Peebles is off my hokie list. I want Lane, tuten (my fav of the bunch), and ok with strong. Strong is a hit or miss: you put him in zone and he's going to look great. Ask him to cover outside and he's going to give up huge plays down field. He's great when he has help over the top, but doesn't have the recovery speed unfortunately. But damn if he's facing the QB, he's money. I wouldn't want him on speedy slots though. He is a willing tackler too. Comes up and can support in the run game and blitz too. I am afraid he's not quite the athlete to really standup as a slot guy early and that limits his career. Now could be a ST ace. Lane was underutilized. I don't think his track speed always shows on tape. If he gets a runway sure he's gone. Routes are ok but teachable. As a returner he was very good. Again get him a crease and he can flat fly. Big enough to be a true speedy slot guy in the NFL. Now tuten, if he was at a blue blood he'd be gone. Great vision and patience as a runner. What shocked was the explosion and speed. He was injured allot at VT so the tape showed the combine numbers only at times. Much improved as a receiver out of the backfield. Getting a lb on him on a wheel route equalled big chunks. Mediocre as a pass blocker but much improved. Kickoff and put return strengths too. My issues are health. Never 100% as the seasons wore on. Historically VT has had good backs, that never translate for long due to health. As a Blackshear replacement his is an upgrade for sure. I don't think he's a 3 down back but gets 20 snaps a game cause i don't trust the health. Now could he spot start and get 50+ snaps and 20+ carries for a stretch sure, but I wouldn't want to rely on him as the #1 guy for a season.

three years, 3 time we picked a wr in the top 50......... insanity.

LMAO. both teams basically said F this shootout. both sending out Dmen and low experience guys

As a VT fan, powell-ryland isn't a guy I'd put very high on an NFL list. I'm nervous the development path is minimal and he's maxed out physically. I don't see a 3 down guy there. Savion jones is the untapped potential guy. He's worth a look as that's rare size speed and length. I get it, the production isn't there. But he'd be a solid guy that late (4th) that sticks for all downs in multiple systems. Diggs is a guy that might stick 3 downs in a 3-4 as an OLB. He's built longer than APR so I get why APR is so low on this list. He's like APR that he's older for the class and worry the potential jump is smaller than some of the others.

Ovi tied the great one at home tonight. F' NYI and hope that he gets it there, but if not, the next home game for the caps is against the canes this week.

Wanted before the combine. Wanted to trade back to get him. This class is weak and would totally consider a safety at 8. Cover safety who can also play in the box as a LB even.

He's gone. I doubt he last mid now which sucks. Wanted Herbert and got Blackshear who was blah at VT. Tuten is great and the speed was on tape.

Jaylin Lane come on down. As one of what the 4 VT fans on this board, I can say the tape matches the results. He is gonna be a steal. Love to grab him. Now tuten was my sleeper pick at rb. A few crazy folks had him in round 1 and as a VT fan I thought it was crazy. But he went bananas this week. And the production was there, but he never stayed healthy and VT RBs get used up before the NFL.

Wtf did the kicker do. Why bat the ball instead of catching it!!!!!!

I mean the TE went full Ian Thomas, and you don't go full Ian.

Who has a worse weapons Panthers or chargers. Cause this charger team has nothing outside ladd

Ladd got hands on it. Right through them. Ball definitely tumbled into the DB It was high though. Cause Herbert had pressure and over reacted to in his face

Dionte Johnson sighting lol

That throw with a guy on him damn!

Says the guy going if if if?

Just like the cfb playoffs leads a quick drive to end a half. Real kicker got it done to end this 1st half. He doesn't run often but showed how he really can when he wants. Stroud is the guy.

i know others already chimed in, but yeah im there too. at some point its going to happen. having 4 or all 5 guys up front making bank hurts the rest of the team. they are great, but need some funds spread on over to the defense so we dont get run over all year after year

zack wilson. all the talent in the world and a terrible jets org messed up another one. he's a long term reclamation project. maybe just maybe Sean Payton already got 1 year of that done. id still think he needs another 1 or 2 before he might actually be ready cause the jets set him back from his college days. yes that how bad the jest have proven to be with QBS (wilson sandwiched in between darnold and rodgers)

Rourke on down are fine to pick up at 200 or later, imo value vs what we got in plummer. i think beck drops like a rock and someone takes a stash on that guy. im still ok with ewers, but not in rnd 1 and hes gone before we pick again. and no dont move up or down to go get him. 50s well thats a different and i would understand the appeal.

watched Blackshear in college, cant believe he stuck. congrats to him, but he's a ST guy at best. Tuten is a low profile guy. unfortunately i dont think i would draft him as i fear the meds. VT RBs are run down in college the last 3 decades. hes a shorter lighter guy. idk if he can 100% stick at the NFL level, but he has been nothing short of impressive, when healthy, at VT and there shitty pass game. he carried that offense for stretches the last 2 years. ollie gordon is an interesting guy that gets very little draft press this year. already a good reciever out of the backfield and great record on the ground the last 2 years. think he slides as he didnt backup the 2023 numbers on a bad team and hes a guy that needs a strong OL to realy highlight what he can do to a secondary. hes a load that looks for contact, but needs that runway to get going. start stop and hard cuts are not his thing. good/great in pass pro, and competent hands. backend of 5, sure take the flier, if you get him a runway with the line we have, he could produce on all phases. and my best for last is nick singleton. he was a monster as a true freshman at PSU. good not great overall production the last 2 years, but that RB room is stacked and both guys split carries. really developed as a blocker and pass catcher this year. take gordon and add the start stop and agility, but with lot less carries overall. personally he's up in the top 5 for me this class. if he drops to the 5th, sprint the card up. i think if we didnt heavily invest in the position, rnd 4 would be fine if he fell there too. i could see him taken early based on a big time combine, freshman year production, and great rate production every year. hes a little more boom, bust and still figuring stuff out, but PSU has such a crazy amount of talent in the RB room, he hasnt had the game reps of others to fully figure it out.

He would unlock brown as the UT and let teams have to decide to double in the middle of we go 4-3. Brown give us options to take a guy like walker. Then again I prefer grant to all. Think that size, power, quick twitch is top notch. He's not a flashy tactician and that's the real rub.

So Oregon folds in the playoffs again, no way. Guess they should have worn the maze and green that's almost blue to scare off the buckeyes cause this is a bloodbath.

Detroit allowed an average of 32.5 the last 4 weeks yet scored 37.5 a week over that span. They are one of the best offenses in the league even without montgomery. They are the #1 in points per game. They are riding that offensive juggernaut hard there. We average 2tds a game less than that Detroit team. Overall they had a better defense and better 1st and 2nd stringers to start. We are pulling PS guys weekly to start and the backups are PS guys in sub packages. Hell the 32.5 allowed is worse than our yearly average yet they won 3 out of 4 games... Also got the dysfunctional bears in there keeping that average down. They faced that bears team twice the last 5 weeks which helps pad the defensive stats for sure. They also got the jags and titans a few weeks earlier to help out with the banged up defense float. let's be real, bears, jags, titans and Richardson lead colts are battling us in offensive output, so no really challenges there. Detroit will really get the test in the playoffs, as the offense has bailed them out a bunch, well until the bills hung 48 on them 3 games ago. They are the team everyone wants to see win it all, but I think they legitimately have real trouble once the playoffs start with all the season ending injuries they racked up and having to ask Goff and co to go ham 4 straight games.

6th, sure absolutely. That's easy and can jettison ol plummer at a minimum.

If anything, it boosted his stock more. With him they were great 1st half, 31 points, 3 TDS after the fumble to start the game. then 10 points in the 2nd with williams. Oh and the guy that helped him all year at wr sat so.... Yeah Ward just makes plays. Kinda that guy that lifts everyone but that's taboo here ATM with the last guy said was going to be that style QB. I get it he didn't play the full game and got his stats and sat. Good. If he got hurt, it's millions it cost him. That record may stand a while regardless of how he does in the pros. He made it through with the record and not getting hurt, that's a W.
