One analyst referred to our first trade up as "Carolina traded a bag of Doritos to get their pick" (this was intended as a compliment on the difference in the trade items being essentially zero)

PFF calls our picks yesterday "very good" and "elite" https://www.pff.com/news/draft-2025-nfl-draft-grades-every-day-2-pick

NFL.com is giving us an A- grade for yesterday (and somehow, a C for Thursday? c'mon man....)

Let’s go crazy

Lynn Swann, legend, brings the funny

Gave up 85 and 146 to get Princelt. what does that leave us with now?

Traded up to take Princely.

Get those Dawgs, Dan

Don't hate this exchange for Nic.

Might be that Bryce got his guy From what they showed in the draft room, it appears on the surface that they come from similarly minded families/backgrounds (I mean this 100% as a positive comment)

I do appreciate the 16 minutes of classic NFL Films theme music in advance of the presser starting

The NFL south used to be The dominate (yet underrated) division. For a stretch in early 2000s, the NFC South was in every NFC championship game

That Bryce was involved and already did some off-season reps with T is a much better situation than last year

They're looking on schedule https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/draft/2025/04/24/nfl-draft-start-time-2025-watch-channels/83253232007/

HEY ZOD: I may have a conflict tonight for the first pick and may not be able to watch - so going to catch up via DVR. Can you lock the board down starting at 8:30pm for a few hours so none of tonight's picks will be spoiled for me until I can catch up? k thanks bye

IIRC: this is the first draft in a while that we've had as many picks as we have. WIll be fun to watch

Old Tep: "you're not allowed to bench anybody, Frank" New Tep: "Oh, you want to bench Bryce, Dave? Do what you need to do to win and turn us around" (also, New Tep: Somebody with a clue told Tep that Frank wasn't the solution - and Tep listened. Dave came in with a plan and shows promise after year one)

The Teps have been noticably more quiet and under the radar since the "throw drinks on a fan" incident As the owner, I expect to see Tep in the draft room. Even talking to whomever was picked on the phone, welcoming them to the team Based on how Dan/Dave worked last season (including benching Bryce), it appears like Dan/Dave are running the football operation the way they want to. Do I expect the occasional input of advice? Sure - but I hope that Dan/Dave have proven enough for Tep to know his input may be - probably should be? - rejected

We thought we would barely get 4 wins last season, and we got 5.... and were surprisingly uber-competitive in the few that we should have won if it had not been for those meddling kids (looking at you, Eagles and KC...) Thinking the over is within reach

Clips like this help paint a better picture of how "building the team" is more firmly in the hands of D-Mo and *team management* rather than assumptions of it being driven by Tep

unsure if I'd click on a xxxxxxxxx.com.ng URL not like the .ng domain is any more/less safe than an unheard-of .com site, but still....

Why are we called out as "FA losers" in this piece? https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2025-nfl-free-agency-live-updates-tracking-latest-signings-trades-rumors-on-aaron-rodgers-russell-wilson/live/
