2021 NFL Draft Gameday Draft Thread

yeah boykin's gotta be worried for sure - proche and duvernay under our control for longer and boykin's shown nothing except downfield blocking and special teams - not sure that's going to earn him a role this year

I mean considering the only very likely to see a lot of game time are Watkins, Hollywood and Bateman, being able to be a high value special teams target means he will likely be the 4th WR as why would you want a 4th who cant.

Proche and Duv are also our returners and have done a great job there

 

[Simba]

Looks like we traded out

 

[JoeyFlex5]

I dnt think hollywood getting a 2nd contract here

Ima call you Steve O, cuz you wild boy

 

[Ludy51]

We trade with the Cards?

Exactly what I thought, and I wouldn’t necessarily say outside, but more vertical, I think he offers more high point ability than Snead ever could’ve.

that said, I’d rather see us design plays for duvernay as a slot than Wallace.

there'll be roles for both - duvernay still cant run routes - and maybe he learns but right now duvernay's more of a gadget and special teams weapon - he'll get on the field in 4 wide situations when they happen and there'll be some snaps where he comes on the field to play the z or slot and go in motion etc.

but tylan offers slightly different value - and maybe a potential replacement for sammy

What pick do the Cardinals have? Not watching the draft rn

Picked up a pick next year for a much stronger class. I like it

because other guys play on special teams too and he's not a standout special teamer...
downfield blocking isnt enough to earn a roster spot - not when duvernay's out there as the top return man and probably best gunner on the team - proche might be in trouble too but think the extra year of control and better physicality at the catch-point gives him more of a chance to win that battle

 

[rossihunter2]

yes future picks - 2022 picks like gold dust

Also 3 picks in round 5 now - 160, 171, and 184. Saying fuck the late rounds where there will be a whole bunch of nobodies

 

[RaineV1]

I really think Boykin is gone. Assuming we keep five on the active roster that's:
Hollywood
Watkins
Bateman
Wallace
Duv

im glad we got rid of the 210th - was hardly any value there at all

talent dropping like a lead balloon after the 5th round methinks

 

[SepticeyePoe]

Ooh, nice

and if we keep 6 then proche's probably got a leg up on boykin

I think proche is gone over boykin at the very least

You have to think this passing offence is going to look different this year, or else why would we be adding all these pieces lol
