GABing about the 2022 NFL Draft

NFL Draft – Round Two

Some tweets I sent out about Round 2:

• “Yesterday, a Cheesehead gave us grief for crapping on Packers… we told him to get ready for WR Skyy Moore or WR Christian Watson.”
• “If Jets wanted to make Zach Wilson happy, Breece Hall would be the pick here…”
• “You can see the reality of the Giants salary cap mess with their draft strategy: got two anchor players in Round 1, and now constantly trading down to acquire extra mid-round picks while driving down the cost of the 2nd round selection.”
• “Seahawks select RB Kenneth Walker. Interesting pick… will be curious to see how the backfield in Seattle shakes out.”
• “Colts on the clock. You know, lost in the whole Matt Ryan acquisition is the underlying fact that the Colts still need a QB of the future. Likely not getting one here, but would be happy if they did.”
• “Giants on the clock; trade back again, or grab LB Nakobe Dean, who continues to slide?”
• “Browns on the clock. Can they draft an accountant or lawyer or PR person? Seems to be their biggest positional needs right now…”
• “Texans traded up to select WR John Metchie III. Hey, as long as they don’t draft a cripple, any pick can be considered a good pick.”
• “Ravens select edge David Ojabo. This is why the Ravens are always in contention. Drafted an explosive edge defender who fell out of first round due to tearing his ACL at the Combine– but they can wait for him to get healthy.”
• “Bears select DB Jaquan Brisker. Probably the best safety available after Kyle Hamilton, but Fields can’t be too happy.”
• “Patriots select WR Tyquan Thornton. Guess this the annual Patriots attempt to draft an NFL-caliber WR. At least they drafted a guy with sub 4.3 speed.”
• “Steelers select WR George Pickens. Big, physical receiver– seems like a natural fit for the Steelers. Solid pick, good value.”
• “Colts select WR Alec Pierce. Solid receiver, has good size (6’3″, 210) and 4.4 speed. I feel the need to say this because I figure you could be like me and have drawn a blank on this name.”
• “Boy, this is a rough QB draft. #NoShitSherlock“
• “Chiefs lost Tyreek Hill and picked up JuJu Smith-Schuster… that’s not quite an even trade-off. Do they go WR here?”
• “2.22: Chiefs select WR Skyy Moore. Probably the best receiver available that fits the KC scheme. Good pick here.”
• “Falcons select LB Troy Andersen. Dude’s a QB converted to LB. All the luck in the world to him, but that bio just has “disaster” written all over it…”
• “We’ve got converted QBs taken as LBs ahead of Nakobe Dean. Crazy stuff.”
• “Nakobe Dean must be hiding an injury– or not hiding an injury, as the case may be.”
• “Niners select EDGE Drake Jackson. Not excited about this pick; is he a pass rusher, a run stopper, a hybrid? Too inconsistent.”
• “Bills select RB James Cook. QB Josh Allen gets a scat-back type who will present match-up problems for opposing LBs.”
• “Broncos use their first pick of the Draft to select LB Nik Bonitto. It’ll be interesting to see how the Broncos plan to deploy Bonitto.”
• “Hey all, we’re continuing our Draft coverage over on our timeline. Apparently some folks complained to the mods about a sports entity posting too much about sports in this group.”
