Niners take a RB from Ohio St. when they already have like a million of them.

Falcons took a really young offensive lineman in Mayfield. He is raw but maybe he can be solid in a couple of years. If they are trading back into the 3rd, this is about where.

tre' mckitty?!?!

fantastic name, is that the best one of the draft so far?

That's a wrap. Falcons have 2 picks in the 4th and 3 in the 5th. I would like to see them get Rump out of Duke. There is not a lot of high end outside linebacker talent left. Rump is who I was hoping they would trade up for.

Another possible edge rusher is Quincy Roche out of Miami.

The Mayfield pick might be more ready than I anticipated. Sporting news has a late 1st, early 2nd round grade on him.

68. Atlanta Falcons: Jalen Mayfield, OG, Michigan

Grade: A

The Falcons stopped the fall of this borderline first-round pick with great value in Round 3. Mayfield has the strong, compact frame to boost their run blocking for offensive-minded Arthur Smith. He’s bound to start at left guard next to Jake Matthews.

At least 1 more UCF player should be coming off the board today. Richie Grant went to the Falcons and Aaron Robinson went to the Giants. Tay Gowan going somewhere.

There's 1 guy drafted last night that might have fantasy value- Trey Sermon. Depending on where the 49ers put him on the depth chart.

I just realized that the Texans don't have a pick until the 3rd round.

No matter how bad things get in Dallas, they are always worse in Houston. They don't even have any trash cans to bang on anymore.

Either a WR or CB.

Yes the Hawks lol - why else would I be asking you

Really WR?

Yes, it's a decent receiver class. They don't have a reliable 3rd receiver.

Seattle doesn't even have a reliable second receiver. Lockett is an over rated piece of garbage imho. He'll never see my fantasy team ever again.

missed chauncey gholston being selected by dallas, first hawkeye off the board! congrats!

surprised it wasn't nixon, who seems to be falling. hopefully a handful of hawks get their names called today

Not to distract from this love fest , but I have no idea what cowboys did in rd 2 and 3. I agree on going defense but they should have taken some different players

I agree for the most part. I was hoping to combine our 4th and the 3ird we got from the Egals to move up a bit in the second round to get one of the 3 players I wanted and what the Cowboys wanted as well. it didn't happen as usual. Cowboys for the most part have sucked in the second round during the Jerry Jones era. I personally wanted Teven Jenkins, nevertheless Cowboys have gone all defense so far which is a huge need after last year's results.

Much needed.

Falcons go corner. They need one but man they need a edge rusher to. Maybe this next pick...

Buzzard · Post #298 » by **Buzzard** » Sat May 1, 2021 4:46 pm

Weak defensive pass rush help in this draft was my worry. It looks like the Falcons addressed their needs with BPA. They made picks for corner, safety, and offensive line.

With three picks in the 5th round maybe they can find a diamond in the rough.

Don't know anything about him but ya'll are gunna be fast

Metcalf, Lockett, and this guy are all speed.

I'm just kinda surprised they felt the need to go and draft a WR. I had the same thought for the Cardinals and the Rams.

A little less surprised with the Seahawks than the other 2, but I figured they would dip in free agency and maybe bring back Tate or draft a WR day 3.

The Rams? Wtf? Kupp, Woods, Jefferson, Desean (probably non factor), Higbee is good, Henderson catches the ball. Just a lot of guys.

The Cardinals? I guess Fitz is for sure retired but even still - Hopkins, Green, Kirk, Andy Isabella.. I don't understand this pick at all?

Then surprised my Niners didn't take one at all. Guess they feel good about Hurd finally staying healthy? :banghead:

I like Mond. He fell because of the jumbo fisher effect. If this guy can play a little more looser and feel confident to leave the pocket he is as good as any other qb this year minus Trevor

His play reminds me so much of Colin Kaepernick. Definitely good value (3rd Round).

Still seems weird because Cousins isn't exactly old, and now you probably have a QB controversy if Cousins falters even a little bit.
