep contract. I really don’t get what Houston is doing. You want a QB and you’re going to give him basically nothing to work with. Maybe you can get Hopkins for a 3rd in this market but I don’t see why Arizona would do that unless they think they are in rebuild mode.

    Re: his range, @Bowser put it this way the man ain’t no 4-3 Will but he’s more than ok for the Patriots scheme and his route anticipation and recognition in zone as well as his processing and 10 yard split is fantastic for what they ask for their Mikes. Keep in mind guys like TJ Hockenson ran a...

    I wouldn’t mind him there for sure. Honestly wouldn’t mind him at the back of the first if they trade back and then trade up from 46.

    A 4.65 is fine and honestly it doesn’t matter much. The much more important number is his ridiculous 1.58 10 yard split. That’s nasty. You very rarely have to run more than 20 yards as a linebacker. His top end speed is satisfactory but his true on field speed is great. It’s even faster when you...

    Soooo I just made a bunch of updates. This guy is fucking legit. He’s absolutely a fit and I post a video of his one handed interception. I can’t stress how good he is. I feel like it would probably disappoint folks to take an ILB high but this guy is a game changer.

    I’ll update that thread as I go through him vs Ohio State. Folks he is excellent in zone coverage too! He is finally a complete linebacker who can cover and stop the run!

    I know probably no one is thinking off-ball linebacker early but holy smokes is Jack Campbell a fit. He’s a 9.98 RAS too: super athlete at almost 250 pounds! Where are the cutups, John? I was told there would be cake and cutups! Ok ok you got me. No cake but here are some highlights: View...

    Like Keion White quite a bit. Definitely a fit here. Dexter is so raw. He’s a freak and body beautiful but he struggles in every aspect of the game and his technique is generally garbage. White is a power specialist. He is already good against the run and as a pass rusher his bullrush really...

    Gesicki signs with Pats

    When you look at the teams who ran the most 10 in 2021 (we don’t have 2022 data) it was the Cardinals, Bills, and Jets. 4 receiver sets work well if you have a running QB. You lose a lot in the running game because you don’t have a TE blocker. If your QB can run it’s a lot more viable. HT...

    Gesicki signs with Pats

    @Eddie Jurak is right imo. Harris was more of a one cut and go guy and a cutback artist. Stevenson was a little more patient and someone who used his power and shiftiness well.

    There are only a handful of decent blocking in-line tight ends this year. 1 is Darnell Washington who is a good player but is probably never going to be an adequate route runner. He’s basically the high end version of Jonnu Smith. That’s valuable but for where he is going to go isn’t an...

    Just a reminder that Bryce Ford-Wheaton is a high character special teams demon so even if he never develops more he will upgrade things as a gunner. Great pick especially at 183.

    I love Schoonmaker btw. He is a guy I will be much higher on than consensus. Dawand Jones to me isn’t a fit. Bill typically doesn’t draft guys who are not that athletic at OT. Now he will sign and trade for them but only after they have proven they can play. Dawand is also a super inconsistent...

    Gesicki signs with Pats

    Yes and no. Henry really isn’t a good blocker. You could go nickel and it wouldn’t make a difference. You aren’t going to lure them into base with those two. We were just having this conversation in the slack. He’s an incredible gap runner and he’s a fit. I’d hate to use 14 on an RB though.
