2022 TPB Members and Pundits Mock Draft Thread

[TexanBeerlover]

With the Mack trade, we just made our big splash move. I don't see how we can also sign a FA CB. So, CB might be the 1st round target.

they still can, and probably will. Also in favor of concept of trading down from #17 if offer is enough, to recover that 2nd used on Mack.

asking the resident draft experts here: did the probability of Jordan Davis to us at #17 go up today? seems like it to me, wondering if anyone else agrees.

Yes, the probability of drafting Davis just increased. He has Vita Vea size, but he’s longer and has better athleticism. He’s one of the better run-stuffing DT prospects in the last 10 years, and the 2021 Chargers had one of the worst run defenses I’ve seen. It makes sense.

I’d also say the probability of drafting an OT at #17 increased. Of course that move would be a no brainer if one of the elite tackle prospects fell, otherwise the guy that makes sense at 17 is Penning, possibly Raimann (tho I don’t see it). That being said, it’s a deep OT draft and TT might be planning to nab the best one in the 3rd, maybe using one of those later round picks to maneuver a few spots.

We’ll have to wait for the rest of FA to narrow it down further.

IMO, there’s too many starter-level FA CBs available to not take a swing at one. I’d expect it. But if we don’t, I like the first round CB prospects that could be available at #17.

Another good question is, will we re-sign White? If not, LB could be on the table at 17. Lloyd or Dean are the candidates.

What about Nwosu? Even with the Mack trade, I wouldn’t rule out edge at 17 if there was a BPA for the taking.

Long story short, the draft is still wide open, but Jordan Davis looks more interesting now.

Tevaughn Campbell just became a better player.
:lol:

A now leaner Davis could rotate in with Linval, JJones and even Tillery.

Your guy Walker remains the perfect pick, and who knows, maybe he drops like Derwin did.

I am now thinking mid round for an athletic type ORT, Diesch, Tom, Volson...whoever, when the value happens.

I have a strange feeling TT trades up for Jordan Davis. Scheming of scenarios at least.

To be honest, I like Walker and Karlaftis about the same. Walker has the higher ceiling, Karlaftis is more NFL ready. Both have inside/outside versatility. I like the idea of getting a versatile edge because Bosa is versatile too. Between Bosa, Mack, and Walker/Karlaftis, and Staley’s creativity, defenses would be scrambling to cover assignments. They wouldn’t know who’s lining up where.

The Jordan Davis pick is intriguing for a few reasons, but one of the biggest is that he fits on a team with Tillery. Davis, as a run-stuffing two down IDL, would allow Tillery to sub in as a 3rd down/passing down specialist. I’ve been saying for a long time that that’s Tillery’s highest potential. Davis and Tillery dovetail together.

Im off Edge in the first this year....you put Rumph and maybe another mid rounder behind our 2 monsters to provide depth and learn....I want my first round pick playing a lot of snaps, especially lacking another potential starter from the second round. DT, CB, LB should be the pick...jmo

Davis, Wyatt, Mcduffie, Dean, Lloyd, Mcreary, Gardner....I would personally entertain Travis Jones there.

Not that Im gonna throw the remote if we pick Walker, JJ, or Karlaftis...just would rather get someone with the likelyhood of significant playing time.

[wu-dai clan]

What about a NASCAR Front, LB ?

Staley does like to persuade you to run.

[equivocation]

Imagine Bosa and Mack lined up on the same side with speed on the other edge.

Gotta get to 3rd and 7+ first though.

Trade down with Bucs to grab another 2nd, get Wyatt or Jones at the end of r1 appeals to me. Or McDuffie at 17.
