Leiber is happy.



Tim Cady -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:03:31 PM)

Gladney and Hughes will be interchangeable and great together!



kgdabom -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:04:03 PM)

Gladney it is. Good player. Just a little small.



David Levine -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:04:19 PM)

Good 1st round.

Filled two huge needs with strong value picks.



Chris Olson -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:04:34 PM)

love the Gladney pick! So scrappy and quick and nasty!



Karl Juhnke -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:04:34 PM)

The Zim pick. Threw him a bone.



Steve Lentz -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:04:41 PM)

Kiper likes our draft.
I do too.

And what about the cb we draft next year in Round 1?
Where will he fit in?



kgdabom -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:05:22 PM)

Good day one. We have 12 picks remaining.



The Happy Norseman -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:05:33 PM)

Fantastic! Grab a DT and OG tomorrow.

He's not tall. There's a difference.

Good first round.

Folks, picks 117 and 176 have to be more than 32 (one round) apart, right?

COME ON MAN!

Of course I'm going off Levine's post of what we got [:D]


Early 4th and late 5th

Give me a 3rd instead. Need quality over quantity.


The problem is that the 49ers did not have a 3rd. So, that was not going to happen.

OK, good point. Trade up in 2nd and 3rd!



Mr. Ed -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:05:54 PM)

14 SEC picks in the first round w/one pick left

Good 1st round.

Filled two huge needs with strong value picks.



And got some extra bullets. Time to trade up in the second. Go get Blacklock or an Oline we love.

Overview
Press cover irritant who plays an extremely competitive brand of football from snap to whistle. He has the twitch and route anticipation to stay close. Possesses ball skills to contest a good percentage of throws. His coverage traits should allow him to thrive in man or zone, but his desire to make every play on the ball could lead him into occasional bait-and-switch traps by smart quarterbacks. He's slender so teams will need to decide whether to play him outside or in sub-packages, but no matter where he plays, this ball-hawking alpha has the talent to help his team on all three downs if needed.

Strengths
Combines instincts and urgency in coverage
Excellent hand usage and strength to re-route the release
Zig-zags pedal to stay in front of receiver
Operates with route anticipation
Eye balance between quarterback and receiver
Recognizes high-low route combos from zone
Closing burst for instant bounce and pounce on the ball
Takes playmaking angle on the throw
Sticky in man coverage playing ball over receiver
Snakes in well-timed, play-side arm to bat ball away
Heat-seeking missile as blitzer
Very willing demeanor as tackler

Weaknesses
Slender build with thin hips
Below-average size and length for outside spot
Big bodies put him at a disadvantage
Early hip commitment opens him to double moves
Can lose balance at top of the route when attempting to gather from phase
Inconsistent poise when face guarding downfield
Timed speed may be better than play speed
Waits too long to turn and find football
Gets into position but dropped too many interceptions
Inconsistent angles to tackle

Mel Kiper just gave the Vikings his blessing on their first round performance. So there’s that.



Bill Johanesen -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:06:36 PM)

If someone said this morning we'd have Jefferson and Gladney, an extra 4th, and an extra round not to be named, I'd be like OK!

Gladney is the pick

Seems like good talent. Nice 1st round on paper given what they had to deal with. Expect a couple of trade ups tomorrow.

Plus the other teams interested in Trent Williams grabbed OTs.

Good point.



Pager -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:09:31 PM)

Love will be on the bench for the next two years. Cap hits for Rodgers:

Dead caps:
2020: $51 million
2021: $31.5 million
2022: $17.2 million

Relievers aren’t stupid... please.

Chavous said this morning he is the guy that fits our system.

An underrated feature of our two 1st round picks is that they are both used to wearing purple!!! [:D][:D][:D][:D]



David Levine -> RE: NFL Draft 2020 (4/23/2020 11:09:48 PM)

I know we don't have nearly the traffic that we used to, but its really nice not having the site crash during the draft.

Plus the Packers traded a 4th to move up and take Love.
