Just selected Thuney. It seemed everyone wanted to select a center and we just discussed a couple without a consensus. Think he's criminally underrated and is the only day 1 starter remaining at the position

He did but he profiles as an interior guy at the next level. Most teams have been working him out at center. Bit of an unknown in the scouting process for whatever reason. He's done nothing but prove to be worth of a day 2 pick by acing film study, combine, and pro day workouts. I recommend everyone to give him a watch, he really stands out.
Isaac Suemalo was my other center convert in the draft, and he went a couple picks after.

Ive watched his game against clemson and FSU. He did pretty good but not spectacular which is why I asked about him playing center and if there is any footage because Id be curious how hed do.
He does have a good base and footwork though.

His Clemson game is money. Only allowing one pressure from my top pass rusher, Shaq Lawson. There's a few pro day videos of him taking snaps. This is the most favorable scouting report I've seen on him, suggesting he can play center. This report also discusses his ability and experience at center.
As a sophomore, he was listed as the starting center heading into camp until a bigger need at tackle opened up.
In this combine interview, he discusses his comfort at the center (and interior line) position. Even says the Rams talked to him. After watching him extensively (I've drafted him in every mock I've done  ), I don't doubt he can smoothly transition there.

We pick twice tomorrow. Who does everyone like? My BPA board took a ton of hits in the last few 10-20 picks: Daniel Lasco, Michael Thomas, Daniel Braveman, Marquez North, Devon Cajuste, Tyrone Holmes. And I know we don't need one, but CB James Bradberry is an insane value at this point.
I am going to explore a trade like usual. If an offer is worth considering then I'll share it with everyone.

Just completed the draft, if anyone cares
Round 1, Pick 4 (4) (From Cowboys): QB Carson Wentz, North Dakota State
Round 2, Pick 25 (56): CB Kendall Fuller, Virginia Tech
Round 3, Pick 19 (83) (From Buccaneers): WR Malcolm Mitchell, Georgia
Round 4, Pick 26 (124) (From Seahawks): C Joe Thuney, NC State
Round 5, Pick 9 (148) (From Buccaneers): WR Michael Thomas, Southern Miss
Round 5, Pick 11 (150) (From Seahawks, CHI, ARZ): TE Devon Cajuste, Stanford
Round 6, Pick 15 (190): RB Daniel Lasco, California
Not too bad all things considered. Came into the draft with 6 picks, traded up for our QB, and left the draft with 7 picks. And filled every need. I'm trying my best to get one more pick in the draft. There's one more TE I would love to have to compete with Cajuste.

Due to all the DB's we have, I decided to trade Marcus Roberson for the selection of TE Stephen Anderson from Cal. If there's a UDFA, I'll be sure to add another CB.
Anderson gives us a dynamic move TE (similar to Aaron Hernandez, Jordan Reed) that can be used all over the field. Can't block but that's okay. Hopefully the addition of him, Cajuste, Thomas, Mitchell, and Lasco will provide Wentz with enough weapons to succeed.

We do. Not sure if we can trust him to transition to TE day 1. Might be a learning curve. I think he profiles as a better blocker, where I wouldn't feel comfortable trusting Anderson to do the same. Cajuste can also player WR as well on day 1.
Not too worried about having too many good TE's
