2016 NFL Draft (2nd and 3rd round) Day 2

I like the picks so far. A little off topic, ok not really, what would our starting d-line look like if the season started today?
Baker, Paea, T-Murph, Reyes (nickel)
Baker, Paea, Reyes (3-4)
Bench: Ricky J Francois, Ziggy Hood, Golston

Besides needing a nose tackle, we probably aren't nearly as bad there as we think. The additions of Hood, Reyes, and T-Murphs move are solid additions.

Thats what I'm thinking. I think they'll go for a big 2 gapping nt late, like round 6 or 7 to be on the field the 30 or 40% of the time we're in base 3-4, the rest of the time baker, kerrigan, smith, paea, murphy and gallette will alternate as required. Any high pick dl is gonna take snaps away from those guys.. I think scot sees it that way and wants those guys on the field as much as possible to get after qbs.

Id expect a rb, ilb and nt in some sort of order.. I'd guess we're gonna roll with lich and mcrib for another year, don't anticipate a 5 or 6th round center being able to step in and start.

Im hoping theres a gem left in the trenches on either side in our draft future

You always here about is BPA really true or not, for us, seems like its legit, everyone knows we need a DL, 3 picks in, haven't picked one. If it was need based, seems like we'd have at least 1 of 3.

Id consider trading up in the 4th for Billings. higher than a 4th round talent. also like the idea of Tyler Matakevich in the 4th.

pot roast went to NE

I stand corrected.

Then sign Henry Melton, or Randy Starks. Reyes cannot start he was one of the lowest ranked DL in the league. And Paea was mediocre at best last year.

Pass defense: 1st. Run defense: 33rd. :D

Seriously though, it's so refreshing to see us truly taking the BPA. Being real, I'm like, "WHEN ARE WE GONNA' TAKE A DT?!" but something about Billings must have given them serious pause. The good news is that suddenly our secondary should be a strength.

With the addition of Norman, Cravens and Fuller, our secondary is a position of strength and depth. I propose a "nickname" is needed for this secondary, "The Iron Dome", like the Israeli anti missile defense system.

Let's wait until they earn it. I am greatly encouraged, though.

I like it. I was thinking the same thing about our receiving corps- something thats never been done before like...the Fun Bunch or the Smurfs!
