Will Holden to the Cardinals. Experience at RT and LT. LT in 2015 and beyond. Technician type. Run game pluses. Strong and big hands. Quickness limits him to RT likely and struggles with twists IMO.

Colts take Nate Hairston - a 49ers specific target I'd have had.

If Hairston had more game reps at corner and would've been tested a bit more, I still think he'd have performed and as a result would've gone a round or two higher IMO.

Jermaine Eluemunor to the Ravens. VERY interesting kid.

Powerful RT. Born in England. Raised in New Jersey. Very good high school wrestler. Some like him at guard better. Glided in some combine drills. Jim Turner was his position coach, somebody that NFL people have high regard for. Turner believes he will definitely start in the NFL. Rugby background.

Bucs still like Boise State backs I guess...

Dolphins take Isaac Asiata from Utah. Powerful mauler. Drills were important for him and he excelled at the Combine IMO. Struggles to change directions, however. Positive center of gravity. A lot to like but needs time. My first or second favorite OL remaining. Not many left I'd want to spend a pick on.

Eagles take Shelton Gibson. Nice.

Eagles just took an interesting kid - West Virginia WR Shelton Gibson.

Runs a lot of vertical type routes at WVU. Averaged 22 yards per catch this year on 43 catches (24 average last year on 37 catches). Has ball security issues. Poor timing at the Combine isn't an accurate picture of his real speed IMO.

Should be very interesting pairing with Wentz's deep ball.

Maiocco is drunk.

@MaioccoNBCS The #49ers are looking to feed the big dogs today — not with Kibble ’n Bits — but with the offensive acquisitions of Kittle ’n Bibbs.

Giants got another interesting kid - Youngstown State DE Avery Moss. Former Nebraska Husker. Had an immaturity issue (long story) that got him booted from Nebraska. Pelini (old coach) took him on at YSU. Ton of length with very good functional movement skills IMO. He just has no refining or advanced game. Needs a ton of coaching. Needs more moves, better technique, and just to mature.

The incident at Nebraska made him very hard for me to root for but he's the type of kid physically that I love.

Man, this draft would look MUCH better for me had we taken Kaaya over Beathard, Jamaal Williams over Joe Williams and Bucky Hodges over George Kittle.

I'm fine with Kittle, but I wanted a better move guy on the roster and that's Hodges all the way.

Joe Williams is too old, doens't like getting hit and is a quitter.

Beathard has an insanely low ceiling and he probably won't reach it anyways.

Don't really like the latter of the draft, honestly.

Glad we came out with Thomas, Foster and Witherspoon and a 2nd/3rd for next year so I'm overall happy. But I'm pissed that Kizer was there for the taking and he passed multiple times, and this second half hasn't been that good honestly with some of the other guys that have been available.

Texans took Treston Decoud from Oregon State. Shut down Chad Hansen when he faced him. Another developmental type I'd like to coach. Gosh, it feels like if you get drafted by the Texans lately at safety you better be able to tackle.

Wait, is Damien Mama still available?

GRAB HIM NOW.

Vikings Take USF receiver Rodney Adams. Good kid. He dedicated his combine performance to his mother who passed away in a car accident in 2013. He pledged money that was tied to his vertical jump performance at the Combine.

ChrisPozz · Post #1357 » by **ChrisPozz** » Sat Apr 29, 2017 7:15 pm

Bills take Nathan Peterman. Good luck with that.

Packers take Georgia WR Isaiah McKenzie. Gives them another guy that can return kicks for them, especially if Montgomery is going to be used at RB only.

ChrisPozz · Post #1359 » by **ChrisPozz** » Sat Apr 29, 2017 7:20 pm

Falcons take Drake TE Eric Saubert.

Good athleticism at the EWSG practices. During the game he had a drop on 4th and 3 that would've extended the potential game-winning drive. Had problems with drops in college. Awful blocker. Effort questionable. Lined up all over the field for them. Used on screens. High TD numbers his final two years.

Not a bad pick at this point. Might hurt some teams deep every now and then too.
