Thread: 2023 Draft Talk

No compensatory picks for Denver this year...

That hurts to read.

My personal thought is to trade back to rd 2 (assuming we keep our 1 this year). We would then get a 2nd this year and a 1 next year.

This year we'd have a 2, 3, 3 to start the draft. I like that.


Next year we would have 1,1,2,3,3.

I would use either 1st rd pick 2024 to move down and get another 1 for 2025. The pats did this and it worked so well for years. I really think unless it's a sb push like 2013, we should always have 2 1st rd picks and Always use one to move down and acquire another for the next year.

With salary caP having a rookie salary for 5 years is so important!

Good in theory, but I'm not sure the 28th pick (and possibly later) is worth that.

Isn't that the pretty standard going rate?

You want to move back into the 1st round for a qb or the 5th year option, you have to give up your day 2 pick this year and a 1 next year.

11 1/2” hands! His poor wife!

Well, it was nice while we had it. Like sand, first-day picks just sift through our fingers.

Cody Mauch is a college LT that is working at C during Senior Bowl one-on-one’s because he has 32” arm length. It matters, shorts arms are the kiss of death.

If we use an eighth of an inch “fudge factor,” you can see that only six offensive tackles have made All Pro over the past six seasons with “below average” arm length. Those six are Taylor Lewan, Ryan Ramczyk, Joe Thomas, Joe Staley, Mitchell Schwartz and Donald Penn. You should note that none of those six have arms that are as short as Teven Jenkins (although Penn is close).

If you can overcome it in boxing and MMA you can definitely overcome it in the NFL. Note those are just the elite names at OT. I'm sure we could find solid/average OTs' with shorter arms, too.

Arm length matters; it is not dispositive.

I'd like to see us acquire another 3rd rounder. Shouldn't be too expensive and can add some critical depth near the front of the draft.

So 2 3rds. Bet they don't draft a RT. Why not continue a decade plus lesson in futility.

BDB!!!! Friend!!!!

NFL Network pimping Jake Heaner at the Senior Bowl, will the scrub propaganda ever end?

I’m watching to see if Tyson Bagent looks legit vs the step up in competition.
