Studs is a bit of a reach of word. We have a solid starter who recently has had fumbling issues.

A great 3rd down back who can't run between the tackles

And Jarrett Patterson who is ok I guess.


Our short yardage game last year fell off with Barber gone which is why I assume they drafted Robinson

What a shit draft.
They guy from Alabama they don’t draft has the potential to be the next Randy Moss.
The rest are JAGs.

Yeah man. I don’t get the stud part.
Gibson had more fumbles than 20+ yard plays.
He just doesn’t make plays.

McKissic is solid.

Patterson who?

And while I’m at it, can you Dyami Brown fans jump off a cliff?
He won’t break 300 yards this season. I don’t get why he is always getting mentioned as a weapon.

A lot of y'all really need to start listening to the John Keim Report.

Personally still holding out hope that he improves this upcoming years and has more opportunities with a new qb as well.

Ok so for the first 3 picks:

Was I surprised that Dotson was the pick? Yeah, I would have preferred Olave or Hamilton but a running mate for Terry was needed, badly. Great hands and route running. Seen him compared to DeSean and Santana Moss, don't think he is as fast as DeSean though.

2. Mathis, this pick I'm not a fan of, as I would have taken Brisker at that pick. I know we lost Settle and Matty I. I don't dislike the position I just think he could have been had in round 3 or 4 honestly, but better a round too early than 1 pick too late.

3. Robinson, we need a short yardage back, like I said before Gibson has a fumbling issue and McKissik can't run between the tackles, they're good at what they do, but Robinson should give us what Peyton Barber did when he was here.

I expect us to address S, LB, and CB now, and don't forget Mathieu is still out there, not that I think we sign him but I am holding out hope

Concerned about the middle of our D -- MLB and S are areas of real need. I rather view the picks we've made so far as nice to haves more than anything else. Sure, a great WR will help, but I would be interested to see if a healthy Curtis Samuel and 2nd year Dyami Brown is enough to supplement McLaurin when combined with a QB that can push the ball down the field -- which we simply didn't have last year. Sure, a good between the tackles RB is nice to have, although we have Gibson, JDM, and Patterson (who the coaches said could be a good short yardage back). And sure, after losing Matty I and Settle, getting another rotation piece on the DL is helpful.

But I don't see these needs as being as acute as the need for FS and MLB help where our current options are clearly holding us back. Now maybe this draft reflects a mentality of the BPA and not focusing on need. But I don't think so -- as much as I am interested to see Dotson's potential, do folks really think he was the BPA at 14 (the pick we had) or 16 (the pick we made)?

This draft feels a little aimless to me. Obviously, until guys suit up and start playing, no one really knows whether we've done well or not. But unless the folks we've drafted so far are lights out in their respective positions, I will wonder whether trying to hit on FS and MLB would have done more to help us contend than what we've done.

Really like the RB pick at the end. Robinson is a thumper!

I don’t understand how we aren’t trading down with the Mathis pick. That might have been the worst pick of the second round. Massive reach.
