Check out Cincinnati's Golday.   I am seeing Lukish qualities (smarts, size, speed, etc)

This is the way. He’s no Luke, but who is? Golday is one of my draft crushes. I’d love him in the 2nd.

What does Aidan Fisher's draft stock look like? Looks like a player to me.

Go watch him on that long TD run by the Miami RB. Yikes. 

Screw it, I'll go against the grain and play devils advocate. We tried the committee approach with Turk Wharton and Bobby Brown at DT instead of just paying a little extra for the blue chip player Milton Williams last offseason..That was a mistake. If we pass on Trey, we'll most likely do the same again.. overpay for JAG's who don't move the needle(Wonnum, Jones, Wharton, Brown). If we like it or not, there's a high chance we are going to have BY for another few years bare minimum. Might as well just accept it, use that extra cap space to build a good team around him like other franchises do with their rookie contract QB, then see what happens. A projected 2 year 50 mill deal for a player who's 1 year removed as the sack leader is not the worst outcome. Plus, that would take pressure off our young edge guys to carry the workload.. Tre played in 7 games last year, still had 4 sacks. Around a 10 sack rate if he plays the entire season. Still better than anyone we have. He was also playing hurt before he finally called it quits for the season. I get that he's 31, but a guy who heavily relies on hand usage, technique etc more than athleticism should still be productive as he ages a little. It's a strong LB class. It would allow us to address LB, OT, with our 1st and 2nd round picks while giving us another year to evaluate Scourton and Princely before we jump the gun on another edge.

As it stands now, yes, a couple OTs are slotted in the early 20's on multiple BBs. 

I assume you’re talking about Proctor and Lomu. I consider them overrated and both risky prospects, but we’ll see what happens. I feel like the value in the 2nd round at OT is way better “bang for your buck” than the late 1st round guys. 

14 what the hell are you doing?!

At 19, it's hard to imagine OT being even close to BPA. I'd rather just draft BPA and figure LT out another way even though it's not ideal. We simply need more blue chip talent.

Ben....don't be stupid....kick the FG.

He’s too arrogant to kick a FG

Who else wants to work there? I don't give a damn about the number 1 pick

Many other coaches would. 11 total coaches have interviewed, Mike McDaniels will make it 12. #1 pick, a lot of cap space, pay raise, no state income tax, warm city.  People say this crap every year about teams, yet it never turns out to be true. 

No chance they hire him. 

Should've just resigned Burns after not accepting the 2 first rounders. He is one of the better "bang for your buck" pass rushers in the league. His contract aged well. Now, we'll keep drafting edge rushers in hopes they produce like Brian Burns when we could've used those picks on other positions.

Professionals don't tank on purpose. You tank because the team sucks and cant win anything. Play the hand you are given and do your best.

Tank as in not trade up for Bryce Young and stay put at 9, keep next years pick which ended at #1 (aka Bears taking Caleb Williams)  We were so bad that year without even trying to tank.

Yeah, not just even Maye. That entire QB class proved way better than the one we got antsy and went all in on.

Makes you wonder who we would’ve picked with the #1 pick.. Williams or Maye. 

I’ll never forgive David Tepper for not having the foresight to tank just one more year and draft the local home grown product Drake Maye. Makes me sick. 

Good hire by the Falcons. 

We have no evidence that Canales is a forward thinker who is willing to make uncomfortable decisions for the betterment of the team. He seems very non confrontational, those types of people won’t make changes unless forced to. Dan Morgan is the same mold as Canales. Which means if changes are made, it’ll only come from one man. That man is David Tepper. But it most likely won’t be until next season. 

I wouldn’t mind trading down and picking up an early second. I love Anthony Hill Jr and Jake Golday but there’s no reason to take them at 19, but there’s a good chance they’ll be gone by our pick #52 

He seemed like a locker room cancer anyways. Good riddance.

At least one guys in the rooms has the balls to say it.. Tired of the same BS from Dave

Can’t believe this got 8 pies. Not saying he’s wrong, but who the hell is Princely? He’s a rookie who barely played. He hasn’t earned the right to say shiit about the coaches. Stay in your lane kid. If it was Dereck Brown for example, then that’s a whole different story. 

Would’ve been nice to have Milton Williams. He was a game wrecker tonight. Prob should’ve matched the Pats offer and sprinkle a little bit more guaranteed $ 

This game is definitely showing why it was the game I was least looking forward to.

Erik Kendricks better than any LB we have by a mile. 

Bills play aggressive defense instead of prevent and they get rewarded. Fug you Evero

Man.. This team has so many needs. It wouldn't be the worst idea to draft a tackle, but there isn't an OT I'm a huge fan of that could be available in the 19 range. Caleb Lomu had a lot of preseason hype, but he had an underwhelming season. Got worked by Texas Tech's edge rushers. Lacks fundamental strength. Kadyn Procter projects better as a guard with his lack of foot speed. The edge rushers leave a lot to be desired in this range as well.

I mean we have nothing at LB. We play zone because we don’t have developed pass rushers. 
 

If we come down with that second INT how many here are singing Evero’s praises?

I want to see us play more man coverage because Horn can do it. But we can’t play man if the front 4 can’t get home.

It's not even about zone vs man. Evero had our guys playing so far off the ball during that last drive, it gave Stafford and the receivers massive passing windows to exploit. I get playing safe with Jaycee hurt, but even if LA scores fast, we get the ball back with much more time left than 38 seconds
