    Yeah who knows, Pace definitely does his thing. Gonna miss Howard tho.

    I don’t think we will miss him all that much with our offense

    Only thing that worries me with Davis is that he had every opportunity to win that Seattle job and they kept trying to find a better RB.

    He was definitely a square peg in a round hole with Nagy. Ran hard tho and helped us beat some teams we shouldn’t have with Fox.

    If they grab Dexter Williams I’ll be a happy man. Obviously I’m biased but I love that guy.

    If we’re being homers, Josh Adams would have made sense with his size and catch ability.

    6tg rd pick is better than a zero Rd pick. We can pick up a UDFA that’ll be more productive than Howard.

    I saw that on twitter and thought maybe it was a 1 game or preseason game special. Was trying to wrap my brain around how confusing/weird it would get.

    Probably the best move right now, leaves us open to pretty much draft BPA in rd 3.

    We’ve went over this, this isn’t the team or the year to hope we found a NFL caliber kicker. This is possibly a Super Bowl contending team, lock up the kicking position with an all-time great kicker. Get it done.

    It’s a shit ton to invest in the kicker position. You already got the cap hit on Parkey and Gould probably wants 5 x 2 or 3 plus giving up the pick.

    Add in there has been zero indication that our front office wants Gould back. Sure the fans want him but the team seems set on drafting a kicker

    All I know is that KC was high on him saying he’s a Kareem Hunt 2.0 (on the field not off it).

    “One of the safest runners in this draft with a desirable combination of size, vision, toughness and creativity. He runs with impressive calm and instincts in the midst of interior mayhem, weaving and battering his way through traffic. Smart teams will recognize his ability to create yardage for himself with his eyes, footwork, contact balance and power. Should alleviate concerns about his lack of explosiveness. Montgomery has a pro-ready game and Day 2 (Rounds 2-3) value as a good NFL starter.”

    Any one of us probably could have got that review running against Big 12 defenses last year....just saying.

    Probably the best production from a RB in this class. Kid is big, runs hard and has a little juke in him. Good pass catcher and overall just a well rounded player. He didn't test well at the combine but did look better at his pro day.

    He's a good running back.

    Hopefully Matt Forte 2.0, the lack of D in the Big 12 has me worried tho.

    Physical possession receiver who wins with attention to detail in his routes, plus body control and sure hands. Ridley isn't the fastest receiver on the block, but there is enough under the engine to race cornerbacks down the field if he's challenged on an island. His separation windows may always be a little tighter, but his timing and ability to turn contested catches in his favor should make him a better pro than college player with an upside of WR2.

    NFL.com had him as a 2nd-3rd round grade so sounds like some good value.

    I like the pick because he won’t be counted on heavily for a year or 2, give him time to get used to the speed and physical nature of the NFL.

    So our last pick Stephen Denmark is a 6’3” 220 corner who runs a 4.46. I guess he’s a converted WR so he may end up back there with that size and speed, definitely an interesting prospect.

    Alex Bars will be a steal too. Especially knowing Hiestand. If he doesn’t get hurt this year he’s easily drafted in the top end of the draft.

    I think we signed 2 more kickers too, if we can’t find one with 5 guys battling it out we’re fucked.

    Can’t remember where I saw it but someone said they haven’t seen a workout as impressive as his in over 20 years of scouting. I guess his film is shit though because he doesn’t know how to play DB.

    Wonder if the kid isn’t Patterson 2.0, hard telling what Nagy can do with him.

    What excites me is that Pagano is known as one of the best secondary coaches ever. Let that kid tear up special teams for a couple years as he gets tutored.
