Predict what to expect from each pick this year

[slashsteel]

(who will start)(who goes to the PS)(who gets cut)

T.J. Watt, LB, Wisconsin -Out of the gate he splits carries with Debo. He won't be named the starter, but that won't stop him from seeing the field.

JuJu Smith-Schuster, WR, USC - He will split caries out of the gate in the slot, by seasons end the job will be his..

Cameron Sutton, CB, Tennessee.He will play inside early splitting time with Gay, and by seasons end the
job will be his.

James Connor, RB, Pittsburgh - He will win the number 2 job behind Bell. Not that that should be a difficult task.

Joshua Dobbs, QB, Tennessee- He will play significantly in preseason, then settle in at number 3. For this season.

Brian Allen, DB, Utah - He will play well on the outside, making the roster. But won't see time this year.

Colin Holba, LS, Louisville - Warren will announce retirement. And they will roll the dice with him as their new LS.

Keion Adams, DE, Western Michigan - He will flash in training camp. Then will be put on the PS. Only to be gobbled up by some team in the second half of the season.

No undrafted make this years 53.

Watt- will be a situational pass rusher unless injury pulls Dupree or Deebo off the field. He will put up Jarvis like rookie numbers or get hurt.

JuJu- Will become the #2 once Martavis gets banned from the league, he'll see significant snaps even if Martavis somehow finds a way to keep his piss clean...err shows up to pee.

Sutton- will challenge Gay/Sensabaugh for the third spot, likely will end up the 4th DB though and will primarily be watching unless someone gets hurt.

Connor- will be the number 2 unless Tombert gets their collective heads out of their *** and brings in legit FA competition for the back up role. Love the kids story and guts but 3 ypc seems to me his NFL potential which won't lock down a 2 spot for long.

Dobbs- here's the clip board kid and have fun running the scout team. You can even suit up for a couple of games this year to be Landry's backup when Ben goes down for a couple/few games.

Allen- shipped to ps, instantly picked up by another team. He'll likely go on to be the successful man cover corner...somewhere else where they don't play 10-15 yard cushions.

Holba- starter at LS! Woo hoo, thanks for your service Warren but this kid is 1/3-1/4 of your cost. Otherwise complete waste of pick.

Adams- ps unless we pick up FA MLB. If we pick up some MLB depth Moats could become expendable and this kid could make the 53 as the 9th-10th LB.

Holy crap...these predictions make me want to go drink.

I expect that Watt and JuJu will play a lot and contribute....maybe Sutton gets in on some passing situations. Other than that I'm not a big fan of picks 4 through 7. Dobbs is smart and very athletic, however if you were not accurate in college, it will be worse in the NFL. I really dislike the pick. He's not going to be Ben's replacement and people should stop saying that. I would much rather have Landry Jones back there as the #2. The rest of the guys...meh. I think we hit big on our first 2 picks though.

Man I think some here are taking Connor way too lightly. This kid before he got ill put up some damn good numbers. Hell, last year he was at best at 60% and still put up decent numbers. This was not a charity pick but one that the team feels will benefit then as a more than capable backup. He's 100% now and I expect good things from him.
Not bad at catching the all out of the backfield either. I think everyone will be surprised at what he will bring next time Bell goes down and he will miss more time based on his history,

I would say slash is as right as that sweet lady picture of his. My only disagreement is I'd say Sutton is 50-50 seeing the field. Allen is a super easy practice squad stash. He doesn't tackle well enough for SP teams and two raw to put in the sub packages.

Y'all better get used to Conner because if Bell gets hurt, he's gonna pull the wagon their teams his violent running. He is a legit RB and will be very solid. It's not just his story, the kid can play and he can flat out wear other teams down

Yeah after I threw it up, I started thinking Sensabaugh will have a impact on Sutton's playing time. A good competition problem to have.

On Allen I think his talent level although raw is enough, I might not want to see him stashed on the PS. As if he shows as I think he will. In training camp, I wouldn't want to risk another team snatching him up later in the season.Similar to our raw OLBer last year...........
