Official day 3 of the 2023 NFL draft thread

[RashanGary]

I hate hate hate the Sean Clifford pick. I know he had a visit with GB but thought it was as a UDFA recruiting thing, not a R5 pick.
Oh, BTW he's actually OLDER than JLove, so maybe he's the veteran backup QB.

I guess if it saves them money spent on a useless horrible backup QB in the FA it's maybe worth it, but I thought there were better options available.

I’ve never been less inspired than when I read that scouting report. My gf was giving me head while I was reading through that report. The wind was sucked right out of my sails and I started crying. It really wrecked my day.

The Colby Wooden pick is a weird one also. Not sure how he fits. Is he a big EDGE? A DLineman? I'm not sure.

Welp, per the Packers:

On where Wooden will play: "We're gonna play him at defensive tackle. He's a defensive tackle, big end type. Big, powerful ... he can definitely play (tackle). He's got the frame to carry what he needs to play D-tackle."

They certainly need bodies there, and dude is super athletic. Undersized, but if he can get to 290+ and not lose much athleticism he has some upside. I guess he's the Dean Lowry replacement? At least he's got long arms and can run.

The Dontayion Wicks pick isn't bad. He's athletic and his 2021 tape is good. 2022 UVA had a new coach and an abysmal offense.
Wicks has some drops concerns but that can often (not always) be fixed. He has some upside and R5 WR is a lotto ticket.

Hero post of the day

[run pMc]

Yeah, a lot to unpack in that one.

[smuggler]

I thank God every day we don't have Stoneburner on the team.

[Sparkey]

Seems like they are leaning towards quick, penetrating disrupter types instead of big ole space eaters.

6th rounder Brooks looks more like a DT on paper, 6-3, 300 lbs. Probably a dev guy since he played in the MAC. Rushed off the edge some. Still looking for the new Keith McKenzie?

Your girlfriend was giving you head and you were reading a report?

Hmm, head seems to have changed since I was a young man..

Karl Brooks is an interesting pick. Standup rusher at 300 pounds, I'd assume he's playing DT for them. Like I said with Wooden, they needed bodies at DL, but it's a curious pick. I haven't looked at him at all, I'll have to go back and watch him.
He's apparently very good at pass rushing so they are adding that to the DL. Not much emphasis on stopping the run, but I guess they already have the bit NT types with guys like Slaton and Johnathon Ford.

[run pMc]

Have to think they take a look at S soon.

[RashanGary]

Wicks has the James Jones profile

[MadScientist]

At least they traded down to get a kicker, not up. Still would rather they just signed Parker Romo from San Antonio in the XFL.

[smuggler]

Carlson has the pedigree, but man it is going to feel bad if this is JK Scott again.

[Bretsky]

You’ll be hard pressed to find an uglier scouting report. And this Nigga so white, it’s blinding. I don’t know if I’ve ever been more sure that a guy was a failure on day one than I am with this guy. Ugh.

This is the guy that got us on the board RG; not hare to see why GB drafted him.

High RAS and they had him in for interviews and he probably killed it interview wise
Great Community guy even when in college with no money...he was giving up his time while being a QB at Penn State with Big Brothers and Sisters and other good foundations
And very intelligent guy who understands the game with a great attitude. He's a backup QB

No more shitbags to cheer for at QB

I thought GB would draft him, but....maybe not quite so soon
