The Official 2017 NFL Offseason/Draft Thread

[King_MOEbra]

We need EVERYTHING in the 1st Round.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

I want Watson but if Garrett can drop to 3 TAKE HIM

Nigga I fully co-sign this. I miss the draft being a whole weekend thing. I use to wake up on Saturday morning charged for that shit. This prime time shit is cool, but I miss that all day Saturday and Sunday action.

 

[lord nemesis]

If Cook slip to 19 it would be hard to pass on him. But I say if one of the top 3 offensive tackles are there go with that and take Mixon in round 2

 

[Shizlansky]

Trade up New Orleans.

We need a real leader on defense

@Stew @BDBIID are we still running the weak ass 3-4 defense that we haven't truly had the personnel to run for the last 7 years???

LOL Manusky ran a 3-4 in his previous DC stints so imagine we stay the same which is why I'm hoping we go after the best DL available at the top of the draft. Shit has been so stagnant since we switched.

Bruh!!! When we ran the 4-3 in the early/mid 2000's we stayed having top tier solid ass defenses. I've said since 2010 that we're running a defense that doesn't fit our strengths. I want a good D lineman, but I want our secondary and LB play to improve as well. If Reuben Foster or Dalvin Cook, or Hooker from Ohio state slide to us I would pissed if we didn't take him. ESPN had us taking some nigga from Missouri that I had never heard of a D lineman. I really just want us to take the best player available.

 

[moyo]

I also would love for us to trade up in the 2nd round and snatch Adoree Jackson. Get some playmaking and explosiveness in our secondary and special teams.

I've been wanting the 'Skins to change back to the 4-3 for years. Other than some select standouts we've never had consistency with that scheme. I agree they need to go best player available for this draft.

I agree and I think a lot of that had to do with Gregg Williams(nvm his stop at NO), Gibbs gave him full control over the Defense and he made the best out of it with the slightly above avg talent that we had. I like Manusky demeanor and most players seem to like it to so I hope that counts for somethin. Bruh, we had the worst 3rd down % in modern day history, it's not a secret our defense was trash, it's a must they address it.

 

[moyo]

Between our 3rd down defense and our red zone offense, the shit had me bout to throw my phone and slap somebody last season. Difference between 8-7-1, and 11-5 and a playoff spot...

 

[HustleThaDon]

Texans gon either trade up for Watson or Mahomes

Or stay put and draft an offensive lineman

What if OJ Howard is BPA at 17? @moyo

Iirc Manusky said something about base would be your normal 3-4 but not being rigid and having some 3-4 under which is basically a 43 at times especially in nickel and dime

 

[thegreatunknown]

I've been watching some of this draft coverage in between finals...I have couple of questions for you all. Can anyone here explain why:

1. Trubinsky is so highly rated, especially compared to Watson?

2. Why is McCaffery rated higher on many draft boards than Dalvin Cook?

3. Is it just me? But I have the feeling that Garrett is a bust waiting to happen

I'm just curious of your opinions on this, as many of you seem to be fairly knowledgeable about this..

 

[D. Morgan]

Give me a DE or LB in the 1st round please

This!!!

 

[D. Morgan]

@Stew you know I ain't a skins fan but I'm hyped for that Thanksgiving day night game!

Feel like the atmosphere is going to be crazy
