Official 2019 Draft

[kdp1980]

Weber, Higdon, or Scott are all Big Ten running backs I would have rather seen taken before Ty Johnson. Gross. Wonder what they like about him?

Fulgham is unknown to me. Reads like a big possession WR in what limited reports I've read in the last 10 minutes.

I'd like to see them take Holyfield over all those guys, he plays way quicker than his 40 shows

 

[sggatecl]

I just wanted to point something out as I'm going over the entire draft since a lot of us seem to be shitting on Quinn pretty hard:

The Lions moved up in the 3rd to get Will Harris and gave up a sixth. Then in the 4th they moved down by swapping with Atlanta and acquiring a 6th of theirs. That sixth was 18 slots better than the one they have up to move up and get Harris. Seems like a pretty shrewd move.

Sorry if this was mentioned already, I just thought it was worth sharing.

I wouldn't argue with that, I was just referring to Big Ten guys, let alone the rest of the field. Holyfield might be the best on the board at this point.

I wonder what Kris Boyd did to turn teams off? I saw him mocked in round 3-4 a lot.

Agreed, outside of returning kicks, I don't know what they saw in the rb they chose. He won't make the practice squad

Big strong possession receiver. Might be our new Anquan Boldin
https://youtu.be/0SnNaWyYvqI

Between him, Hockenson, Golladay, and James...Stafford is going to have some big targets to throw to. Can't really argue with that strategy.

Not sure if this team will put up too many big plays but they definitely should be able to move the chains consistently.

 

[inkfreq]

I've actually seen Nuata play quite a bit, the wife being a Bulldogs fan, and he's a very good receiver who runs some clean routes. Not much of a blocker though, and in my opinion undersized for an NFL tight end.

Holy shit they just took yet another TE in rd 7

Man fulgham uses his hands well.

 

[inkfreq]

I?ll certainly hope not

They just said he was 244 pounds, but I remember all last season they were saying he was around 225-230, so that's his playing wieght. And he plays a lot bigger than he is.

But I always thought he looked more like a WR to me.

 

[mhughes0021]

That's a big dude...
