With the 99th overall pick, the Green Bay Packers select Akeem Davis-Gaither, LB, Appalachian State The Packers brought in oft-injured Christian Kirksey to replace Blake Martinez at the linebacker position. Behind him? Oren Burks and Ty Summers, both of whom account for less than 1% of the team's cap hit in 2020. Suffice to say, the team hasn't invested much into the position. Davis-Gaither can compete for the #2 inside linebacker role and potentially start alongside Kirksey in Mike Pettine's 3-4 defensive scheme. Given Kirksey's recent injury history, there's a decent chance Davis-Gaither sees meaningful playing time in his rookie season. From The Draft Network:
The New England Patriots* select: DaVon Hamilton - Defensive Lineman - Ohio State The Pats* lost Danny Shelton and really need some help along the defensive line. Hamilton is incredibly powerful at the point of attack and can play all of the IDL spots...something Belichick values in his defensive linemen.
I'm out on this one guys, I very much so look forward to the final one. Could probably safely start it April 1st or so,
Ugh why, you have probably studied more prospects than any of us! @Night Channels is the only guy here who's as hardcore and starts scouting as early as you do. We need you for Day 3 lol At least help us group pick
It's just real sporadic and I don't wanna hold you guys up. Like I have no idea if I'll pick in an hour or in four days rn. Are we going to even get to round 5, etc? Round 3 has taken a week. If this whole thing takes us a month, the new one has to start relatively soon.
Considered him with the Bills as one of the higher guys left on the board but after they stocked up on DL in free agency it wouldn't make sense.
i wanna at least get through round 4 to see if i can round out my drafts haha. I have specific things I still wanted to address for both JAX and LVR.
All three rounds has taken a week, so far? That's about a round every 2.5 days. At this pace, we'd finish by Sunday?
