Could BC compete with Corbett at center? Or is he being groomed for RT if Ickey works out?

Agreed. That felt like a genuine take backed by experience, but what Steelers fans didn’t experience was our WR room last year. They don’t know how desperate we are for WRs who can get open.

Hunt, just so I know that contract was worth it.

I’d go Williams, Boyd, Gallup for my preference of those three. At this point, I’d prefer to wait and see what we, and other teams acquire, in the draft at WR.

Good to know. It’s aggravating the Huddle software can’t make it work, but better than nothing I guess.

That’s not a terrible throw. It’s Mingo having some of the worst field awareness since Dan Orlovsky was playing QB.

Jaycee has his own issues (injury related), but those who were so adamant we should have drafted Fields instead appear…..wrong.

Ben Sinnott is our next Wesley Walls

I like the building up of the trenches. I like the idea of giving Dionte a tryout as #1WR. I like that we allowed Evero to get his guys for his defense. I like that we didn’t just reward guys with long term contracts that weren’t helping us win football games.

The Bears finished last in their division in 2023. The goal is to make the playoffs and win a Super Bowl. They will likely surpass the Vikings this year, but I don’t see the playoffs in their immediate future. The Lions and Packers look better and are young. My personal hope is we make the playoffs before they do. We will then remind them of the trade that got us there.

There are just so many X WRs in this draft, it makes signing Williams less necessary. I think Keon Coleman, Adonai Mitchell, Xavier Legette, or even Johnny Wilson could fulfill our need for a bigger WR. Plus, it would be on a rookie contract and someone to grow with our offense.

Enough posts have been made about the embedding issue. It’s a board software issue. Not a Juan issue. It’s happening to many other posters, including myself. He’s not being impatient. He could sit and stare at the link for 10 minutes, it’s not going to embed. As for the signing…I like it. Looks like a bit of an upgrade from V Bell and 3 years younger too.

Those stats account for the last two years. Burns was much better two years ago (most likely effort related), while Wonnum had a worse year in 2022. They graded Burns 20 points higher at pass rushing and Wonnum 9 points higher at rush defense over that two year period. No one is saying Wonnum is of equal talent to Burns. But he’ll put up 55%+ of Burns pass rush production and likely better rush defense for ~30% cost.

That’s CB Kendall Fuller. We’re hosting S Jordan Fuller.

They’re probably drafting Nabers.

Legette will be more AJ Brown than Mingo imo. He has plenty of speed on film.

I get the same “Copy Link” option to share post, but the share button I click on to get there is different. My Twitter app is updated. Not sure why ours look different.

No lies detected. I’ll send you my Twitter, or is it X, profile and see if you can auto draft my payment.

I tried that yesterday while discussing it with another poster. Didn’t auto embed after editing the url.

I go the same route, and it pastes as “x.com” link.

There are many of us that can’t get the tweet to automatically embed. Juan’s link has an “x.com” link. Same for me. They don’t embed automatically. Yours is probably pulling a “Twitter.com” link and those seem to work.

Naw (in Legette voice) I’d trade Mingo for a mid round pick if it meant we get Legette.

I’d prefer to trade down to mid 2nd round with #33, acquire an extra day 2 pick, and use the mid 2nd on Legette. I just don’t think he’ll be there in the 3rd. There are a couple of other WRs I’d like to draft too, but that’s my ideal scenario for Legette.

Not a UofSC fan, but the stats will show a one year wonder. This article does a good job of summarizing his college career: https://www.postandcourier.com/sports/carolina/gamecocks-xavier-legette-is-overlooked-no-longer/article_4f212004-52fb-11ee-8627-7bf360310517.html I think we’d be crazy to pass on this guy. As fun as it is to mock draft him in the 3rd round, I highly doubt he’s still there after round 2.
