Stole him right out from under the Buccaneers. In turn the Bucs drafted a guy that won't be on the roster.

Super solid pick up. Absolutely a great compliment to what Bolton and Chenal do.

You can't have a list of one position and a single other player and anything outside of that doesn't make sense.

At this point of the draft grades are all over the place.

I think given our respective RB and LB rooms, I'd disagree. We do need a coverage LB, so fair enough, but you can't tell me you weren't expecting a RB then.

I like Bassa as a coverage backer option. I was surprised he didn't test better than he did, because he doesn't look like a 4.8 guy when you watch him play.

If they didn't fully expect him to make the team and have a planned role for him, they're not trading up.

I'd be pretty shocked if he didn't make the team. Especially as a ST capable guy.

In a playoff game vs Watson and the Texans Dorian odaniel (Sutton era holdover)had a role as a spy and actually had a sack. Spags will have a role for him. Maybe not every week but he will have a chance to fill a role

To be fair - I wasn't.

I just picked a different LBer.

LBer made a TON of sense with that pick.

Hope this guy gets cut PRONTO. **** the Ducks always.

Imagine caring about Oregon for any reason

I was thinking of throwing some money at Isaiah Simmons who is still unsigned but this is cheaper and more long term

Green dot on a title-contending defense.

Smarts will always be a major plus with the volume of a Spags D

Yeah, I guess that's true. And there's not much competition or depth at LB.

Yes, but there's nothing odd about the team picking a different position than you expect, especially the next likely one. You can't nail the position 100% based on need in any round.

A QB would've been odd. IOL would've been odd.
