Draft Weekend Takeaways
So many threads, didn't know where to put this, so new thread.
Still UFDA's, free agents, and 4+ months to go before this team is set. But how do we feel directly after the draft?
-Ballard murdered the 2nd and 3rd round after not having a 1st. It's not unrealistic (however unlikely) to suppose that the four Day-2 picks could be starters as early as this season. Aside from Pierce, if the rest don't start, I still think they'll be high talent depth/rotation with potential to be future starters. I really like all four guys. Jelani Woods reminds me of Jimmy Graham.
-Big theme was giant monster athletes.
-Glad they didn't reach on a QB. I knew this wasn't a strong QB class, but I was still surprised at how reserved the league in general was about selecting these guys. Next season is a better QB class and the Colts will be better situated to make a move to get a guy if they like him.
-Thank you, Jacksonville, for passing on Hutchinson.
-Thank you, Houston, for being one of the teams with a boatload of early picks and not murdering it like the Jets did.
What else?
