I don't get the Talking Heads love for Strong, he doesn't seem to get separation at the college level, how's he gonna do it in the big time?kurtkeoki wrote:There was a lot of talk on NFL network about Jalen Strong. Well, we passed on WRs in both rounds. I think that says as much about what the coaches think of our WR corps as it does about our defense. Obviously we needed a LB, but it's equally telling that we apparently didn't need a WR. The progression of Patterson is even more important now.
yes that is what he playsfrosted wrote:Nice! Probably means no Paul Dawson
Love the pick though - can he play MLB?
I read somewhere in the last hour that he's got psychological issues that transcend any failed drug tests. I got a bit of "Demetrius Underwood" vibe from reading it, so I'm glad we're staying away.Angels Wings wrote:Gregory sliding further...guess the off the field issues are really scaring teams away
Sorry we didn't get Dawson. Kendricks accumulated almost 500 tackles at UCLA, if that merits anything.frosted wrote:Nice! Probably means no Paul Dawson

That would be Anthony Barr's reaction.“@itheeayb: wait are you serious?”
It's not like teams haven't done that before. You had Aikman/Walsh dual 1st round QB's for the Cowboys, Shuler/Frerotte, and the last pair, RG3/Cousins. And that was at QB.saint33 wrote: yes that is what he plays
In the NFL* - I realize that is what he played in college.saint33 wrote: yes that is what he plays

I think Kendricks is a great pick!CbusVikesFan wrote: Sorry we didn't get Dawson. Kendricks accumulated almost 500 tackles at UCLA, if that merits anything.
I think he's also been projected at WLB too if I'm not mistaken.saint33 wrote: yes that is what he plays
Mothman, if we draft a OL next I am going to run naked on the roof. This is working out nice so far.Mothman wrote:They went defense again. I guess this really is Mike Zimmer's team at this point!
It's a solid pick. Just remember, Vikes, you need to be able to block people.
Hopefully, they'll land a good guard in R3.
His skill set fits that profile. I'm hoping he'll be stout enough to play MLB for us, though.nightowl wrote: I think he's also been projected at WLB too if I'm not mistaken.
