Pass blocking TE with sure hands. I’m liking this if we get him as a UDFA.

If he can stay healthy the blocking is what I’m equally excited about.

I’m thinking we need another starting caliber CB. Maybe we’re hoping a veteran is cut for salary cap reasons or perhaps we could make a trade.

From what I've read they like the corners we have.

From what little I've seen, Moss is an old-school violent blocker - I'd hate to have to play against him. Anyone remember Donnie Warren? That's who he reminds me of. And seems like he has good hands. Moss is like the opposite of what his father was. I think he has a better chance of making the team than their 2 7th rounders.

So we got AG and AGG - both Antonio's. They both seem like fun picks with great size - especially AG if they find the right times to take advantage of his big play attributes. AGG is like a more talented version of Harmon - they were both extra productive in college, but AGG is bigger and exceptionally long - 7'1 wingspan - and he jumps well, so he's got an enormous catch radius. I'm guessing they were surprised that AGG was there - they had bigger needs than another young WR.

I loved the Charles pick - he's only 20, so don't expect much as a rookie, but if he's our LT of the future, getting him in the 4th round just minutes after finally getting rid of Trent Williams, that's huge.

The 2 5th rounders seem like solid depth that should make the team. I don't think the 2 7th rounders make the team, but hey - they're 7th rounders. If you're going to mess up on picks, that's the best round to mess up on.

And I expect the fact that they couldn't do physicals knocked down the amount that the Skins could get. I'm relieved that he's finally gone. And notice he didn't get any raise or extension. That kinda shows there really wasn't much of a market for him.

Sounds like his suspension was for failing a marijuana test - which makes him sound even more like Trent Williams!

...makes him sound like a whole lotta people!

Maybe in his case it was medical marijuana -- or maybe dental!

I don't know anything about how to judge whether an NFL draft pick was good, bad or indifferent, so I thought I'd weigh in on the late picks.

Start with the double-name guys:

Gibson (Les Paul) -- what a great example of draft (I mean finger) picking!
Gandy-Golden looks gaudy.
Smith-Williams is going to surprise a lot of people.
Curl-EQ is a hard hitter & an intelligent, high-effort player. Maybe he looks a little slow, but that can be fixed in post-production.

The other guys are at a disadvantage, only having one last name. But, at least they are good ones!

Saahdiq Charles -- has the good stuff. You know what I mean, right Ruz? "Saahdiq" is Arabic for "righteous", btw -- bet you didn't know that. I didn't either until I realized that "tzadik" is "righteous" in Hebrew.

Khaleke Ismael -- has improved enormously since his draft day name trade with the other guy.
"Kala" is Greek for wonderful, which is helpful. Unfortunately "eke" is Greek for the missing "grrrr," so he may not be aggressive enough to play in the naturalfit ball league.

Keith Hudson -- is already regretting the name-trade & is resigned to looking for an agent to help launch his new netflix show, The Man With A Missing Name. Not "Keith" but "keef" is Arabic for marijuana, btw. Don't ask me how I know; I'll just lie to you.

Then there's Chaste Young -- he's too pure to need any name work.
