Re: 2024 NFL DRAFT ROUND 1 THREAD

Seems like a good pick to me. Tired of Secondary or WR that don't play.

Get to the Chopper

by HalCHorn Thu Apr 25, 2024 10:46 pm

Definitely committing to the new defensive system with this pick. Robinson has the tools, it will all be about coachability.

by CarsonChris Thu Apr 25, 2024 10:46 pm

We needed a pass rusher. Wish the Chopper was 270

One thing I noticed the past few years is that this Dolphins defense is slow. We are changing that this offseason with the additions of Jordyn Brooks and Chop Robinson. Those dudes are FAST. Chop ran a 4.48 at 253 pounds!!

I predict another Grier bust. 5 sack player on a good defense. Two sack player on this line.

by CarsonChris Thu Apr 25, 2024 10:53 pm

Cam Smith will keep the left side of the bench warm while Chopper keeps the right side warm.

by CarsonChris Thu Apr 25, 2024 10:54 pm

The line still a mess

by CarsonChris Thu Apr 25, 2024 10:54 pm

Where's the center and two guards?

by CarsonChris Thu Apr 25, 2024 10:55 pm

The best DT in the draft was still available.

Yeah, so do I. But he's only a few pounds lighter than Phillips was when he came out, and Phillips is much taller. Once he develops a bit more, I think Chop is going to be a beast. He fits the mold of a Ravens OLB...smaller but fast as hell.

Quinyon Mitchell would have been a better value, but I really wanted a pass rusher so I can't complain too much. I'm excited about the possibilities with Chop - just have to hope he puts the work in and gets there.

Jags took WR Brian Thomas. Glad the Bills didn't get him!!

I heard Newton has a foot injury that is scaring teams away...but who knows.

If You read the Scouting report on ESPN, He is more than just a Pass Rusher. I will give the Guy a chance before calling him a BW.

by **JMP** Thu Apr 25, 2024 11:00 pm

Lions just traded up with Cowboys.

by finskev Thu Apr 25, 2024 11:00 pm

Newton has a 2nd round grade so he wouldn’t be a BPA at 21.

Yep. I wish he had more production in college, but his speed and skillset has me excited. he is also strong against the run.

We got the next Phillip Merling

by **JMP** Thu Apr 25, 2024 11:07 pm

The Dolphins got screwed with Verse and Fautanu coming off the board right before they picked. I think they would have taken one of them for sure. But Fautanu was the last of the top OL IMO, so I'm glad we didn't go OL at 21.

by finskev Thu Apr 25, 2024 11:07 pm

Damn, I was wrong about Newton he does have a 1st rd grade.

by **JMP** Thu Apr 25, 2024 11:07 pm

Lions took CB Terrion ARnold. Nice pick.

He did, but his injury is moving him way down.

Merling was SLOOOOWWWWW. Chop is a speed demon. He's going to really add a new dimension and he's a good fit for the new D.

by **JMP** Thu Apr 25, 2024 11:20 pm

Chop is 21 years old with elite burst/explosiveness, speed and athleticism. This kid is going to be fun to watch, and I predict he's going to become a fan favorite even though it seems like most Dolfans hate the pick now. He's young and has a high ceiling with elite traits at a premium position...can't ask for much more than that at pick 21.

by **JMP** Thu Apr 25, 2024 11:20 pm

Fan favorite Barton to the Bucs.
