DawgTalkers.net Forums The Archives 2021 NFL Season 2021 NFL Draft Who don’t you want our divisional rivals to pick in Round 1? (Or beyond)

The Bengals are obviously going to have their choice of player. They’re not looking for a QB so I could see them moving down. They need to protect their QB so they should stay still and grab Oregon’s LT. Honestly I don’t care really what they do at their pick. It won’t be enough to get them past us in the talent department. If they do go LT I hope Myles breaks his will twice a season and stunts his growth overall.

I’ve seen two mocks that have Justin Fields falling far enough for the Stillers to grab him. The other had the Ravens moving up with their picks to grab him.
Both those scenarios suck.
I hated Dobbins going to the Ravens. I hate having to root against the kid... but I do. It’d break my heart to see Justin play in the AFCN.
Any Buckeye ending up on the enemy sucks.

Who from the first round of the draft don’t you want on another AFCN roster? Be it for emotional or talent reasons.
(Feel free to go deeper than the first if so inspired.)

Any player with sufficient talent to make life difficult for us.

Sure, but we argue here all day about why such and such a guy would be a great or bad pick for us... too small, too slow, too green... or ... he’s a beast, quick twitch, etc... yet if those same players end up on the Ravens or Steelers most posters will argue why they won’t work out... even though earlier in the week they were arguing why we should pick them.

So yes. I agree that we don’t want guys to get drafted for our rivals to stud out. But there are certain guys that would really suck to have to face.

I felt that way last year about Joe Burrow. I was bummed that the Bengals were in the position to draft him. Devin Bush getting drafted to the Stillers really sucked. He’s the exact type of player they turn in to pro bowlers.

This year there’s a couple WR I’d hate to play against in purple or black on Sundays. Waddle being one. I doubt he’ll fall but one never knows how the draft will play out. Positional runs, trades, and such.

I do not want the Bengals to select Kyle Pitts TE Florida. I think he has special talent. A huge match up problem.

I do not want the Steelers to draft Travis Eitenne RB Clemson. I think he is going to be one of those leads the NFL in total yardage type players running and receiving.

I do not want the Ravens to draft Azeez Ojulari DE/OLB Georgia. He just seems like one of those players that will be very successful at getting to the QB and hold it against the Browns for a decade for not drafting him.

The Bengals are always conservative and will take a LT ... Ok By Me

The Steelers need OL and will take one ... OK By Me

The Ravens need WR and will take one ... Ok By Me

Pretty much what Day of the Dawg said, but add in Zaven Collins for Pitt or Bal as well.

ok, let me clarify: I want all of them to draft like they're the 2010-2016 Browns.

I do not want the Bengals to take a LT, because their o-line tastes delicious. I also do not want them to take Kyle Pitts because he would destroy us. They can take Chase.

I do not want the Steelers to take a Tackle for the same reason. Take a running back. Harris from Alabama will do.

I do not want the Ravens (or Steelers) to take Ojulari, because I like our QB. The Ravens should take another deep threat WR for their QB to miss. Brown from North Carolina will do.

I like the question, because I can only answer it honestly by giving you beasts, beasts, really special players.

So, obviously, the top 15-25 players are always going to be special and are overly talked about.

I don't want any other team in the NFL, Especially the Steelers, Ravens or Bengals to take

Ihmir Smith-Marsette Wr Iowa. 6'1 179. He's going to be a STEAL for whomever gets him.
4.43 40 7.0 in the 3 cone.
14.4 yards per catch,
Hindered by a bad quarterback that really lowered his production. 110 catches, 1587 yds, 14 tds/
rushed for 4 tds and 247 yards.
and he's great from a 3rd option, or an outside Wr lineup.

Player #2.
I REALLY don't want to see him go to the steelers. (or Baltimore or Cincy either.
Creed Humphrey, OL Center, Oklahoma.
Look at his picture, it screams athlete, and fast, and they talk about his 33 inch verticle, for a center.
6'5 320, carries the weight well,
Big 12 player of the year.

Both of these guys, could go as early as the 1st round, in my mind.
Absolute Beasts! (in the good way) And Steals even if in the first round.

I really don't want to see him go to the steelers. X-3

Just like I really didn't want to see Orlando Brown jr. go to the Ravens, when they drafted him, (largely undiscussed when it happened, by the natl. media)...
and He just got traded for kings ransom.

I really don't want to see him go to the steelers. Don't let anybody read this.

I don't want to see the Ravens get Jaylen Phillips. Or Joseph Ossai or Terrence Marshall. LSU WRs always do well in the NFL

The Steelers I don't want to see them draft Najee Harris

As far as the Bengals goes, its Kyle Pitts or Jamar Chase.
I think Penei Sewell is really over rated.
But Pitts and Chase create matchup.issues.
Cincy might be trending up. It took a last second TD for the Browns
To beat them last year, porous oline and all

Player #3.
Najee Harris Rb. Alabama, 6'3 226
He's the total package.

I don't want to see him on any other team with any pick. I especially don't like the idea of
Najee Harris on either the
-Bills,-
-Steelers,-
-Ravens,- or
-Saints.-

The Bengals would probably find a way to ruin him. Actually the Bengals should probably pick him, 1st round after a trade down, (If I were trying to fix the Bengals, ... I want them to be a little bit good, so they can beat the steelers/ravens when you're counting on them to.)

my immediate gut reaction is I don't care.. we're gonna kick their ass...

maybe I'll have a different feeling when draft day comes...

I don't want Oweh on the field at the same time as Baker unless one is coming on while the other is coming off, or warmups/post-game/practice.

I don't want the Squeelers to get anymore Alabama players...

i.e. Najee Harris for starters.

They already have Minkah.
