Yeah or nay on the draft class

It's one meaning less game, but this can be updated as the pre-season rolls on. They may not all make the team but I don't see any flat out busts yet.

• Round 1, Pick 21: Max Iheanachor, OT, Absolutely!
• Round 2, Pick 47: Germie Bernard, WR, Absolutely!
• Round 3, Pick 76: Drew Allar, QB, Absolutely!
• Round 3, Pick 85: Daylen Everette, CB, Absolutely!
• Round 3, Pick 96: Gennings Dunker, OG, Absolutely!
• Round 4, Pick 121: Kaden Wetjen, WR/RET, Absolutely! Special teams looked rough last night be he has that talent.
• Round 5, Pick 169: Riley Nowakowski, FB/TE, Absolutely! He moves very well for a fullback!
• Round 6, Pick 210: Gabriel Rubio, DL, Certainly looks good at this point.
• Round 7, Pick 224: Robert Spears-Jennings, S, Certainly looks good at this point and we need all the help and depth we can get.
• Round 7, Pick 230: Eli Heidenreich, RB/WR, Gotta love the kid, he has everything you want upstairs and character-wise.

So far, a pretty good draft class

 

A lot of people online didn't like the Wetjen pick. But in some ways, he's the guy I'm most excited to see (and didn't disappoint last night despite not really having an opportunity to return).

I think picking a guy who was almost guaranteed to make the roster with our 6th pick in the draft was a great move. The 3x 3rds gave us the luxury to be able to take someone who looks to be a very good returner earlier than usual.

 

It’s too early to project who will and won’t become a good pro. For rookies, I mainly want them to show something. I don’t dwell on their mistakes. People say it takes three years to truly judge a player, and I mostly agree. Having said that, here’s what I think of these players after 10+ practices and one preseason game as pros. It is insanely early. Color code

• Green = Among the top 20 in the NFL at his position in three years. A great pick.
• Purple = Solid NFL starter (top 25–45) in three years at his position.
• Blue = Fringe-level starter at some point in the first three years. A decent role player (very good #3 at his position.
• Orange = Backup / special-teams guy only.
• Red = Likely to be cut; may make the practice squad.
• Grey = Bust of a draft pick.

Allar – Yes, I think so. He has the tools, the confidence to throw over the middle ( QBs with big arms tend to throw there; average-to-weaker arms tend not to), and the size.



Everett - He’s trending as such. Looks like a great 3rd round find.

Iheanachor – The sample size is the smallest, but he did impress in his first two padded practices.



Spears – I’m very intrigued by this man’s ability and play so far at safety.

Bernard – He can play, but his upside is more limited than the players listed above him.

Rubio – Can be a usable two-down run-stuffer.

Dunker – Needs to transition from tackle to guard. Of all the players, he is the hardest to judge because of his college background as a tackle and his NFL position being guard.



Wetjen – Looks like a good kick-return man.



Nowakowski – A part-time FB/TE.

Heidenreich – Just a standard 7th-round pick. Has Rudy appeal.
