jidady 9,447 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Matt Ryan wound up as the #10 QB for 2020 with a PFF rating of 83.9. We had no players on PFF's 1st or 2nd team All-Pro rankings. You can see who made the list here: https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-pff-all-pro-team-aaron-rodgers-davante-adams-aaron-donald-and-t-j-watt-highlight-pffs-all-pro-roster We had one player make the All-Rookie team, but it's not the one you'd think. https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-all-rookie-team-chargers-justin-herbert-qb-vikings-justin-jefferson-washington-chase-young "LB Mykal Walker, Atlanta Falcons If going purely off counting stats such as tackles, the all-rookie linebackers would be players like Kenneth Murray and Patrick Queen, who started for their respective defenses and piled up numbers. The PFF grades tell a different story, with Murray earning a PFF grade of 54.7 on the season and Queen coming in as one of the lowest-graded linebackers in the league at 29.8. Walker is one of the players who shined in a more limited role. Across 371 defensive snaps this season, he earned a 74.7 overall grade that included a 90.7 grade in coverage. Walker allowed just 74 passing yards into his coverage on 152 coverage snaps all season. He may not have the same stats as several of the other rookie linebackers across the league, but his play warrants some recognition here." The rookie corners on their list are L'Jarius Sneed (73.9) and Cameron Dantzler (70.9). AJ Terrell finished at 60.8 after slumping a bit during the last month. The site has also posted a mock draft: https://www.pff.com/news/draft-2021-nfl-mock-draft-zach-wilson-new-york-jets-san-francisco-49ers-move-up-justin-fields It goes: 1) Jacksonville -- Trevor Lawrence 2) Jets -- Zach Wilson 3) Dolphins -- Sewell 4) SF trading up to our spot -- Justin Fields 5) Bengals -- Ja'Marr Chase 6) Eagles -- Trey Lance 7) Detroit -- Kwity Paye 8. Carolina -- Micah Parsons 9) Denver -- Patrick Surtain 10) Dallas -- Caleb Farley 11) NY Giants -- Devonta Smith 12) Falcons (you riot in 3...2...1...) -- Kyle Pitts, TE - Florida I would be extremely pleased with this scenario if one of those two corners were on the board at #12. I actually quite like Pitts, but I think we all know this team needs defense, defense, defense. PFF doesn't suggest compensation, but a jump from #12 to #4 should cost SF something like #43, #108, and a second round pick in 2022. That would give us picks at #12, #35, #43, #68, #99, and #108 this year plus three picks in the top 60 next year. Ergo Proxy, blknoble357 and Herr Doktor 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

celtiksage 1,895 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Love it. And yes if Surtain or Farley fell just a little to us, otherwise it's also in line with Rousseau (or the other DE). Maybe even a DT here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One can hope. 🤣 I mean, Hurst had an inconsistent year overall but showed he could at least replace the PRODUCTION of Hooper; despite not being as consistent or reaching his potential with Ryan yet. 2 more years of control. No. We don’t need a TE. Draft the RB like people wanted last year in round 2. Load up on picks if we can but improve OL and Defense every other pick. Maybe a mid-round TE if Graham ain’t it as depth moving forward. Their analysis has some weight but this hurried mock for us is just dumb.

Atlantafan21 10,901 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 That wouldn’t be a bad trade, but who we end up taking would be terrible, no offense to Pitts. No matter how you feel about Hurst, tightend should be the least of our worries on our roster right now. Also, LOL at the Lions taking Paye over Parsons and Surtain. That’d be such a massive mistake.

etherdome 6,314 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I would thoroughly vet Fields. If he is a mature young man, I would draft him and sit him behind Ryan for a season. Next year, Ryan could fetch us two second rounders. If Fields turns out to be another Jeff George, Newton, or even Vick, I make the trade and possibly try to trade back again. There is bound to be a very good FS or RB prospect that fits us well. Godzilla1985 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm saying you take "chart equivalent" compensation for a potential franchise QB, which the team trading with you obviously thinks, then we truly deserve what we get.

At #3, I think we had a better chance at an overpay. It's pretty rare for situations like Julio Jones and Ricky Williams where teams give up massive compensation for a guy who doesn't go in the top three. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
