[quote=FlyerSkin;1170169][B]Nicholson should be seen strictly as depth.[/B] Guy has potential, but that isn't saying much since we have a glaring need at S. He grows a pair and gets more physical with his play, he will contribute. MSU defensively this past season was somewhat disappointing to say the least, and he was a part of that.[/quote]

And special teams. These are the rounds where you look to fill out ST and hope for an eventual starter in the process.

[quote=sevier2;1170173]I would have gladly taken Asiata(G), Brantley(DT) or King(DB) with my limited research. But hey i'm just a bartender what do I know.

Every other pick has me very excited, this one just seemed.... eh.[/quote]

I agree. Boy, what a reach...I have to wonder if t gray maybe help eye this guy as a target. Maybe someone he scouted and admired a couple years ago.

Head scratcher overall. I was hoping for an interior Oline man there.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Asiata is still there; also some decent NT's (Vincent Taylor, Stevie Tu'ikolovatu)

Thing is all the really good safeties are gone. Nicholson does have a lot of potential, just has to unlock his inner beast. He is about the same as Swearinger. If he really puts the effort into it he can be a starter.

Thing is we are not set at safety. Even with the acquisition of Swearinger, we really don't have a really good S. Cravens will probably pan out, but I am worried if he can stay on the field, thus is why I stated before he is for depth. Once Peppers and the other top safeties were picked, the FO did the best they could. I wouldn't get discouraged that much about this pick. He was a decent S, just didn't have a killer instinct.

Jeremy Sprinkle

Solid pick. V. Davis can't play forever. PFF compared him to Julius Thomas.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

There goes Asiata.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

Yes, solid pick.
We need a little TE depth.
Our draft class is now sprinkled with talent.

Solid pick again...lotta potential. Can block and catch the ball. Really a solid prospect...we killed it here

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

I think Sprinkle can potentially contribute in two TE sets in the Redzone immediately. He's a good blocker and a good receiver. He can contribute on Rushing and PA plays especially. He also lined up at Fullback a bit, so maybe he can also help Perine punch it in.

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

reed, davis, paul, carrier, and now sprinkle.

i guess sprinkle is the only blocker?

Paul or Carrier, or both maybe, are gone now.

lol apparently mayock bout had it with the show portion of the draft. Kinda would be cool to have him in the organization

Re: 2017 NFL draft rounds 4-7
 

i would snag kaaya if he's still there in the 6th. i would have said peterman or kaaya, but bills got peterman.

some form of interior o-lineman also in the 6th.
