Game Thread: Thee 2022 nfl draft

[Sharkonabicycle]

Ogbonnia was a sleeper talent. He'll do very well in the NFL.

Agreed, and I also think the Chargers are trying to make up for missing Jordan Davis. I 100% believe they were targeting him and Philly snuck in there. The Chargers have an absolutely abysmal rush defense... they had to do something at some point... better late than never. I just wonder if it'll be enough. Their draft has been a little suspect. I certainly wouldn't be happy as a Chargers fan.

The Jags made a pick to win the division? WHAT!?

Eh I remember joining a conference call drunk.

Take Walker ya dumbasses.

He did caveat it saying "This isn't the NFCW"

Rams traded-up with the Raiders and they take a real small RB from Notre Dame. The effin' idiot McVay is doing this small shit again and appraently didn't learn a damn thing from the fiasco of Atwell last year!

Rams traded up....for Kyren Williams (RB, Notre Dame)? Meh

 

[Manster7588]

Take Walker ya dumbasses.

Damn, sorry.

 

[shopson67]

Does that mean Sony isn't coming back? Not thrilled with those circumstances.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Kyren is likely to be solid for McVays offense.... decent receiver out of the backfield. Hope Seattle coaches up their linebackers this season....

Trade up is a little suspect... but it's a good player fit for the Rams.

I tell ya Shopson. I am so tired of McVay taking these small players while by-passing talented bigger players and letting a guy like Michel flop in the wind. If you are going to rebuild your running game, what on the freakin planet are you doing finding these high school-size players for cryin-out-loud. Pisses me right off and I what knock the shit out of McVay.

RBs have been coming off, so to get him I guess it makes some sense for the fit, but just not sold on the need.

I suppose they could trade Henderson and keep Michel?

Defense

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

OOOOOOOOH that's a solid pick by the Bengals. Easy A+ grade IMO.

 

[Retroram52]

Here is the trade. I can't believe McSnead would trade-up for this guy.

The Raiders traded their sole fifth-round pick at No. 164 to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for Pick 175 (fifth round) and 238 (seventh round). The Silver and Black first acquired the 164th pick from the New England Patriots.

The Rams were one of the worst rushing offenses in the league last year. You guys were bottom 10 in yards per carry. That's not necessarily terrible giving your pass oriented coach, but Kyren supports that massively.

Hopefully I'm not coming off like a dick, not my intent.

Pretty good pick by Chicago.... Braxton Jones is a solid pickup this late.

They also were without their starting RB until the end of the season, but he's back now. Kyren is likely a 3rd down RB at most.

You guys are going for another Superbowl.. you need a 3rd down RB and one that is a receiving threat. That's your window.

I'd rather have seen more help in the trenches, but they were likely to add an RB this draft.
