Draft Day 1 Game

[Charge!]

17. DT/DE Devonte Wyatt, Georgia - best paas rushing DT in draft.....

79. OT Kellen Diesch, AZ St.

I find it interesting how different PFN and PFF are in their player rankings..... and others ..... all the mocks are all over the place..... more so than usual.... is that good or bad?

Zion (no trade down)
Sam Williams

the latter is not who I'd pick, as think he's got a significant amount of risk to him, not to mention that there are a handful of talented TEs available @this slotting....

dude is the third (sub pkg) rusher that Stalesco can use to hedge their Khalil signing and the release of Nwosu & Sacknotsowell.... Williams has some SupaMel to his repertoire w/an interior pass rush, as he is a bit of a 3/5 tech tweener, albeit he is def an OLB/DE as well.... he dips 'n rips, has some heavy hands w/some pop to them, and @times has required three blockers.... dude can get skinny against the double team and has forced some fumbles.... dude is a playmaker, and claims that Mr. Jones/Jerrah told him that he needs another Micah Parsons.

he is a father, albeit he does have the ever so unCharger felony sexual battery charges on his resume, that were dropped.... he is animated/has somethin' to say to the peoples lined up across from him, and seems to have a mindset/mental makeup that needs to be coached up a notch or coupla few.... questions are how high is his ceiling/upside, and can Derwin & Co. get him to work.... ??

biggest red flag for me (besides his suspect intangibles) is that he doesn't set the edge well, and some peoples question his willingness to get after things in the run game, as he's a little bit Tilleryesque against the run, and not the best @reading and breaking down blocking assignments either.... seems more like a need pick to me.... ??

F21 & friends, if you don't mind, am curious 'bout ER/edge rusher, if Sam Williams is our intended selection @79, as seemingly much prefer DeAngelo Malone over Sam Williams, and would like to take a closer/another look @DeAn Malone....

think it's his intangibles that I really like, as Malone comes w/a fair share of cautionary tales.... he is an undersized, converted wideout that might be better suited as a 3/4 OLB.... he is not much in the way of an NFL DE, and is prolly more OLB than ED as well ?? there is a fair question 'bout level of competition, and given that he is more finesse than power, and w/a lower body that lacks power/drive, he can be bulldozed out of the action.... he doesn't set the edge so much, which prolly makes him more a rotational edge, that doesn't offer much for a four man front.... he does read/diagnose well, and understands run concepts and how to attack blocks in turn, and is noted for his football IQ/acumen.... he was a SB MVP and has added 9 lbs from his playing weight of 234 (or less) and is up to 243 lbs.

truth is he's prolly more a day three developmental prospect/fourth rounder, and would be overdrafted if we took him @79, altho he is projected to go just about there by more than a coupla few outlets.

also gotta/wanna look @Cade Otton, as he is my Charger of choice @79....

after double checking in on him, he's still my guy @79.... he plays like a TE s'posed to play.... he catches the ball in traffic/under duress, is the prototype NFL, inline Y, move the chains, combo TE, a rotational TE2 that can line up inline, in the slot or outside.... he's what I like to call a solid, a more than serviceable blocker, capable of 40-50 receptions/season, a QB friendly/trusted target/security blanket as a route runner, that gets himself open on short to intermediate routes, with soft/sure hands, and w/a Zach Ertz compare.... he's a contributor on offense and a medium rare talent.

against Michigan, he handled both Ojabo and Aidan Hutchinson, and have little doubt given his intangibles and NFL measurables that he will be well worth the get @79.

A lot is deep thought/solid opinion so far. So many ways to approach this draft.

And no favorites have seemed to appear.

I guess Devonte Wyatt has had a few domestic abuse charges. I was wondering how the heck he would be available all the way to our pick. Now I know. I can't see Telesco drafting him. I'll redo my picks later.

[La Costa Boy]

For those looking at Dax Hall......If we went Safety at 17, I would take Lewis Cine.

What happens if Kenny Walker is there also? Either one and I'd be happy!

Kyle Hamilton would be tough to pass on.
