Linebacker is one of the hardest positions to adapt to in the NFL. Most don’t hit their stride until the tail end of their rookie contracts. Look no further than Devin Lloyd, highly drafted and didn’t really breakout until last season. I am on the fence about Trevin he definitely is still adapting to NFL speed. But honestly wouldn’t be surprised to see him be a solid starter next season with upside going forward. Keep in mind he’s only 23 currently, his best ball is coming up. He was insanely raw coming out of college, one positive undeniably is he has a true LB mentality he’s high energy and loves to hit you can’t teach grit.

He doesn't fit our defense at all. He's not big enough to play NT, and he's too short with an even shorter wingspan to play DE for us. So we traded up for someone who belongs in a 4-3. Draft is not going great. 

This guy is more than big enough to be a NT, he was easily one of the best NT in college football last year. Dude is strong as an ox watch the tape this guy eats up gaps and allows linebackers to flow behind him.

Hear me out we need a young guy to compete. Would yall rather have just Pickett? If we get Pavia as a UDFA we would be very lucky.

If Rueben Bain falls past the Cheifs at 9 I think Morgan tries to trade up. Morgan was gushing over him in this podcast about a month ago, and said he would not be there at #19. Go to 13:48 to see what I’m talking about.

Dudes all quads no ball ability

Thought he would be something for GB but just never did anything. Really forgot about him quickly; don’t expect anything but it’s never bad to add more bodies and see what shakes out.

He really had hype back in the day, NFL used to prefer power backs a bit more back then. The league is all about speed now, the meta is a Gibbs.

I'm more worried that we already squeezed the last of Brooks' career in those three plays or so already...

Grabbing this guy makes me worry that Brooks isn't being counted on... again.

Aj Dillion is a camp body, dude is considered a meme around the league.

I know Banks is expected healthy before training camp from foot surgery but I don’t think I could gamble on a big man with reoccurring foot injuries at 19. If Dan Morgan picks him I’ll assume they have seen enough of his medicals to not be deterred. 

Banks is such an enigma, he could be a steal at 19 due to his potential. Or he could be a 325 pound injury prone bust who rarely plays. Dude had one great year in 2024 and has been injured since. Personally I just don’t think you take a risk like that in round 1 especially in a year where we have made clear investments into the defense and nailing one more piece could be the difference between a good and great defense.  Give me Kayden McDonald over Banks he might have a lower ceiling but he is a true Junior and one of the best run defending DT’s I’ve personally ever watched.

Please draft a safety 

Would love to see him develop definitely has a huge frame

I really like Gracen Halton, I also love Kayden McDonald. I actually implore people to watch some of his tape, his ability to get off blocks and overwhelm the interior in the run game is beautiful.

He is #98

I’m just happy to have him on the team, it’s fun having athletic freaks on the team. Also, dude was our best special teams player by far last year.

Eli Stowers is gonna be a dude in the league

Nick Dawkins is a great dude, one of the highest character players in this years draft. Would love to see us pick him up him in the 7th or as a UDFA. Fun fact his father was Darryl Dawkins the former basketball player.

Darrell Jackson would be a fantastic pickup for us, I think he could replace 80% of what A’Shawn gave us last year. With more passing rush upside going forward in the future, I’m a big proponent of large framed defensive tackles. Pairing Derrick Brown with another 6’5 35inch arm length DT would be so fun to watch. Let’s continue being huge in the middle, allow our linebackers to flow to the ball uninterrupted.

That big DT from Ohio State is the way I think we go since Banks is made of tissue paper. This team wants to stop the run first and foremost 

I think more people need to watch his tape, dude is an absolute bulldozer in the run game. I genuinely believe drafting Kayden McDonald paired with D Brown and our improved defense that we would have the best run defense in the league.

Filling our holes gives us this flexibility, a trade back paired with BPA would set this franchise even further up.

I’m telling you around the league players that are looking at long term deals on the oline are looking at us. Getting to play next to Damien Lewis, Robert Hunt, and Taylor Moton is a real selling point.

IM SO HAPPYYYYY

I just want to say fug the Saints

I am going to laugh my ass off when your ass is canned morgan, what exactly is the fuging point of bringing in pickett?

Wasting 7.5 mill on a below average backup is actually just dumb

per me, like what does that even mean

Time we actually get an embed tweet or a proper screenshot instead of some lazy 3 words without any contract specifics.

Gives us flexibility to go BPA or a combo of BPA/biggest need. Could see Kenyon Sadiq, but if a good tackle was there I think we pounce. Or were a potential trade down spot.
