AZ54 Posted January 15, 2023 Report Share Posted January 15, 2023 I spent time doing some mocks and lots of trade down scenarios and subsequently started scouting deeper into the draft. The first thing that I seemed to notice is that DT talent seems to be lacking in this draft. I could be wrong but my sense is that after Rd 1/2 there isn't a whole lot of depth. There are round 2 DTs like Gervon Dexter I have no desire to draft because he's so slow off the snap. That just leads me to think FA is the way to go for fixing DT this offseason and we can focus draft picks elsewhere. I like Drew Sanders at MLB. He's got some baggage, or growth areas, since Alabama kept him on-ball but he looks pretty good off-ball in these highlights. Watching him run down Bryce Young in the open field shows how well he can move. He also has the agility to get deep in zone coverage if needed or to cover TEs. Since he has spent time on-ball he's comfortable and pretty effective blitzing. He's going to need more coaching on his keys and a little patience from fans to let him settle in but I really like his upside. Paired with Sanborn and we might be good at LB for years to come. He's a late 1st early 2nd Rd pick on some boards. https://thedraftnetwork.com/sr-prospect/drew-sanders-8e48bb06-63a5-4a11-b5d0-6dee077d82e3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year we needed OL and WR and Poles drafted two DBs. At the top of the draft are 2 DTs and several Edge rushers. I think the first pick will fall there if BPA is still Poles style. If we trade out of top top 6 that could change. Free agency comes before the draft, who he grabs there will affect his first pick. DE and WR are weak in FA.

killakrzydav Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 Sanders really did allot of amazing things at Amanda’s. He should be a star if he keeps his mental together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
