2017 NFL Draft Discussion Thread

A little stunned with the Bears selection and really disappointed they had to give up picks to do it (team was already short on picks to begin with). Need to address the secondary in the 2nd round, but I'll be very shocked if they keep that 2nd round pick. Gotta imagine they will look to trade back and acquire more picks.

Really surprised with Foster's fall so far
 
1st Round winners and losers

Winners:
Browns: Got the top pick right, makes a good trade to acquire additional picks, goes back into the first round twice, g a thing two more solid players. A night the Browns needed.

49ers: John Lynch had himself a night in his first draft as GM. Getting an elite DE in Thomas, getting a steal in Foster st 31, and a haul in a trade moving down only one spot.

Buccaneers: A team on the rise and got perhaps the steal of the draft in OJ Howard. Their offense takes a step forward.

Losers:
Raiders: It's appropriate the Raiders are moving to Las Vegas in a couple of years, because they took a huge gamble wit h the selection of Conley and the allegations surrounding him.

Bears: Give up three draft picks to move up one spot and draft a QB after you gave a rich deal to Mike Glennon. Don't get that one.
 
After reading up on Takk, I'm pretty happy with it. The FO loves their ultra athletic guys and he has long arms, speed, and agility in spades.

Jeremiah at NFL .com called the move up and the pairing weeks ago actually.
 
Love the Browns draft so far. I didn't think any of the QBs were worth trading up for, but that's just what happened. Yet the Browns kept their cool and ended up with 3 first round picks. I don't know that'd I'd have traded up for a TE, but they didn't give up much I guess and still got their guy.

I think by now, they obviously are aiming for Josh Dobbs in round 2. As a Vol fan I love Dobbs and he's extremely smart, but I don't think his game transfers well. I don't think the comps to Dak are very good. At least teams know he can still produce behind a pourus OL as he always had a pretty bad OL at UT. And the Browns might actually have a decent OL.
 
I was surprised the Titans took Davis that early but he was the best receiver in the draft imo and MM needed another weapon too. I wish they would have gotten Adams right there and too the best offensive player available at 18 which turned out to be Howard but hindsight is 20/20. I think Jackson will turn out to be a pretty good and versitale player.
 
Trubisky already feels like he'll either be one of the dumbest picks at No. 2 ever or the most genius if he leads them back to glory. Glennon had to be sitting there like what????
