If we could find a team to trade up big time in the 2nd, I wouldn’t mind going TE. Think it would be dumb to keep both Maxx & Ertz.

R1. Zion Johnson
R2. Jeremy Ruckert
R3. Alec Pierce

Go straight defense after that.

I'd be ok with Jordan Davis in the 1st. We need to improve our run defense, and he's as good as it gets in that area.

I love him. I want OL or WR or Edge but if the right guys aren't there and Davis is I'm happy still

Under the terms of the collective bargaining agreement college players get into the NFL by being drafted or by being subject to the draft and not being drafted, in which case a player is a free agent.

But it is not possible to "opt out" of the draft for the purpose of choosing which club you want to play for. That's not permitted under the system negotiated between the NFL and NFLPA.

No draft. No NFL.
The combine would have to be bargained for. The NFL cannot unilaterally impose the combine on them.

I wish Davis would have done the bench press.
I told you he broke the combine.

He actually wasn't a big weight guy when he got to Georgia but was good by the time he left. I don't think anybody questioned his strength so he had nothing to gain by lifting

I like Ruckert, but thats way too early.
PFF mock draft sim

R1. Green
R2. Kenneth Walker
R3. Pierce

If I had taken Olave then I would have went Ruckert 3rd round . However, he wont go 2nd round.

How was this dude not a combination of peak Sapp/Wilfork at the college level?

There's no way Davis falls to us but a man can dream. Just like I dreamt about Jaycee Horn

Ruckert won’t make it to our 3rd round pick. He’ll probably go early 3rd round.

he was a great player on a defense with multiple guys who will be playing in the NFL for years. Their front 7 was amazing

Walker likely first rounder, Davis probably first round, Jalen Carter will be a first rounder eventually, Wyatt will play in the NFL for years they have a couple of backups who will be really good.

Dean is an NFL LB, I think Nolan Smith plays in the NFL, they have a couple of others too. There's a reason they won the NC

Watch out folks, today you will get to watch the ultimate Steve Keim type of player: Michigan Safety Daxton Hill. The words to describe Hill will make Stevie just melt: multiple, hybrid, could change position in NFL from safety to corner. An anonymous NFC scout (probably ours) said that teams will definitely consider Hill a super athletic cornerback prospect. Hill will be just too much for our GM
to resist. He will justify the pick because Hill was a top 5 player on their board. We fans will be throwing things at the TV when teams after us select players we covet.

Senior Bowl work outs tell me a lot more. You see guys matched up against each other that will actually be playing each other in the NFL. Those are pretty revealing.

Hamilton is going top 10 for sure.

But if he is there at 23 I wouldnt hate it. We would just have to have 3 safeties on the field
