One riser, one faller

[YardRat]

Any thoughts on what players may stand out as a surprise first round pick higher than expected, and somebody that falls into the second round?

Considering depth of the position, his relative inexperience, and alleged hammy issues, I think CB Marshon Lattimore drops significantly, maybe even down into the second round and the third corner taken off the board.

As far as a riser, I think somebody falls in love with OLB Tim Williams and he goes in the first, maybe even top 20.

You?

OJ Howard doesn't go in the top 12.

Not saying he doesn't have the talent too. But not in this particular draft.

Re: One riser, one faller

Riser - Peppers SS Michigan. He can do so many things but the way he closes on tacklers and just destroys them stands out. Hybrid guy who could line up close to the LOS and cover anyone, let alone blitz. Would fit the Bills D like a glove.

Faller - John Ross WR Washington - 4.22 blinders wearing off. He's actually a good WR and has the production to prove it.. The issues are his very long injury history and committing big money to a guy with a slight frame with small hands who drops too man balls and can be pushed around.

Riser: one of the offensive linemen (Robinson, Bolles, Ramczyk, if one goes early maybe the top 3 go top 15

Faller: Kizer and/or D. Watson fall to round 2

Re: One riser, one faller

Riser - Jabrill Peppers. He can play safety and linebacker. Nickel defense 70% of the time? Like Night Train said above, Peppers fits McDermott's defense like a glove.

The Biggest Riser? - Mitch Trubisky. I think he goes to the 49ers.

Fallers - Deshone Kizer and DeShaun Watson. Any GM that spends a draft pick on Kizer or Watson should be fired immediately.

Don't go there, Doug.

Re: One riser, one faller

I think Lattimore might be the 3rd or 4th CB off the board due to his injury history.

Reddick as my riser, I think he's the first LB off the board.

Yeah, dude's got that Antoine Winfield style of tackling. Pure aggression. Keeps it low for sure take-downs.

Don't hurt that he can return too.
