jamesr Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 OK, so who is your biggest reach of Rd 1 / who's your biggest steal? REACH - I'm going with Eli Apple; a lot of people thought he'd be a reach for us at 20, G-Men took him at 10. Cue the predictable headlines about "Big Apple" ... STEAL - loathed to say it, but Miami made out like bandits with Tunsil dropping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinstar Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Eli Apple is a Revis clone and far from a reach . Fish made out like bandits, but I'm not sure that Miami is the best place for that kid . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raideraholic Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Reach - Karl Joseph. Ss was the biggest need for the Raiders , and there was no way he would have made it to there second round pick. Still he probably went a little early than he should have. Probably figure they can still get the defense lineman in the second round. Steal- Tunsil That was great luck for the Dolphins that he dropped to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Reach - Elliot to Dallas - you have the best OL in the league. Any RB should be able to eat behind that line. You dont go wasting top 5 picks on an irrelevant position. They better be next generation type talent. Steal - Tunsil to the Dolphags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Apple is not a reach. Phins did get a great potential talent, the "steal" part is TBD and depends on the kid and how he moves forward. He dumps the juvie stuff, it's a likely huge steal. He gets suspended as a rookie, and heads down the Manziel path of delinquency, not so much. Far too early to say (as always).

While widely regarded as a top level talent, the pick seems to go completely against what the Cowboys have been doing for years now, building a dominant OL and you can plug just about any RB behind them to find great success. Very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even us Gators fans who got to watch him. He's fun, he's exciting, he's fast and he hits hard. But never, ever, did I think i was watching a 1st round talent.

STEAL - loathed to say it, but Miami made out like bandits with Tunsil dropping That was my 2 right off the bat. When you get a guy who could have gone #1 overall at 13 or whatever, that's a steal. And seriously, he smoked pot in college and took money, and then told the truth about it. Wow, a guy smoking pot in college, I shudder at the thought. Good he gets slapped now, and slap some sense into him, that's a steal for the Fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luck of RBs. They were hell bent on Bosa though. But after the SD pick, it was either Ramsey or EZ. Ramsey is more of a safety n I'm not sure you go S with the 4th overall pick. If a scrub behind that OL can look like Demarco, imagine what a Luck-like prospect can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd Gurley, Melvin Gordon, Trent Richardson, Doug Martin, David Wilson, Mark Ingram, CJ Spiller, Ryan Mathews, Jahvid Best. lol It's a bad pick. I could keep going. And they'd all be pathetic except for one year when AP and Beast mode went in the first. RB's in the first, in recent history, are a disaster.

k-met57 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Elliott is a perfect example of a guy who was a "first round pick" 2 months ago, then become a top 15 pick, then became a top 10 pick, then became the 4th pick. The hype machine catapulted him into the pick where he got drafted not the football reasons. he seems to me like a really safe pick, he will block, catch, run inside, etc... but he is not a game changer like Gurley could be, like AP was, etc... and i would argue you dont take a RB in the top 5 in todays NFL anyways...3-4 years ago you had good running backs falling out of the 1st, last year RB's made a comback...this could be the pick that pushed people back into not drafting RB's high. all this, and not to mention that the cowboys have a dominant line...and should be able to make due without spending the 4th pick on a RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
