2023 NFL Draft Gameday Thread

[Davesta]

Will we draft a Michigan player today? Taking bets

 

[drjohnnyfever]

It seems like that Mel Kiper video from earlier in the season is turning out true: the Ravens don't think this draft is very deep and weren't concerned about acquiring more picks.

You all need to stop naming players, they keep getting picked

I wouldn’t mind a swing for the fences in the 5th on CB Eli Ricks or WR K.Boutte. Bad seasons have them both falling if they had years similar to their previous performances easy 1-2 round talents.

Injuries and coaching change cost K.Boutte makes me think of S.Diggs in the draft.

 

[UPennChem]

Don't @ me. I really think our pick is gonna be one of Hutchinson, Perry, Palmer, Scott, or Boutte

 

[Florida Raven Fan]

If the Ravens really felt there wasn't much value in later rounds why not bundle em up to move up? What to draft players you're not even high on.. anyway my thought on this.

Eli Ricks doesnt have the kind of testing numbers to be a guy you normally swing on

Patriots got a real hidden gem.

We want diggs? Rakim Jarrett in the 5th it is!

Eli Ricks just isn't very good in all honesty.

Boutte has some potential but there are reportedly a lot more off-field concerns than the ones the public knows about.

if the board's completely cleaned out of guys they like then it makes sense to just get a few different guys in
the time to package is when you can still get a guy you like

sounds like trenton simpson was the last guy on the board with a day 2 grade

Boutte didn’t really stick out to me on film

i kinda liked him a bit

 

[Edgar]

Did not like Braeden Daniels at all
Glad someone else took him

 

[UPennChem]

i kinda liked him a bit

He CAN be very good. Or he could literally be a head case and lazy and do absolutely nothing

 

[52520Andrew]

i kinda liked him a bit

I think my problem is I don’t know what exactly he does well that will enable him to beat NFL corners consistently

 

[UPennChem]

Don't be shocked when this pick is DTR

 

[RaineV1]

He's a little redundant when we have Simpson and Hamilton, but JL Skinner is a really good box safety and Nickel prospect that fits our style of defense.

the testing was a huge turnoff because he looked like he won with fluidity and suddenness and then none of that showed up in his testing

I bet you he was just overconfident and didn't prepare
