McShay's Way Too Early 1st Round Projections for 2015

[57stratdawg]

Has Benardrick McKinney going #27 overall to the Eagles.

Also, he has the Saints picking #31. Super Bowl runner up to the Broncos.

No way the Broncos repeat as AFC champs.

ETA: I realize it was a "way to early" prediction.

EETA: Denzel at #26? FRESHMAN ALL AMERICAN!

As we sit here today,

you can make a demonstrably stronger case for another team(s)? To me, they'd have as good a shot as any contender.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Is he really at #26? He's more likely to not finish the year on the team.

Hell no. I just loved the argument that he was just as good or better than McKinney a couple of years ago.

And the AFC was pathetic last year. The Patriots 2-deep at WR could have included a peglegged granny, and they were a cheap block away from the Super Bowl.

Looking at Denver's schedule I think they COULD go 0-4. They have to face the NFC West, with all but St. Louis being juggernauts, and they drew the AFC East, which includes a NE team I think is better than they are, a Dolphins team I was a fan of last year that has only gotten better this off season, a Buffalo team I think very highly of, and a Rex Ryan D.

They added/subtracted a lot of high risk, high reward contracts this off season. Just my opinion obviously, but I think Indianapolis, New England, and Pittsburgh are all going to be in it. Either way, the winner is coming from the NFC. I think the 3 or 4 overall best teams are in that conference. [Insert SEC strength of schedule style argument here.]

 

[mcdawg22]

What was there, 6 FSU players on it?

Also, I'd be surprised to see Amari Cooper go second.

2nd round or 2nd overall?

 

[57stratdawg]

He has him going 2nd overall.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Amari Cooper? The same one who had 45 receptions and 4 tds with one of their best qb's in a long, long time? The same one who will have a new qb that will rely on an even stronger rb group than last year? That's 17in ridiculous. The only receiver playing today worthy of a #2 pick was actually drafted #2, he's the only wr that is that big of a game changer to risk that high of a pick on.

 

[esplanade91]

I think 7 receivers went in the 2nd round this year. They're the next RB.

Next year will be more of the same. All DB's, LB's, OT's, and DL's.
