2022 Official Bolts Draft Superthread

[beachcomber]

I stand corrected!!

Personally, my WR ranking go something like this:
1A: Jameson Williams
1B: Treylon Burks
2A: Jahan Dotson
2B: Drake London
3. Garrett Wilson
4. Chris Olave
5. David Bell

do you have Garrett Wilson >> Jermaine Johnson ??

are you looking/thinking lineman/front 7 over wideout ??

Kevin Harris ran through the Tar Heels like prime George Rogers.

Top 3 RB if he’s fully healthy again. He had back surgery in the spring I believe.

Those were just my WR rankings. But yeah, I’d probably take JJIII over Garrett Wilson. The only WRs I’d take over JJIII is Jameson and Burks.

it has always caught my attention w/how peoples claim Lombardi orchestrates some version of the Saints/Payton scheme, but then the question looms.... do we draft like them ??

where we drafted Jerry, they drafted OC Erik McCoy, and where we drafted Kenneth Murray, they drafted OC Cesar Ruiz.

my current draft strategy is to look Edge Defender round one, and then hope that Zion Johnson is still on the board round two, and if not, then hopefully Daniel Faalele is still there.

a safer bet might be to nab Zion round one and then look for Faalele round two.... what would New Orleans do ??

That’s when they had Brees right? Smaller dude, needs more protection. Free agency will dictate above scenario and draft should be cream on top. However, right with you if they can’t find premium edge in FA, draft one early. If they can’t address RT in FA, draft one early. Then would like a couple meaty CB’s one veteran FA and other young stud (really like Northwestern program best for good developed DB’s that excel next level).

I don't think this is really relevant.

However we did sign the best OC in football and drafted what appears to be the best LT (finally). Time to draft a starting RT and add some other OL pieces in FA and maybe draft another OG later.

Time to fix the defense now. That's our biggest issue.

I’d like that big giant 340lb NT from GA, Jordon Davis - but i keep reading mixed concerns of his motor and taking plays off blah blah. Give me 2 plays per series and call it a deal. Does he project well?

I live in Jo Ja so I have watched a ton of Jo Ja fball. The kid is the real deal.......if he was taking plays off Kirby would climb him like a tree and take his head off........

Star Iowa C Linderbaum injured in bowl loss … Star Iowa junior C Tyler Linderbaum left this afternoon’s Citrus Bowl loss to Kentucky in the 4th quarter with what appeared to a leg injury. Linderbaum, a potential top 10-15 prospect for the 2022 draft, limped to the locker room after being examined in the medical tent. He did return to the sidelines with less of a limp, but did not return to the game. His medical status going forward is unknown at this time. Hopefully he’s okay, but the possibility of an injury, particularly in what is for all intents and purposes an exhibition game, is why so many top prospects opt out of bowl games that are not part of the CFP playoffs.

Sam Williams is sollid,. He will be a good football player in the pros. Consistent. Brings high energy.

I agree. For some reason, many pundits are down on him.

[Berserker76]

I agree. For some reason, many pundits are down on him.

Probably because of the assault charges from over a year ago. All charges were dropped against him, but the taint lives on. He's a real freak, alright.

Thank you for offering a Saints personnel POV, for the Chargers. It is just that, I agree. Wouldn't that Saints principle also apply to Daniel Faalele? I would think a case could be made that he isn't nimble enough to get out in front of Ekeler on a screen. I don't object to Faalele, the player, not saying that. But are the Chargers better served by going RT in the 1st Round?

That is where I am currently at. I want to know who the Chargers right tackle is in 2022.

Occasionally, with the drop-off talent at EDGE after the 1st Round, I break from that scenario and go in EDGE Jermaine Johnson in the 1st Round and OT Jaxson Kirkland in the 2nd, as being a pro player's kid carries alot of weight with me.

Trey Pipkens balled out yesterday at RT. If he works his ass off the off-season, Chargers could swing taking Jermaine Johnson in the 1st, RG Zion Johnson in the 2nd.
