Official Day Three of the Draft Thread 2021

Kenny Gainwell still undrafted. Thats a mystery to me.

[RashanGary]

McGinn will have a couple quotes. Some guys body develops a little later. Maybe betting on physical growth.

[sharpe1027]

Seems like a solid player already and that was still developing. About what you'd expect at this point.

This will test the blinders some have for gutebag

You think the last pick was that bad or something? I only know what I just googled on the kid, so I am curious what you think and why.

[RashanGary]

It looks like theyre ok with moving Jenkins out to tackle long term. Theyre loading up inside. Makes sense. It's easier to find centers and guards. If you have a solid tackle on the roster and we probably do with Jenkins, it makes sense to just move him out and fill the inside spots.

Re: Newman! I'll be interested to hear what the personnel department has to say about where they want to try him first. I'd think they'll give him a shot at RT and kick him inside to G if that doesn't work. Don't hate the pick but if he's not a tackle then IDK what they're doing. It feels like they have 2 tackles and 8 guards.
(Maybe they see Jenkins as a tackle prospect eventually. Who knows. I thought they'd try Runyan at T last year -- he was a LT at UM -- but they said on draft day he was a guard so who knows.)

It's about time for another Corner. D. J. Daniel, the third Georgia guy might be good as a slot guy. Wildgoose, the Badger, might be a good project as an outside Corner, but the one I'd really like to see us get is Kary Vincent of L.S.U.

Newman played left guard his junior year and Right Tackle as a senior. Compared him to Billy Turner. Says he won't be the best player in the line but won't be a liability either.

Bakh, Turner and Jenkins can play tackle. I think they’re leaning into that flexibility.

Sorry as I am at a basketball tournament so short time but it sure seems like there were a lot of better players out there.

There goes the lb. Wist is right. Nixon the dot was there as well wasn’t he ?

Yeah, Nixon was there. Carolina took him with pick 158. Dude is a little raw, but he had a hell of a year at Iowa and was the B1G DPOY. I think the Panthers got a real steal taking him in the mid-5th Rd.
