Good point they definitely should. But still Harrison, James, and potentially Maye would all be ranked higher.

But but but... Jamal set the record for most sacks in a season for a safety!!!! And his dancing and bravado makes me feel all tingly down by my boxer shorts, that has to be worth at least the #6 spot.

I just wish another developmental OLine prospect was drafted in the 5th or 6th. Saleh definitely needed guys for the 4-3 scheme, especially since our LBers were non existant to run that alignment. But another center or tackle in the later rounds would have been nice.

You could argue that Shanahan and the 49ers liked Darnold but with the way JD was operating, they didn't have the time to wait around and some other team would have beat them to the 3rd pick. I'm sort of bitter though, because I wish Douglas took the trade down and loaded up on draft capital.

Hopefully all this ZW ballwashing doesn't go to waste and this kid turns into a stud QB. I have my doubts but if he's the pick, he has my support.

Much greater chance JD trades down rather than taking a RB @ 23.

With the 23rd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the NY Jets select... Caleb Farley CB Virginia!

Gotta love the posters who somehow knew for certain Wilson was 6"3 7 weeks ago, but scoff at Fields running a 4.4. We all know the times are going to be favorable to the athlete this year. Even a 4.5 is fast for a QB.

Agreed. Seems like every year theres a QB prospect that gets picked apart to death. Fields is the guy this year. Watson, Herbert are other examples. Everyone mentions the amount of hate Wilson recieves as a prospect but Fields was the 1B to Lawrence and now he doesn't even get a mention. His draft trajectory has been insane.

Definitely no conflict of interest there.

Let the speculation continue!!!

I think this is a harsh take. Lawson got 8.5 sacks as a rookie, got hurt his 2nd year and had lower sack totals but high pressure rates his 3rd and 4th year. He's only 25 so i don't see why there wouldn't be a chance for him to get 8.5 or even 10 sacks. Maybe not 12 sacks but he should be an impact player. A poor mans Shaq Barrett.

Is there a player in recent memory that misplayed FA as much as Clowney has?

Not a fan of this signing. Especially after missing out on all the Guards. But better than nothing i guess, certainly needed and still need WR help. Money better spent would be to sign 2 passrushers now and just focus on Offense in the draft. Hendrickson/Lawson would be nice but from how Douglas seems to operate, highly unlikely.

Dupree is a 3-4 OLB, hes probably athletic enough to pull off playing DE in a 4-3, but i'd rather just go for the natural 4-3 DE. Okwara, Hendrickson, Derek Barnett. All would be much better fits.
