Harry is a big strong kid who fights and wins battles in the air.

One of his highlight films I did see a lot of pushing off. NE will need to work on that or the rookie likely gets a lot of OPI calls going against him.

Scale of 1-10, I give it a solid 8.5
can't wait for day 2, BB has all options open to him.

Everyones happy for the most part at this point.

BUT HELL YEAH. if we wanted a LB we had to move up. THeres people that have called d. bush the best pound for pound player in this draft.

We needed a side to side, coverage ILB to replace shazier. THis dude flys and loves to hit. We gave iup a 2nd and 3rd to move up for him, but to jump to a top 10 pick i dont think thats crazy. I also love how its 1 pick this year, 1 pick next year.

Granted we need TE help, CB help and losing those picks hurt. BUt this was our BIGGEST need.

Steelers dont trade up, really ever. we trade back. They only trade up if they think they have an exceptional or generational talent. Last time they did, they got Troy Polamalu. I hope they're right.

Good pick in a draft with not many quality ILB.

Still lots of 1st round talent out there. BB is the same almost never moves up. I hope he goes for Irv Smith or Sternberger.

I'm not thrilled with the Colts. Traded back 20 spots for a 2nd rounder next year.
Ballard has earned my trust, but I still don't like it.

Eh so so with Seattle. I think Collier was 100% a replacement for Michael Bennett which Malik McDowell was supposed to be (but the ATV accident) but I think Seattle could've had him with the 37th they acquired from NY Giants. I think there was a reach, but he fits what Seattle does defensively. IMO he's not a Clark replacement... more of a Bennett replacement, which was needed because our run defense was ATROCIOUS last year and I think losing Bennett was a big part of that. Collier stuffs the run well from what I've read (didn't watch the guy).

Probably give it a C grade. Good fit, good player, did not need to be a 1st (or early 2nd) rounder. That's Seattle for you though. Outside of 2010 basically every 1st round pick they use gets a shitty "WTF TOO EARLY!" grade.

I do like acquiring 3 extra 4th round picks out of the trade downs though. 5 picks was just not enough. 8 picks with all of them being 5th round or earlier is solid.

When you get arguably the best prospect at a position of need, it's a no brainer.

49ers are still gonna blow

I did not fathom how ANYONE had that team 10-6 or 11-5 last year (which a lot of people did). Their front 4 on paper should be great. Ford/Bosa/Bucker/Armstead/JJ, but outside of that their secondary and linebacker group suck ass. And I'm not sold at all on Jimmy Gpappoerololol. Could see that turning out just like Matt Cassel. "He was Tom Brady's backup omdsfomagogimfoi!!!! Yep... and the Pats were happy to trade him."

Also getting rid of Reuben Foster was absolutely retarded. If he was still on the team, maybe I give them a slight nod on the D side.

Atlanta drafted two offensive linemen. I have never seen either of them play and I don't know anything about them.

I would've preferred Q Williams but I'm still pretty stoked with Bosa.

Bosa, Armstead/Thomas, Buckner, and Ford on paper make for a pretty fearsome group upfront and it's a pretty dramatic upgrade in pass rush. Which is a bonus considering the NFC West's offensive lines aren't considered the most stout of groups.

I'm happy with Frank Clark because this draft is a minefield.

technically, we only lost 2 picks. we swapped 1st rd picks with denver.

No, the Lions have proven once again that they will continue to be the Lions. Just fucking moronic.

Harry is a big strong kid who fights and wins battles in the air.

One of his highlight films I did see a lot of pushing off. NE will need to work on that or the rookie likely gets a lot of OPI calls going against him.

Harry was a good choice. When they were lining Gronk up outside 24/7 because they had no huge threat, I was like, "Hmm, Pats could use someone a little big on the outside." lol. Harris is 6'3" but he's not what I'd call a BIG target. Harry is like 225 lbs... at 6'2". I don't see him getting bullied by many corners.
