    I'm more than pleased with how things went down, IDK what plays out if we move back but it doesn't matter

    We had a good draft, very happy with Davis and Jackson . I just think not having a 2 & 4 we missed out on some could talent that could help as well

    The 5 best players on the board @18 were:

    TJ Watt
    OJ Howard,
    David Njoku
    Reuben foster
    Taco Carlton

    Jackson and White were perhaps the 10th and 11th best players on my board. Not a bad pick but watch TJ Watt dominate the league for the next 10 years.

    Conley was mentioned I would not use a 1st rd pick on him.

    Would have preferred Lattimore at 5 and Oj at 18.

    Strictly talking 18, I would have preferred white or Conley, I like big corners.

    However, we got the best WR and a corner with a high ceiling that is crazy athletic.

    I like what we did...That said, I wanted Foster baaaad at 18. Yes, he has some blemishes, but he is an elite talent with an attitude. I also agree that TJ watt is gonna ball out.

    I am happy with Jackson, but was hoping for Foster. I feel sometimes you just gotta take a chance on a guy like Foster. If he is not a head case, you could have an elite LB wreaking havoc all over the place making a HUGE impact on D.

    Also would have taken White over Jackson, but its a pretty minor difference.

    I like Foster too. But I wouldn't have taken him.

    With no second, we HAD to go WR CB or CB WR. You can argue that TE could substitute for WR in this offense, but we had two completely empty starting positions to fill.

    Had we gone Lattimore at five, and all the WR were gone, I would have said Howard or Foster, one or the other.

    And frankly, I'd say the chances Foster is a stud for years and years is slim. Let's look at the issues...

    Already has bad shoulders supposedly.
    Is a head case. Apparently needed babysitting at Alabama.
    Is undersized. Already has heath concerns. How long can he last?

    I see the guy as one who will be a baller, but only briefly. LB is like RB... get chewed up fast.

    Yea I wanted Howard so bad paired with Davis but I understand why we had to get Jackson to address the secondary as well as drastically improving special teams. I wish we could have traded back a few spots to get better value for Jackson but you have to have somebody willing to trade up. If not nothing wrong with getting your guy. I trust Jrob has done enough homework on these guys to know they will develop into the kind of impact players we need to take that next step. I love the culture change we are going through. It's very blunt and obvious and I love it.

    6 people picked Conley.............. you want to risk a first round pick on a guy who could be a guest of the Ohio correctional system for the early part of his career?

    Some ppl haven't grasped the criteria JROB puts on first round picks. You have to check all the boxes that Jrob looks for in a player
    -High Character
    -Elite Production
    -Durability
    -reliabilty
