OK so we were a little less draft heavy as we traded our 1st round pick for a WR and a 2nd round pick for a CB.
We pretty much want to make a really strong run at Nick and Dave this year and we have one of the most talented rosters on paper going into preseason.
OK so we took this team over midway through last year and there was a decent amount of guys not signed and i franchised a few that i probably would not have. So that means we sort of need alot without really needing too much if that makes sense to anyone.

Bench Reps: 21
Agility: 7.08
Broad Jump: 9' 11"
Position Drill: 37
Grade: 5.30
Developed: 43
Why did we draft this guy? He was the best player we saw on the board. I really expect him to have a chance to start next year with some of our vets getting up there in age and price tags. We will most likely keep him at WLB.
His statics are a little lower then you hoped Help us understand there? His statics are fine i see a 100 combined or slightly over for his two bars. I need the PRS less in ability for our scheme. He is a good run stuffing coverage linebacker. We had him rated as the 3rd best OLB and he can play every down for us hopefully.
Post TC 4-51/51 showed he started at 25/40 so _26/+11 starter at MLB and had 98 tackles last year
Post TC 5-+25/+10 to 50/50 100 tackles 1 sack and 76% pass defense. This is the man for us at MLB

Why did we draft this guy? Tyrone is a no brainer. He is undersized but one of the smarter offensive lineman in the draft. We will not have to rely on him immediately but if he shows up in camp we will cut a vet G or C.
What was the major component that gravitated you to drafting him? In case you do not know it higher the Sole the less the penalties. He is only 280 pounds so we have to get weight on him but you do not get perfect hand me downs in the 3rd round. If you can get starters in the middle rounds you are doing just fine. We expect him to look like he does and maybe have his RB slightly less but pretty close.
Post TC 4-47/47 I show started at 22/45 so +25/+2 to a decent backup C we will try to trade most likely

Why did we draft this guy? Another really smart offensive lineman that is strong as an ox. It is always a gauge but his bench should put him at about 55 and he looks about 70. If i had to guess he is better then his combines or we hope he is based on that cute little static. His combines are just over the median so we will see. He should be a backup for us this year with a chance to start next year with our aging offensive line.
What was your major component to drafting this kid? 1 Static bar is better then it is supposed to be. He is as smart as they come. His combines are not ideal but they are better then what the information is telling me. DA tells me 30-48-54-46 so we will see if that static bar helps him.

Why did we draft this guy? By far he was the best player we had on the board. He has no statics yelling at me but he showed up at the combines almost as if his bars were dead on the same. We had a 3rd/4th round grade on him and he also fills a need to get younger at the TE spot.
What about his statics they are pretty low are you worried? I am really less worried about him then Flynn before him. Douglas seems like a safer bet. He will not be a major BP guy but is reliable and has some wiggle. He looks like an ok blocker. The one part we are not happy with is his endurance but we drafted him at the end of the 5th round so there has to be a reason he slipped.

Why did we draft this guy? OK here is one that we are going to move the player. He is a bigger linebacker and i want to put him at DE. He has good RD, PRT, and decent PRS, with decent endurance.
What about the PRS bar does that scare you? It does not only because he will have the PRT to play with in the move. His two bars of PRS and PH should be around 80 total according to his combines yet he has 80 plus in PH so that should be a good sign. I am hoping he can move to DE after we put some weight on him if its possible and if not he will struggle to make the team for us.
Post TC 4- 48/48 showed 23/50 to start with so +25/-2 and a rotation guy at DE for us right now.

Why did we draft this guy? Value. He is really a good WR with all around abiity. The most important traits for a WR to succeed is RR,BP, and endurance. He has no endurance at all. That means he cannot ever be a mainstay in the offense but he is a value at the 3rd or 4th WR spot.
Are you worried about his endurance? I really had this guy listed as the 9th best Wr in the draft. HIs GD and RR should be golden but his BP is going to be marginal. He should fit well for Rakkoon as a slot guy in our offense.

Really the static bar in this kid why? 38 reps is like 55-60 on the BS bar and he is looking like a solid to be over 75. He is not a great pass protector but he is just below the outliers. We hate his sole score but sometimes you have to just take the strong big phyical kid.

He was the first or 2nd best PRT interior defensive lineman. He can play special teams and has a great motor. His run defense is marginal but useful enough.
This guy has no static bar what were you thinking? HIs ineptitude put him into a later round pick but having 20/45 bars in the statics are not going to hurt him. He does not have the killer bull rush but does have the quickness to beat those big heavies off the ball and put a move on them.

Why did you draft this kid? OK let's face it when you get to the 7th round nothing is for sure. I like to try to grab a best available based on combines and decent statics or a player that is great at something useful. Haden is a road grader and one of the best run blocking guards in this draft. He is not as strong at the point of attack in which you want and is marginal at best in pass protection.
Can you really draft guys that are one trick players? Yes for sure. Imagine you can keep guys fresh all of the time and not lose anything when you have a backup that is 35/35 in pass blocking and run blocking or have the kid that is 70/30. Whenever i am drafting in the later rounds it comes down to a crazy static bar or combine that sticks out or does not make sense or take a player that has something to offer your team.
