Would they go Fitzpatrick over James?

From what Ive heard, they are extremely high on both and I haven't heard a delineation between the two. I think it would be really unlikely if both are there...it really depends if an OT and WR is reached (very well could happened, extremely limited FA/elite prospects at both positions) before us.

Both are what teams crave from back line defenses...ball hawks and scheme/package versatility. Its not about Free vs Strong anymore. And from what Ive seen and read, Minkah gets the slight edge in both.

I can't wait until Thursday lol

Listening to Greg Cosell break them down he says Minkah is more versatile, James is a freak athletically but more of an in the box type of safety. And he did mention Sean Taylor in comparing their measurables.

I’d be pretty happy with either one.

I really doubt either is there at 13. Question is would you even consider jumping to 10 and brother Gruden if one still remains?

Here are 11 players that are probably gone before pick #13, so one or the other should be available. (or both)

1) Darnold QB
2) Barkley RB
3) Nelson G
4) Rosen QB
5) Chubb DE
6) Allen QB
7) Ward CB
8) Mayfield QB
9) Davenport DE
10) Edmunds LB
11) Smith LB

no special order

I doubt Davenport or ward go before minkah and james. That would be shocking to me.

But of course i could see somebody trading up to get lamar jackson.

Obviously there are always shockers, but minkah and james are both top 10 guys.

Thrilled with either as well. What I really like about Minkah:

•Extremely competitive play demeanor with a history of showing up big in the biggest games

•Has nine career interceptions and four pick-sixes (4 pick sixes is a record at Alabama)


What you get with both, around the LOS both are extremely good at rushing the passer, blitzing off corner. This is something only few Safeties can do well.

#Redskins Doug Williams says guard is not an absolute priority in the draft. On Alex Smith: "We got the best third-round pick in the draft."

Means we are taking a G lol JK

Buttering up my girl tonight with taking her to dinner so I can do some serious draft watching Thursday-Saturday.

Denzel Ward is my final guess as we get lucky again with a top 10 talent falling to us.

Cooley was gushing about Edmunds today, said he would be his top choice of all the possibilities at 13

Just listened to it. The closer we get to the draft, the more I hear and understand the "100% BPA over need" approach, the idea of getting a real baller/future All Pro truly is exciting.
I'm still worried about our DL, but if we get a playmaker in the front 7 in Tremaine Edmunds, and Allen, Ioannidis and Taylor stay healthy... it would still be an improved version of our defense at the beginning of last season.

All Cooley pre draft breakdowns, it's pretty obvious LB Tremaine Edmunds and S Derwin James are the 2 he likes the most, and Guice the one he likes the least, Payne and Vea he likes but not at 13:

Derrius Guice

DaRon Payne and Vita Vea

Minkah Fitzpatrick and Derwin James

Roquan Smith and Tremaine Edmunds
