I took WR Austin Carr from Northwestern with pick 220. We're on the clock for our final pick tomorrow morning at 10:40 or perhaps sooner.
No idea why Carr is rated so low or wasn't invited to the combine. He played well vs OSU made the All Big 10 teams on merit. Corey Davis played well vs OSU in 2015 and is a top prospect while Carr similarly plays well and is expected to go undrafted. |

We finished our draft with Tulane DT Tanzel Smart. I don't know anything about him but that CBS had him ranked as the 141st best player overall and PFF had his at 96 overall. So he's probably good value at pick 230.
Final draft:
1 Derek Barnett
2 Jarrad Davis
3A Pat Elflein
3B Carl Lawson
4A Noah Brown
4B Stevie Tu'ikolovatu
5 James Conner
6A Will Likely
6B Austin Carr
7 Tanzel Smart
We traded our 2nd and 4th round picks to Denver for their 2nd and 3rd. We traded our 6th round pick to Cleveland for Demario Davis (who we don't need) and their 2018 4th round pick. |

Free agency outcome:
We spent most of the team's cap space but haven't cut anyone yet.
We got Randy Gregory on waivers. We extended Burfict and restructured Green.
FA losses are Kirkpatrick, Peko, Dansby, and Winston. FA additions are Andre Smith, Steven Hauschka, James Harrison, Jeron Johnson, Michael Mauti, Chris Carter, and a flock of veteran CBs (Greg Toler, Shareece Wright, Kyle Arrington).
We kept our other free agents including Whitworth, Zeitler (signed for 4 years), LaFell, and Burkhead. We kept the O-line together with Pat Elflein added to challenge Bodine. We added pass rush with Carter and Harrison in free agency and Barnett and Lawson in the draft. We're deep at CB but if Pacman is suspended, then we'll be starting Dennard and WJ3. |
