#342: Dash To The Draft 2022 (AFC South Draft Recap with Cole Thompson)

1. Jaguars -In the long run you think Travon Walker’s production will end up matching his jaw-dropping traits?   -Several analysts, including Mark Schofield, pointed out Lloyd’s underrated Micah Parsons-esque versatility to rush off the edge as well as play that off-ball LB position. Right after this pick was made, I envisioned a sub-package with Lloyd and Josh Allen on the edge and Travon Walker kicking inside, where many believe he could really feast as a pass rusher. Given that the Jaguars selected another LB on Day 2 with Chad Muma, who is a very instinctive, “QB of the defense” kind of player, can you see Jacksonville using such a sub-package quite often? -The Jaguars spent the first of their two third-round picks on Kentucky C Luke Fortner. Do you think he starts Week 1? 2. Texans -Based on your understanding, why did the Texans prefer Derek Stingley, Jr. instead of the more proven Sauce Gardner? -Why did the Texans opt for Kenyon Green over Johnson? -On Day 2, the Texans selected two more very promising defensive prospects in Baylor S Jalen Pitre and Alabama LB Christian Harris. If you had to pick one, which one of those two players would you say is more likely to become a long-term piece on defense for the Texans? -Would you be surprised if John Metchie becomes the go-to guy for Davis Mills on third down at some point this season?                3.  Colts -As good as a player as Alec Pierce is, he is extremely similar to Michael Pittman. What differences, if any, exist in Pierce’s game that can complement Pittman’s game well?  -Do you expect Jelani Woods to get significant work as that in-line, blocking TE for the Colts this season? -Why do you think Bernhard Raimann fell all the way to the third round? Will he be the Colts starting left tackle Week 1? 4. Titans -Do you believe Treylon Burks will be a long-term upgrade over A.J. Brown? -How high were you on Roger McCreary during the pre-draft process and do you think he can be a top 10-15 corner in the league despite his lack of length and middling athleticism?  -Can you see Malik Willis taking over this offense as early as some time next season? 5. Name a player (either drafted or UDFA) from each team we have not yet discussed that you think will have a successful NFL career -Jaguars: Montaric Brown -Texans: Teagan Quitoriano -Colts: Nick Cross -Titans: Hassan Haskins
