Who Should TT Draft At #33?

[Cheesehead Craig]

He's trading down, then he's going to take Bowser.

I'm betting TT does some deals (yes, plural) and walks away from the 2nd Rnd with King or Awuzie and Kamara or Mixon. He'll draft an OG and a DL with the extra picks he gets from the deals. Our pass rush guy at this point might end up being Derek Rivers, who is pretty darn good.

DE ... DEREK RIVERS YOUNGSTOWN ST. MISSOURI VALLEY ......Draft Grade @ 5.55.

OLB ...TYUS BOWSER ...HOUSTON AAC .... Draft Grade @ 5.86

I am now and finally no longer emotionally invested in our Ted Thompson Draft.

Ted is simply into his own world. That world is nothing like the world that the Draft Analysts make available for us.

I wish we had a guy that would trade up 1 spot to draft a bust QB. He could even give up 2 3rd round picks and a 4th. THAT would be awesome.

[woodbuck27]

Chidobe Awuzie, Tim Williams, Forrest Lamp, or Calvin Cook.

I'd say Cook first - if they're okay with the character issues. That's a big if though.

RB....DALVIN COOK ....FLORIDA ST. ACC .... Draft Grade is a High 6.28

Big character concerns with Cook. This isn't Ted's guy.

Neither is this Ted's Guy:

RB..JOE MIXON....OKLAHOMA BIG 12 Draft Grade @ 6.05

and your point with this post is?

I did NOT criticize Ted's decision to trade down.

Neither is Tim Williams Ted's guy. I think our next RB's first name rhymes with Dalvin.

I like Bowser. If you watch his video tape, you're impressed with his speed, athleticism, strength and wingspan. I just don't know if TT can get Bowser and Kamara and King/Awusie.

[BZnDallas]

I'd like a trade down then draft Bowser/King/Rivers. Then Mixon/Awuzi/Wilson at 61.

Either way we're gonna get a couple of quality players.

How will Ted sleep at night knowing this?

Teds not the only one.

When in danger, when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.

[Deputy Nutz]

There are about 3 or 4 corners still available with a second grade without reaching. I agree with McGinn that there simply not enough depth at the position to sustain any kind of legitimate pass defense in 2017.

[RashanGary]

I think Joe Mixon is the best player left in the draft. He has one incidence. He punched a woman in the face when he was 18. I punched my sister in the face when I was 14, she was bigger than me at the time and 15. But regardless, I kept punching her and damn near killed her. I didn't know my strength. He was 18, felt rejected and hurt, she came at him and he dropped her.

I don't see a bad person. I see a fragile person who didn't know how to be responsible for that strong body of his just yet. Everyone is going to regret passing on him. Punching a woman in the face at 18 isn't that bad. If he kept having incidents, that would be bad, but he didn't. He's good. He learned.

Trade down again and pick up another 4th

[gbgary]

ted was all about "meat" in his presser so that just leaves Malik McDowell.

there's no figuring ted. give up.

I agree except for using a 2nd rounder on a HB....want defense with both picks.

my guess is mixon goes with one of the first few picks tonight

[Maxie the Taxi]

Mixon, Kamara, even Cook...not a lot of difference to worry about. They are basically part of a committee back there with Monty anyway. My wife's a die-hard Florida State fan, so I've seen a lot of Cook. I don't understand his combine numbers. The guy is money...at least on the field. He's quick and can break tackles. Whether he's fast enough to win the edge in the NFL? I don't know. I do know that if I was TT I'd have a hard time passing him up.

That said, Kamara's the safe choice and the Pack seems to like "safe."

[call_me_ishmael]

I would bet my shirt that TT trades down again with the first pick, maybe 5 spots, and then maybe even trades-up from the second pick to ~15 in the second round.

He takes a pass rusher and a CB. I think he will get Mixon in the third.
