Did our little hockey group here just galvanize a little?! @Stumpywe need us a meme!

I totally agree on wasting a draft pick on one this draft. Get an udfa and a FA and plow on to the next draft.

This

42 units is up 42 units. Don't stress over amount or totals. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

Read what you wrote again. The combine is all about the players who will be in the draft. It is going to generate draft talk by its very nature.

I don't know if Leo C can or not--not really well read about the free agents.

Combine and free agency are front and center. Just hard to get too serious about predicting the draft before those things are wrapped up and we see what they are doing in terms of visits.

We do need a guy that can cover.

Supposedly, his college coach (defensive coordinator) Jim Leonhard is the new Defensive Coordinator in Buffalo. Matt Milano and Shaq Thompson (starters) are free agents. Buffalo will switch to a 3-4 and will seek LBs. I predict that Leo Chenal goes there. In college, he flourished under Leonhard who used him aggressively in the blitz packages. So I dunno. Buffalo is over the cap, but nothing they can't work out. I predict he becomes a Bill, but money talks. I agree with you about Devin Lloyd. Every year, there are players who command more money than they are worth. Morgan needs to stay in his lane.

Well we don’t have anything to talk about so…..

To be fair, my day is the 24th, but the wife plans a few celebrations. Had dinner with friends at Capital Grille one night, Blackberry Smoke concert another, and this weekend in Vegas. Happy Birthday

I like the kings to beat la but wouldn't wager on it. My 2 plays tonight. lose both and still up like 42 of my measly units this weekend

We have free agency coming up that will shape draft needs. The brunt of their draft work is just beginning.

I love Charlotte, it's where I'm planning to retire. But if I was 25-30 years old and making $10M+ a year, it would be WAAAAAAYYYY down the list of cities I'd want to live in.

What does it actually say ?

Dave is gonna be flapping those wings over the defense now. At least some. I picked this up it was interesting… if you watch his interview on the team site with Anish, not the presser, he talks about his first year. He had nothing to do with the defense. Evero had autonomy (my words). Which is what a lot of us thought was the setup. Apparently some involvement last year, but marginal. My words again. Spreading those wings this year. Wonder if we get some turf wars.

He sucks

How much does he want to sign? There are things were aren’t privy too that drive these decisions sometimes.

According to the trade value chart I looked at 51 is 390. 100 gets you to 41. Even ahead of NO. 19 is worth 875. We could pick up 95 points going from 19 to just 22. Math isn’t my strong point but that says, think again. https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart.asp Happy to consult another chart I know they vary.

He had a great combine and he'll get drafted. I would grab him if he's available in round 4 or later. If Canales is the QB whisperer that they say he is, he could get him in a position to compete with Young.

Well yeah I am saying that for all the rants about it and begging to to be delivered from this poo, that I have done, the present situation doesn’t have the urgency compared to our other issues. We will Not be replacing him this year. So let’s be practical and use our draft assets to get level off of this Icky thing. The center thing. This ILB thing. Hell even as anti as I am towards giving him yet more weapons, I recognize the value of a complimentary speed WR. We don’t know about Brooks so need to cover RB past Etienne. We really need a power back. IMO. And so on with 2 or 3 other positions. Like I don’t even think a 5th should be used to draft a QB. Absent some crazy poo happening.

I like Chenal, he’s elite run defender. What our defense needs is a 3-down LB that can cover. Lloyd is exactly what we’re looking for

Polian? Interesting. You give bad credit to spending money for building parts of the team- but give Polian an A for doing the same thing. Good conversation. Based on my opinion.

@toldozer - Up decent for the weekend, going to let half of it ride on an NBA parlay.

Damn Logan Jones had a good day too. Was high on him coming in as he anchored that top Iowa line and is a fire plug inside. He's gonna be 25 to start the season so maybe he slips into the 4th but I doubt it, even if C isn't a premium position. His play on the field was top notch and the combine boosted it again. Arm length is about the only knock. But guy is plug and play at C. This is a loaded class at C. Need to grab one.
