NFL Draft News and Rumors: Demand Outstrips Supply at the Center Spot

In our latest NFL Draft news and rumors, what is the latest we're hearing about Joe Tippmann, John Michael Schmitz, and Luke Wypler?

[Retroram52]

I agree ALR. Tippman may go before either Shultz or the kid from Ohio State. The Rams should snap him-up. He is a better Ragnow and he may be better than the Center we passed on to take the little turd 2.0 in the now famous Atwell debacle.

Damn good one shopson!

Damn good one shopson!

Of course, as soon as I did it the Rams opened up a sizeable starting WR hole, lol.

 

[Retroram52]

Yeah but now I am quite sure we will see McCutcheon playing significant minutes this year

I'd bet on McVay getting a starter in the draft though. Cutch more likely a 4th receiver?

 

[shopson67]

On PFN (one trade down in the 2nd to add a 4th. Can we just sign up for this and skip draft day?

• 36. John Michael Schmitz, OC Minnesota
• 69. Derick Hall, EDGE Auburn
• 87. Matthew Bergeron, OT Syracuse
• 119. Jonathan Mingo, WR Ole Miss
• 167. Tyjae Spears, RB Tulane
• 171. Garrett Williams, CB Syracuse
• 177. Will Mallory, TE Miami (FL)
• 182. Colby Wooden, DT Auburn
• 189. YaYa Diaby, EDGE Louisville
• 223. Shaka Heyward, LB Duke
• 234. Tyson Bagent, QB Shepherd
  
  
  

 

[Retroram52]

I'd take Tippmann over Schmitz and I'd get Zavaka in there somewhere.

 

[shopson67]

I'd take Tippmann over Schmitz and I'd get Zavala in there somewhere.

Not sure where Zavala fell, but he wasn't in my plans once I took a C and Bergeron (who can move inside to guard at first) early. I'm guessing he fell in the 3rd/4th gap or 4th/5th gap. Was surprised to get Schmitz, since I've seen him projected to the 1st a bit lately. Tippman may be more realistic.

 

[shopson67]

It's weird who slides in some of these mock simulators. Tried to go BPA within reason after Kancey slid this time. Zavala fit this one.

• 40. Calijah Kancey, DT Pittsburgh
• 74. Drew Sanders, LB Arkansas
• 77. Matthew Bergeron, OT Syracuse
• 115. Zack Kuntz, TE Old Dominion
• 126. Roschon Johnson, RB Texas
• 167. Kei'Trel Clark, CB Louisville
• 171. Chandler Zavala, OG NC State
• 177. Rakim Jarrett, WR Maryland
• 182. Brenton Cox Jr., EDGE Florida
• 189. Juice Scruggs, OC Penn State
• 223. Daniel Scott, S California

That one is Excellent Shopson! I would hope the shitfirbrains twins would do something like this!!

The rankings on PFN are so different from what I was getting used to on PFF that I don't know which site to believe lol. PFF's tool was free until the last few weeks, now it's limited to 3 rounds, no trades, etc.

 

[Retroram52]

Those places are always looking to make money off of their so-called ratings and analyses. Sort of like Mel Kiper Jr.

 

[shopson67]

Bored at work, so here's another one (more BPA than needs early). Focused beyond next season with 2 currently injured players (Vorhees, Garrett Williams), much more talented than their draft position here:

• 36. Dalton Kincaid, TE Utah
• 69. Rashee Rice, WR SMU
• 100. Zach Harrison, EDGE Ohio State
• 109. Daiyan Henley, LB Washington State
• 167. Andrew Vorhees, OG USC
• 171. Garrett Williams, CB Syracuse
• 177. Juice Scruggs, OC Penn State
• 182. Trey Dean, S Florida
• 189. YaYa Diaby, EDGE Louisville
• 191. Aidan O'Connell, QB Purdue
• 223. Evan Hull, RB Northwestern

 

[Retroram52]

A lot of pundits agree with you Shopson unless the Rams take Hendon Hooker with Pick 36 or trade down to get Hooker and say Kincaid in the Second Round. These same pundits are really beginning to suggest that Snead will trade down for a later 2nd Rounder and a second, 2nd Rounder to take either Kincaid and Hooker or add the EDGE McDonald to the mix.
