Having crossed paths with Douglas in Baltimore when both served in the scouting department, Jeremiah has full confidence that the Green & White's new GM can get the job done.
"Joe is a couple of things," the eighth-year NFL Network analyst said. "He's very disciplined, he's smart and he believes in building a team a certain way. It's going to start with toughness and physicality, which is just the way that he was raised in Baltimore in that organization. Being able to protect the quarterback, being able to get after the quarterback is the identity that you're going to find with him. Again, I just think it's an offseason for your quarterback Sam Darnold. What do you have to do to get him some help and to see if he can take that next step? I think Joe is as good as it gets in getting that done."
With four current picks in the top 80 of the draft — a first-rounder, one second and two thirds — Douglas has the flexibility to create depth at many positions in need and address the most critical areas of the roster. However, the possibility of trading down and gaining more draft capital remains a realistic option.
"I would almost think you'd be more likely to go the other way," Jeremiah said. "To slide back and collect more picks in the second-, third-, fourth-round range is kind of the sweet spot for some of the needs we mentioned [offensive line, edge, wide receiver]. That's a good place to park yourself and they're going to get some of those needs done. They've got a good staff. It's a great group. When you believe in your staff, to me you have more freedom to say, 'hey, let's get more picks, let's slide back and get more picks to get more shots at this thing."
