You do realize that we also have the 34th pick right? There will be plenty of quality IOL around 10 picks later. In fact I would hope we pick another OL in the 3rd or even 4th rounds but we can get a starter quality OG at 34. My only caveat is if Creed Humphrey is there at 23, I might have to take him. We put him at C, move McGovern to G and fix two positions with one draft pick... Otherwise, Wyatt Davis at 34 or a similar graded OG works for me. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think more so for Humphreys because he can play Center and Guard and Move McGovern to G. I truly believe we can find similar quality to Jenkins and AVT at 34, but they go that route I totally understand it. Also for the record Moore is not "slot guy" he is all purpose weapon with blazing speed and quickness that can be used all over the field (including hte slot) and on special teams. He is the kind of "difference maker" every team wants. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know who FG talks to, but it's not from JD's lips to his ears. I'm sure there's a variety of scenarios being explored; eg trade threshold for Waddle (if falls to spot X - we make a move)... same with AVT etc Personally i don't think we should be trading up for anyone, and I don't think Joe will.... 3 of positions we're short on (IOL, DBs, DE) will be in heavy supply on day 2... i'd rather trade back then up. The two WRs we were least linked to, were Davis and Cole.... the two WRs we signed, were Davis and Cole. Safe to say JD has his own agenda he doesn't share. I would assume the same for draft rumors. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is why I traditionally write more nuanced posts lol... The internal debate is not Moore vs. Toney. It's fundamental talent evaluation. Joe Douglas starts from the ground up. Foot-speed is one of his one of the most important factors in the evaluation. From there a bunch of other things are considered, but it's not to say that he won't "like" a player whose on the smaller side, rather, he'll shy away from players perceived to be risks. Unlike Macc, he's not a "BPA" type. He's going to draft players at positions of need, but he'll prioritize premium positions first (OT/DE). For WRs, he's not big on drafting them early unless they're a HWS guy with the ability to develop into a complete, explosive WR. He has a "type", and that type is 6'2"-6'3", 215. That doesn't mean he has threshold cutoffs like some other teams do, but he's less likely to invest a higher draft pick in some of the players that are less traditionally sized. For example, RB Donnell Pumphrey was a Joe Douglas pick. He wanted the player. Pumphrey was a 5'7", 170 lb. RB. But he played tough and had the baseline qualities Douglas looks for (fast feet, play strength, competitiveness, and speed). That said, Joe wasn't taking Pumphrey in round 1 or 2 regardless if he was touted as the next great RB... it's just not how he does business. Lack of size, warranted or not, is a risk, and he will try to mitigate as many risks as possible when selecting someone early. The coaching staff sees things differently. Enter Jaylen Waddle, Kadarius Toney, and Ronalde Moore. Mike LaFleur and Miles Austin have privately gushed over these guys. There are plenty of personnel people who think highly of them as well. Some in the organization want the team to trade up for Waddle, others want Toney as a fallback, and then there's a group who are extremely pro-Moore (Joe included). However, just because you like a player does not mean you're prepared to invest premier assets in said player. Joe being Joe, I don't think he'll even consider drafting Moore anytime before the 3rd round because of his size limitations. If he did, that would mean he's throwing a massive bone to the coaching staff, who don't care about how tall he is. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
