@Undisciplined overall the Raiders draft was solid. Totally telegraphed the style they're going to. Oline Oline Oline, run the ball, smash mouth football. Laube is a great pick up.
I wonder if you've got your eyes set on one of the QBs next year, shadeur sanders for example? Although you could have had rattler at 148 before the saints got him at 150.
I was really happy with the day 3 picks and JPJ is a born Raider.
Even if I never think they made the right 1st round pick, I am excited to see what Bowers can do. It will be hard not to compare it to what might have been, though: JPJ and Fuaga on the right side of the line.
How do you feel about Days 2 and 3 for the Vikings?

I think they're setting the stage. Buying the land first a building the foundations before putting the house on it. Went heavy on the oline investment. I think raiders have signalled. We're building and coming for our QB next off-season. Then they coming for the league. That defense an oline giving time, ooooffff you might just have yourselves a stew going.
I think our day 3 was alright, I'm stoked about khyree Jackson, he's a helluva CB. Then came after a backup tackle and a center, that's cool. The kicker pick was a bit of a head scratcher. Kickers are a dime a dozen down the seven eleven, but this kid is record holding, so sure, let's see what's up, it was only a 6th anyway.
I'd have liked to have addressed DT sooner than the 7th, but here we are and I think Rodriguez can be a great rotational piece with lots of development.

At least you have a good track record drafting kickers: we're enjoying Daniel Carlson tremendously. Thanks for giving up on him way too early.
Is J.J. going to be the day 1 starter at QB?
