Who do we select at #6?

[beachcomber]

4. NYG: TRADE OUT - I think this is where the action begins. Unless some team gave up the farm for #1.

Teams will want to make a move to get up ahead of Miami and Chargers. Chargers may feel the need to move up to #4.

4 teams that could move up to #4.
Oakland
Jacksonville
Carolina
Tampa Bay

the team that I could see moving up, and has enough draft capital to do so is Vegas.... if Gruden is a Herbert fan, question is does Mayock drink the koolaid too ??

[beachcomber]

I think if Tua or Herbert is there, we will jump on it.

hopin' most everyone believes as such, and.... that we do better than that, aka Brown or Thomas.

[Boltsfan70]

Really hoping Thomas is there at 6 for us

[beachcomber]

1) Cincy * Burrow
2) Wash DC * Thomas
3) Detroit * Young
4) Vegas * Herbert
5) Miami * Tua
6) LAC * Brown

With was firing most medical staff and all to do with the Trent evaluation, might he come back leaving no need for an ot?

Pretty much my thoughts, with new coach and GM possibly wining and dining him...though I still see Thomas gone, with the Giants nabbing him.

Brown over Okudah?
Okudah gives Bradley flexibility to play more man....not necessarily that Bradley truly wants to go that route.

Okudah, Hayward, King, Adderly, James......that matches up well against K.C.

Brown provides an inside presence, but young defensive tackles struggle....why go down that rode again if you think tillery/jones are ready to step it up?

Okudah, might be the guy. A tom telesco curve ball.

Exactly.
BPA at position of value.
Improve defensive team speed.
See Stephon Gilmore of NE
for potential impact from Okudah.

what matches up well w/KC and all teams, is a beast coming up the gut for your best man.... Russell Okung affected the outcome of games and how PR played.... neither Derwin nor Joey did.

a (real) NT will impact your pash rush/two DEs, keep your LBs clean and make your DBs job much (much) easier, and....

Tillery and Jones may never step up.... personally suspect they are journeymen/rotational talents @DT in the NFL.... (Tillery is prolly best as a 3-4 DE ?)

Elite secondary, it’s the new elite passrush.
Okudah or Brown if we go D
id be happy with either

Normally, I'd agree that CB is a position that impacts a game more so than DT. This year, I make an exception to that perception. Only because the CB class is so deep. There should be good zone coverage CB's into the 4th round (because depth). Okudah is rated high because he so good at press coverage (which can be hard to find). But we run mostly zone with Gusly.

Brown is a force in the middle... very good at run defense, pass rush push, and keeping LB's clean. He would make all others around him better. After Brown and Kinlaw (both 1st rounders) the DT class falls off. Having said that, there should be some pretty good run-stopping DT's in later rounds (Ravens do it every year).

Out of Brown and Okudah, I'd probably take Brown (this year). Of course, I'd take OT before either...

gusD would be very happy to have this elite, scheme flexible Corner.

His explosion would work very well opposite Hayward, and get us some coverage sacks and turnovers.

Tillery flashed the last four games.

Tranquill.

Derwin as the alpha dog.

Our stellar defense is just starting to take shape.
