  1. It's May. What else is there to talk about?
  2. Man Thor Nystrom does not hold back. Two F's? Detroit looks bad. Charges did well w/ Hampton and Harris and then not so goo.
  3. After watching our front office negotiate with Horn, does anyone really doubt Bryce will get a bag in '26 (or would we risk pushing that out to '27)? We used back to back first round picks on wr's and retooled the oline for him.
  4. Wait until this thread comes up next year for the 2022 class (Ekwonu, Barno, and Mays the only ones still on the team).
  5. Against it. I get that some teams have an advantage because they are in a bad division but some teams have an advantage because they end up with a really weak strength of schedule (or end up facing teams w/ injured players or resting players for the playoffs). Let's face it, NFL teams fluctuate a lot from year to year and we won't know the strength of the schedule played until the end of the season. Why should second place in the NFC East trump first place in the NFC South if the East team had an overall easier schedule?
  6. Is it love when they say you reached for pick number 22 at 8?
  7. Those are bad picks at 8. The draft grade depends on how you view TMac. We viewed him highly (that scares me since our scouts appear to suck at wr eval.). Taking Walker or Williams would have been bad at 8; one was injured for a whole year and the other was a tweener. The move was to trade back. However, if we broadcast we wanted to move up as a smoke screen (which we did) then those trade back offers would have been weak.
  8. The early rumors were T-Mac to us, but the staff did a great job subtlely playing that down so then the speculation turned to Jalon Walker. Carolina needs an edge and why not an edge/ilb? My guess is we were haggling w/ the Rams and 49'ers when the Jets took Membou.
  9. Unless you are in the SEC. Will Campbell got to play against Kyle Kennard (USC), Princely Umanmielen (Ole Miss), Landon Jackson (Ark), Shemar Stewart and Nick Scourton (A&M), Jalon Walker and Mykel Williams (UGA). And those are just the edge rushers not the DT's. The SEC had 79 picks vs. Big 12 31.
  10. I was a fan of Jalon Walker until I started to think about how to use him. SI I would be worried about how he is going to defend run plays and bigger more athletic linemen in the NFL as an Edge. Pearce is intriguing. Needs to add some weight but the guy is extremely athletic with a high ceiling. Trading away your first rounder for a guy with character concerns is risky, but I guess they did their homework.
  11. Last year's draft sucked. I get it has just been a year but trading up after six wr's were already taken was stupid as was trading up to take an injured rb.
  12. Sophomore to senior in one year? What happened to being a junior? I think a 20 year old three year starter with limited injury history and a great year at Purdue is likely to succeed.
  13. We keep having to utilize high draft picks to make up for mistakes. WR #8 McMillian to cover mistakes Mingo and XL; RB #111 Trevor Etienne to make up for mistake Jonathan Brooks.
  14. Don't forget we spent a lot of draft capital in taking Mingo, Legette, and McMillian to give him wr weapons after we spent a fortune to make him the #1. I don't think he will ever live up to being a no. 1 pick but could turn into a serviceable starter.
  15. I wonder what the trade back offers were? It would be interesting to put together a draft using those picks. I did not think we would ever get a chance at Mike Green in the second or that we would pass him up for Scourton. Princely in the third was great value but was it wise to take two edges at that point (probably, he is a really great value there)? I still see Tet as another big body that can't get separation, but i was encouraged by the fact that Bryce and him worked out together in California and have a rapport. If the 49ers and Rams really wanted him too, i am probably wrong on his potential. I was really expecting another turd class like last year and this one is much, much better at first blush. It could be a great draft class...only time will tell at this point.
