Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

There was a massive run on running backs and nose tackles after our last pick last night.

Carlos Watkins, Dede westbrook, Desmond King, Jake Butt, Caleb Brantley best available

Also a solid group of interior oline left. Not much left at rb.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

RB Perrine and DT/NG Carlos Watkins would be a good 4th round

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

NT: Vincent Taylor, Stevie Tu'ikolovatu
OG: Issac Asiata, Dorian Johnson

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

I'm glad we have two have two fourth round picks.
Going to be nice to have some serious competition in training camp.
And yea, time to find a running back and a guard.
I still like Marlon Mack - RB and Nico Siragusa - G

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

I like marlon Mack to alot also, plus I heard skins like him too.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Major props to SM for getting the Jets 4th round pick. We'll be picking at the top of the 4th round and there are still a ton of good players. I'm thinking he knew that this years draft was deeper and wanted the extra picks for this year.

Dorian Johnson can be another BPA meets need - perfect world scenario.
We need a real NT more than we need a guard, but I dislike Lavauo. We are paying him way more than he is worth. That is never good.
Plus I like what I hear about Dorian Johnson. Sounds like a solid starter from day 1.
Good offensive lineman are great investment. Plus let Bill Callahan work with him.....win win

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

TV broke while I was at work yesterday so didn't get to watch draft last night. Went out and bought new 55 inch TV last night instead and just got it set up. Safe to say I'm vegging out ALL day today.

Absolutely love our draft. 1st round talent at all 3 picks.

I Agree. We can potentially get two starters at 114 and 123.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Loving the picks so far.

One issue: why doesn't the WPost remember that we also signed pro-bowl LB Zach Brown to our front 7? Is it just too hard for them to believe that we've had a good off season?

"Along with free agents Terrell McClain, 28, and Stacy McGee, 27, Allen and Anderson signify a major overhaul of the Redskins’ front seven."

Liz Clarke did the same thing yesterday. Nit picking, to be sure, but it gets on my nerves...

I don't think it is nitpicking, I think you nailed it. That's a really big omission. While I don't think the WaPo intentionally tries to shit on the team but it's mistakes (of omission) like this that make people think they do.

It's a complete overhaul of the front 7 so far. You have to love it. We don't have a crystal ball, so who knows if they're right on these guys, but I think the moves make sense, they're cognizant of both need and cost, and how can you hate that effort.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Gimme the human battering ram short yardage RB, Samaje Perine RB from Oklahoma.

THAT would help us down around the goal line immensely.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

We're On the Clock

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Perine!

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Perine

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Perine! Get out of my head, Jay and Bruce!!!

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Gentlemen get ready for a genuine run threat at the goal Line!!!

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Solid pick.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

This draft gets a bowl of A+

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

[quote=Chico23231;1170139]Solid pick.[/quote]

Better than that. This guy is a steal! He is very underrated. Excellent draft so far.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

I love it. He can be an immediate contributor on the goal line. This is exactly how I was hoping this draft would go. Defense in the early rounds and a RB in the mid rounds that can contribute to the rotation. The rest of this draft is gravy man. Next though, I'd like Peterman.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Fat Rob should still get carries, and Thompson should still be our 3rd down guy. But we needed someone who could rotate in for Rob, and move the pile on 3rd and short and goal line. This gives us all the situational skill sets.

We still don't have the homerun threat, but given that we got good defenders with our top three picks I am OK with missing out on Dalvin Cook.

Let Rob and Perine split carries, let Thompson take 3rd down, and let Perine handle the short yardage. And let Matt Jones compete with Mack Brown for the last spot.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Next pick? Carlos Watkins? Isaac Asiata? Desmond King? Nathan Peterman?

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Perine runs like a bowling ball

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Perine has been compared to Michael Turner (ex-charger) whom I loved.

Asiata and this draft is a complete slam dunk.

Hmmm.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

[quote=vallin21;1170153]Montae Nicholson[/quote]

I hope he proves the experts wrong:

Weaknesses Field toughness does not match his size. Ducks head into tackles and doesn't consistently square up his targets causing excessive missed tackles. Rarely imposes his will as a hitter. Leggy in coverage. Takes time to get hips and feet synced up when asked to mirror route breaks. Has had self-described confidence issues. Looks unsure of his responsibilities at times and will lose track of deep coverage. Just eight passes defensed over last two seasons which is a meager sum.
Draft Projection PFA
Sources Tell Us "Big and beautiful with no impact on the game whatsoever. He just doesn't have the aggressiveness you need to play this game on this level." -- AFC national scout
Bottom Line Nicholson has outstanding size and could test well at the combine and his pro day, but his tape is blah and no amount of workouts in shorts and t-shirts will change that. Nicholson's lack of playmaking production combined with his unsure tackling make him a traits-only prospect who could have a hard time sticking in the league unless he finds more confidence and aggression.

There goes the perfect draft. Rats.

Not sure if i like the pick, but The NFL network likes this the pick. "Big strong kid that will knock you out".

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

He has the tools for success, I hope his teammates and Manusky have him grow a pair and live to his potential.

Don't forget Keith Marshall - supposed to be healthy now and has speed. Jones has to be gone now.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Nicholson should be seen strictly as depth. Guy has potential, but that isn't saying much since we have a glaring need at S. He grows a pair and gets more physical with his play, he will contribute. MSU defensively this past season was somewhat disappointing to say the least, and he was a part of that.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Nicholson seems like a reach. Hopefully we're wrong.
