Steal Of The Draft

I want this to be on record, so that, when I'm right, I can brag about it. If I'm wrong, I will pretend it never happened.

 

The steal of this year's draft will be: RB - Robert Turbin - Utah State. Turbin was taken in the 4th round, 106th overall, and he will eventually be the 2nd best RB taken in this draft. I watched a lot of Turbin in college, and the guy is an absolute beast. GREAT pick by the Seahawks !!!!

I'll take Marvin McNutt

 

 

I've raved about that kid but not sure he landed in the best spot. Maclin, Jackson and an improved Avant. Heck even Riley Cooper showed a bit last season.

 

If McNutt is going to be the next big McThing in McPhilly, it'll be in a few years.... after Cooper and Avant fizzle and Jackson goes crazy.

Yeah this worries me too. Loved him but there will need to be something big to get him a chance.

He may not be the absolute steal of the draft, but getting Alshon Jeffrey in the middle of the 2nd for the Bears was a bit of a coup. The guy has prototypical size and absolutely torched the best of the best in the SEC. If it weren't for a headcase at QB, he would have had more stable, progressively impressive numbers.

 

The Bears had a huge need for WR, which was addressed by the Marshall pickup. That's what makes this pick even better, IMO. He'll have a chance to learn from one of the best possession guys in the NFL.

 

Jeffrey could be the best WR in this class, especially given Blackmon's progress may be slowed by QB deficiencies in Jacksonville.

I think he'll get a chance, really. Avant and Cooper aren't really anything special and that'll start to show.

 

It just may take a couple/few years, as opposed to guys like Floyd and Jeffrey who'll likely show pretty immediate impacts.

Brian Quick, Rams. I had him #2 WR on my board. He may ultimately be the best WR in this class. He is well behind Blackmon due to route running at this point but projects to be a beast in coupe of years.

Obviously a biased/homer selection, but Patriots getting Alfonzo Dennard in the 7th was pretty quality. Unfortunate Dennard was an idiot last week, but if he continues the way he was before that, he'll have no more issues and can be a player.

RB Chris Polk getting signed as a free agent by the Eagles? He was a consensus top 5 RB last time I checked mock drafts and the NFL channel was talking about him after day 1? The drafting process never ceases to amaze me in how little I know.

 

 

Hidden degenerative health red flag. I don't remember seeing a thing pre-draft from any source about it. Same thing with Miller's shoulder, which I believe is why he dropped so far.
