The Athletic Top 100 Draft Board - Dane Brugler

https://theathletic.com/1347517/2019/11/05/updated-nfl-draft-board-offensive-tackles-make-greatest-jump-top-100/?amp=undef

3- Tristan Wirfs (OT)
4- Andrew Thomas (OT)
10- Jedrick Wills Jr. (OT)
23- Austin Jackson (OT)
24- Alex Leatherwood (OT)

“As the draft board expands into the top 100, a few offensive tackles have made the largest jump up the draft board, specifically Alabama junior Jedrick Willis and USC junior Austin Jackson.”


Not sure why Trey Smith isn’t on this list...

Why did we pass on Wirfs :(

So we’ll end up with Jordan Morgan or Patrick Paul, 2 double first name fucks

Ah, I misread your post.  You were talking about nicknames.

Yeah the part that actually matters

[Heismanberg]

If we had picked Wirfs, he’d probably be the one that was driving the car that hit Greg Knapp

Or he'd be the one who had GVR land directly on his leg and ruin his career.

I'm so pissed off that the mother fucker is a Jets fan.

I absolutely love AVT, but:

Darrisaw is better, the Vikings got him in the trade back with us, and he’s a natural LT

We could have Wirfs and Darrisaw as our starting tackles

But at least JD tried!

He was freaking available at our original slot.  But we needed to overpay for a player 31 teams didn't want or else Aaron Rodgers wouldn't have joined the team until late August, which would have been CATASTROPHIC.

He should not be allowed to trade up anymore.

[Derek Smalls]

He should not be allowed to trade up anymore.

I never like trading up because they're almost always overpayments and people typically are not good at evaluating talent enough to make trade-ups worth it. In JD's defense, the 3 main guys he's traded up for are AVT, Jermaine Johnson and Breece Hall, all of whom look like good players.

JJ is the only one I can see as clearly being worth it. AVT would have been if he could stay healthy and Breece's success is based so much on the offensive line which cannot stay healthy in general.

On paper they were all good players but as of right now I'd say 2/3 are up in the air.

This has to be the priority. Multiple signings and picks
