Mel Kipers Draft 3.0

 

 

31. Denver Broncos

Jason Spriggs, OT, Indiana

Spriggs was one of the big winners in Indy. He's inconsistent on tape, but his size (just over 6-foot-5½) and athleticism (he crushed the short shuttle and 40 at the combine) make him an appealing prospect, especially in Denver's zone-blocking scheme. Adding depth up front will be one of the Broncos' top offseason priorit

Matt Miller has Spriggs going #16 to the Lions.



16. Detroit Lions—T Jason Spriggs, Indiana

He's a little raw, and the tape shows it imo. He might be a 1st round lock in past drafts, but not with all the good tackles in this one. 

Well he didn't make the 1st round.  :(  Hopefully he will go quickly in the 2nd.  :)

I think Garnett will be a good fit for the Niners but I was disappointed we moved up for O-line and didn't pick Spriggs. It's funny, the trade-up was almost EXACTLY what I predicted except the player.

I will add the team analysts I trust most played their audio for that pick to show how underwhelmed they were and the two names excitedly yelled when guessing who the pick was were "Jack" and "Spriggs".

Not much of a compensation, but he won't last in the next round.

I remember saying I wouldn't want the Colts to draft Spriggs that high and I got backlash. Guess I wasn't the only one now.

How high did you expect/would be good for you?

He will be an early second rounder, I would have taken him at the end of the first for the fifth year option.

Mid second is where I would've been comfortable.
